I typically start off with 5 minutes of normal conversation. I then move onto understanding what the student has learnt from their school lessons that week or day, to be able to reinforce what they’ve learnt and help them understand concepts or words they don’t know.

I would then move onto a reading comprehension and guide them through reading and answering the questions. After that I would introduce a writing task and explain how to complete it.

Ideally, I would leave the student with one short homework task to complete for the next session so that we could go through and correct any mistakes or misunderstandings. This homework task would be for reinforcing what I teach in the sessions.

These sessions can be over zoom, google meet, teams, etc. Whatever fits best. I will also send the material to the student to have for the session. These sessions can range from 1-2 hours at a time with a max of 3 sessions a week.
