Primary school School Teacher offering support and confidence!

I am a primary school teacher and have an excellent knowledge of the English language, its vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation. I’m also aware of the different ways that English changes depending on the situation and the audience. This may be about varying levels of formality, complexity or directness, or finding the appropriate specialist vocabulary.

I have the ability to hold a conversation and correct my student’s English at the same time. I’m a good listener, both to the content of a person’s speech and to the way they speak. I can keep up with the thread of the conversation, asking questions at the same time as noting mistakes or making suggestions for improvement. Depending on the situation, I may correct immediately or wait for an appropriate moment to offer feedback.

Focus and Flexibility: I work with my students to find the right format and subject matter for lessons. As we progress I keep their goals in mind and through experience I know when to stick to the plan and when to change the focus or the pace of the lessons.

I take a friendly and patient approach to conversation and teaching, together with an interest in people, languages and the world.

I have a sense of humour and a strong motivation to help people communicate better, both in oral and written English tasks.

I relish the prospect of a new and exciting experience in helping others to become proficient when using our English language.

I also enjoy teaching maths and reading - so feel free to contact me if I can be of help!
