For the past five months, I've been fulfilling a rewarding role as a City Year UK student mentor at Hatch End High School. Here, I directly support students in their English studies, providing them with individualized guidance and helping them overcome challenges. This experience builds upon my previous role at the university as a student learning assistant, where I honed my skills in assisting international students. In that role, I helped them improve their English proficiency and grasp of academic concepts, fostering a more inclusive learning environment.

Communication and Clarity: Proven ability to explain complex concepts clearly and understandably.
Intercultural Competence: Comfortable working with students from diverse backgrounds (experience with international students).
Teaching Approach
My teaching approach focuses on active learning and individualized support. I'll utilize a variety of methods to keep students engaged, such as:
Interactive Activities: Games, discussions, and group work to make learning English dynamic and enjoyable.
Clear Explanations: Breaking down complex concepts into easy-to-understand steps.
Differentiated Instruction: Providing materials and activities that cater to different learning styles and paces.
