My teaching methods are student-centered, interactive, and adaptable to the needs of the learners. I believe in creating an engaging and supportive environment that promotes active participation and critical thinking.

Communicative Language Teaching (CLT):
Focus on real-life communication skills.
Use role-plays, dialogues, and group discussions to build fluency and confidence.

Task-Based Learning (TBL):
Design tasks that simulate real-world situations (e.g., writing emails, giving presentations, or navigating daily life).

Encourage students to use language authentically to complete these tasks.
Differentiated Instruction:

Tailor lessons to different learning styles (visual, auditory, kinesthetic).
Offer varied activities like games, videos, and hands-on projects to cater to diverse abilities.
Feedback and Assessment:

Provide constructive feedback regularly to help students understand their progress.
Use formative assessments (quizzes, peer reviews) to identify areas for improvement.

My lessons cover all language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. I integrate grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation naturally into lessons

I encourage a collaborative and respectful classroom environment where students feel comfortable expressing themselves.

This dynamic and learner-focused approach ensures that my students develop practical language skills and grow in confidence as communicators.

I prioritize creating a safe space for mistakes, as I believe errors are opportunities for growth.
