My teaching style involves doing and showing. I always have visual and audio aids and don't rely only on reading, as we all have different learning styles. My class usually starts with some form of revision or game to refresh the students mind. This is followed by checking the homework together and allowing the students to try to identify and correct their own mistakes. Then we dive into the lesson.

I prepare my own teaching with the help of the parent/students' requests. I mostly teach grammar, speaking, comprehension and beginner lever writing.

The slides come with homework activities including activities to do with parents and friends outside of class.

I encourage English-speaking in class. This is to help my students feel more comfortable speaking English and allows them to rely less on their home language.

I haven't had much difficulty with my current students. I remain patient, understanding and kind as learning English can be frightening for some students. Especially those afraid to fail but I believe that anyone of any age can do it.

Trying and failing is better than not trying at all.
