Me as a Teacher
Do you enjoy speaking about music, food, culture, society, life in general, and even some controversial topics? Then I am the teacher for you.
I specialise in teaching grammar and vocabulary in a fun, engaging, and contextual way, to connect with my students on a personal level and really get to know about their lives and opinions.
I include a lot of conversation to encourage students to practise grammar in everyday speech to show how the rules are linked to natural conversation.
My lessons & teaching style
I simply connect with each person I teach, and their personality becomes the focus of the lesson. Their goals, dreams and aspirations about learning English become what I see in them and I move towards achieving those goals with them.
