My lessons are structured to be both engaging and effective, blending different teaching methods to suit each student's learning style. Normally, I start with a quick icebreaker game to create a more relaxing environment, then review previous material to reinforce understanding, and introduce new concepts in a clear, step-by-step manner. I use a mix of visual aids, real-world examples to keep things interesting and ensure the content sticks.
I aim to tailor each lesson to align with the student's curriculum and specific learning objectives. I focus on building a strong foundation while also applying my knowledge. I incorporate practice problems and quizzes to assess progress and identify areas for improvement.

The dynamics of my lessons are all about creating a positive and supportive environment. I encourage students to ask questions, share their thoughts, and actively participate in discussions. I believe in fostering a growth mindset, where mistakes are seen as opportunities to learn and improve. Drawing from my experience tutoring students from the ages of 7 to 11 in groups and subjects, I have developed a way of identifying individual learning styles and adapting my approach accordingly.
