Hi! I am more than glad to provide you with my short bio, the format for teaching, and the dynamics of your lessons.

First of all, I am a Professor of applied linguistics and educational technology with 10+ years of experience in higher education at the Lebanese University. I am a supervisor for a Ph.D. and MA dissertations. Furthermore, I am editor and reviewer for many local and international peer-reviewed journals. I am, also, Interested in MOOC, educational foundation and administration, artificial intelligence, curriculum and instruction, computational/socio/psycho/applied linguistics, language acquisition, morphology, language assessment, CALL, TEFL, EAP, IELTS and TESOL.

Second, Sine you are opting for online classes, the lessons will likely be conducted through video conferencing platforms, such as Zoom or GoogleMeet. These lessons may be one-on-one with or in a small group with other learners. The content of the lessons will depend on the level you are at and the goals you want to achieve. It may include grammar rules, vocabulary, pronunciation, reading comprehension, writing skills, and conversation practice. It might also include morphology, research methodology, language acquisition, etc.

Third, potential dynamics will be revealed as such:
Video conferencing: I use video conferencing platforms such as Zoom, Skype, or Google Meet to conduct live lessons. This allows for face-to-face communication, as well as the ability to share screens, present slides, and use whiteboards for visual aids.
Interactive exercises: I can create for you interactive exercises such as quizzes, games, and puzzles that can be completed online. This can help make the lessons more engaging and encourage active participation from students.
Conversation practice: Speaking and listening skills are essential components of learning English, and online lessons can provide opportunities to practice speaking with the teacher or with other students in a group setting.
Feedback and correction: My online lessons provide the opportunity for immediate feedback and correction to students, which is crucial for improving your language skills. I use screen sharing and annotation tools to provide real-time feedback on written work or presentations.

Therefore, learning will become dynamic and effective at your convenience. Looking forward to seeing you.
