Hello, my name is Simphiwe but you can call me Sim . I am from a Country called South Africa in the capital city which is Pretoria . I am currently an Undergraduate University student studying towards a Bachelor Degree in Education at the University of Pretoria so I am basically studying towards being a professional English and History Teacher . I am passionate about languages and learning about different cultures and how different people from all around the world co-exist, as we speak I can speak 7 languages and still learning Mandarin . I also love reading books and participating in debates in order to sharpen my Language skills . I aspire to travel the world one day .
Me as a Teacher
I have tutored English for the past 2 years , during this time I have learnt a lot about how different people think about various aspects of life. I have also learnt how to be an effective communicator. I am a teacher who is relaxed, funny and who does her best in ensuring that all her students achieve their language goals. So go ahead and book a lesson with me !!!
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching is relaxed and engaging. I plan my lessons according to my students needs and goals. I always encourage my students to be open-minded and enthusiastic about learning English. I am not only there to teach them the English, I am also there to motivate them so that they do not give up on their learning because learning a foreign language is challenging enough .
