I am a PhD candidate majoring in TESOL and Applied Linguistics, I can provide lessons to students aged 6-11 and 18-22 (preferred) in English (EAP) reading, writing, and speaking.

Advert description
I am proficient in teaching within smaller groups, typically ranging from 1 to 6 students, but I find that one-on-one sessions are more effective for providing personalized instruction and teaching. Consider a scenario where a student aged 6-11 aims to enhance their English speaking skills, particularly focusing on improving conversational abilities. In such a case, my approach would involve the following steps: (1) Initiate a Conversation: I will begin by engaging in a conversation with the student to understand their motivation for wanting to improve oral skills and the specific goals they aim to achieve. Design Interactive Online Activities: Following the initial conversation, I will design interactive online activities tailored to the student's needs. These activities may encompass various topics such as greetings, small talk in daily life, discussions about cultural differences, particularly focusing on the weather in the UK and conversations about food. (2) Encourage Active Participation: Throughout the session, my emphasis will be on encouraging the student to actively participate in the activities. This will involve prompting them to express themselves verbally and fostering a supportive environment for language development. (4) Optimal Session Duration: Considering the student's age, I recognize the importance of maintaining an optimal session duration. Therefore, the entire process will be structured to not exceed 45 minutes, ensuring an effective and engaging learning experience within suitable attention spans. Similar steps but longer time spans for adult students for more specific focuses.
