I aim to make them fun but informative. You will soak up a lot without realising it. We can listen to music and play games for a more chilled session as these will still massively help you. I will see what you struggle with most to begin with after testing your level. We will work together at a pace comfortable for you and discuss whatever questions you may have. Mistakes are encouraged! If you aren’t making mistakes now but later- that is so much worse. Making mistakes now can help solidify the foundations in your head and prevent you from repeating them when it matters. I will do mini tests but not to make you feel pressured. These will be set to test how much of what we talked about worked and how much of it stuck. For this I will use either past paper questions or make my own version in a similar fashions. This could include: translations, readings, listenings, and possibly testing your speaking ability’s progression. After we see what went well and what could be even better, I will make a plan using what I’ve learnt to support you better. By starting with a baseline this will be something you can refer back to and see how much progress you’ve made. By the end you should feel like you could easily do better in less time with confidence. Independent work is also key so if you aren’t working on your own as well this may not help as much and as quickly as you would like.
