- warm 🌞, caring and approachable🤝
- Focus 👀 on active engagement - Usually students learn better when they are actively participating in class, my job is to facilitate my students learning progress instead of feeding them information.
- Building confidence 💪- Regular speaking 🗣️ opportunities in class reduces the students anxiety of speaking🗣️ a foreign language and boost their confidence💪.
- Discussion - Promotes learning🧠✍️ through interaction while students practice their speech🗣️ and words pronounciation. My lessons & teaching style
- More STT (student talking🗣️ time⌚). - Less TTT (Teacher talking🗣️ time⌚).
- PPP (Present, Practice, Produce)
⭐PRESENT - The target language to upgrade,grammar,vocabulary,pronunciation & functions.
⭐PRACTICE - Exercises such as fill in the gap, multiple choice or sentence transformation.
⭐PRODUCE - An opportunity to practice the language in a personalised way. eg, role play, writing articles & stories. Some students prefer learning with visuals,audio or discussion.

I just had my second lesson with teacher Thobile and I’m really enjoying it. She provides study materials, assigns homework, and goes through the corrections with the student, explaining everything step by step and helping to improve pronunciation. I highly recommend her !!
