Rita Nchoku Noukwi

I would say I have been tutoring for 8years. 2 years in my home country and 6 years tutoring in China. My approach to tutoring is always tutor-learner centered. I encourage learners to speak confidently and I also encourage them to change their narrative of "my English is not good" to " I am highly proficient in speaking English". I use the relevant equipments and materials needed for tutoring like the whiteboard, markers or chalk, computers. I believe using the above to tutor facilitates the understanding of the learners as far as the subject matter is concerned. I also believe not every student is the same therefore, my interpersonal attributes like communication, empathy and patience are very helpful for me when working with different types of students. In class I establish a good rapport with the students. I do something interesting to capture the class' attention. Then I encourage all students to participate. I also showcase my dramatic skills especially when reading a story to the class. The story can be acted by the students and tutoring necessary to make the class more interesting. As mentioned before, I have a total of eight years experienced as an English tutor. I got a variety of skills such as: strong communication skills, subject knowledge, teaching skills including classroom management, Adaptability that is, ability to adjust teaching methods to accommodate different learning styles. Creativity, empathy and patience, assessment skills, technology proficiency and cultural awareness. Understanding and respecting diverse backgrounds and perspectives.
