My lessons are tailored to each individual student’s needs and learning style. I use variety of formats which includes one-on-one sessions, group lessons, online classes, depending on the platform agreed and what is convenient for students.
I focus on 4 major areas of learning, which are reading, writing, listening and speaking. I use range of materials which includes textbooks, articles, videos, games, to keep the lessons engaging. Also I try to connect with students to understand their interests and goal, to enable them have develop more interest in learning.
I encourage open communication to ensure student is making progress and feeling confident in their English skills.

In terms of experience, in my home country, After the completion of an undergraduate degree, each student is mandated to go for a (one year) voluntary service for the country before engaging with the labour market for job acquisition. For this program, I was assigned to teach English language, which I did for one year, during this, I prepared my student for series of in state and inter state debates which I got awards for. I worked with students of all ageS and levels, from beginner to advanced and helped them improve their English proficiency for various purposes, such as academic, and personal. I taught them both in classroom setting and in a private settings as well, I went further to schedule and made arrangements for online learning for them to enable them keep a good touch at studies.
In conclusion, my goal as an English teacher is to create a comfortable and supportive learning environment where the student feels motivated and empowered to achieve their language goals.
