Ishika Sanghera

My lessons are defined by a high-energy, immersive, and student-centered approach, drawing on my extensive background as a Spanish Scholar and ESOL teacher. I structure each session to be a balance of academic rigor and creative exploration, ensuring that students develop a natural intuition for both the language and its culture.
Lesson Dynamics & Format
I utilize a varied and interactive format tailored to the learner’s specific level. A typical session includes:

Active Engagement: We begin with speaking practice and listening tasks to build immediate confidence.

Visual & Kinesthetic Learning: I incorporate flashcards, memory games, and quizzes to make vocabulary acquisition both effective and enjoyable.

Literacy & Logic: Lessons are anchored by comprehension tasks, story writing, and reading tasks designed to sharpen analytical skills.

Bespoke Content: Using my experience in designing interactive worksheets, I create custom exercises that replace rote memorization with fun, engaging tasks.
The Experience Behind the Method
My methodology is informed by over three years of working with children and adults in diverse settings—from leading primary school language clubs to mentoring GCSE pupils. This breadth of experience allows me to adapt quickly to different learning styles, ensuring that every lesson is a proactive, supportive environment where students are encouraged to excel through imaginative and practical application.

My approach to teaching is fuelled by my vibrant, high-energy personality and a genuine passion for making complex subjects accessible. I am naturally enthusiastic and imaginative, which allows me to transform traditional lesson plans into memorable, play-based experiences. I believe that a child’s best work happens when they are having fun, so I prioritize building a warm, supportive rapport that encourages them to take risks and express themselves.

To keep lessons engaging, I move away from the "desk and textbook" model, instead utilizing:

Gamified Learning: I turn vocabulary and grammar into competitive quizzes and memory games, making the learning process feel like a reward rather than a chore.

Creative Immersion: Drawing on my experience designing primary school clubs, I use storytelling, role-play, and flashcards to bring the language and culture to life.

Interactive Multi-Sensory Tasks: I incorporate listening challenges and arts-based activities to cater to different learning styles, ensuring that every session is dynamic and unpredictable.

Positive Reinforcement: My proactive nature ensures I am always celebrating small wins, keeping pupils excited and encouraged to reach the next milestone.
