Farima Manouchehri

I am writing to express my interest in the position of an online tutor. I have been teaching English for more than 7 years to all levels and age groups. I have also hold various educational workshops in terms of improving the English knowledge of my students. In my classes I always use the communicative approach since I believe students need to be engaged in order to fully comprehend the target language. I also employ the most authentic materials in my classes such as movies, music, and story books, in order to further my knowledge in teaching. I have participated in numerous CELTA Based teacher training workshops such as designing freer activities as well as contextualization in the classroom.

I have taught both face to face and online classes and during the Corona pandemic I designed creative lesson plans integrated with the use of technology in my online classes. I believe a good classroom is one in which students are led into a path to discovery learning by the teacher which is done by a lot of elicitations and students’ participations in the class. Students talk in my classes therefore, STT is high and TTT is kept to minimum. In my online classes I am capable to work with varies platforms such as zoom and google meeting.

I have excellent communication skills with the ability to convey all the necessary information to students in addition, I tend to create a great rapport with my students because I believe students learn the best when they feel they are in a safe environment. I am a team player and believe in a team work also, I strongly believe teachers in a team should share their skills and information and learn from each other. Enclosed resume contains a comprehensive look at my education background and skills relevant to this position.
