Hello, My name is Michael. I am an English Teacher with over 6 years of experience teaching online Business English, preparing students for IELTS exams, Interview preparations, and basic English Conversation, and three years of experience in Public speaking coaching and Fluency Coaching. Other than my vast experience with teaching business English to beginners I have also taught adult learners over the age of 40 who are just getting introduced to the English Language.
I love working with people in lifting their confidence for their work or personal interactions.
I love reading and take a number of culinary lessons. My scope of reading spans the areas of Business and World HistoryMe as a Teacher
I have six years of experience in teaching in general and three years of experience teaching online. I hold a TESOL Certificate and I am also a Certified Leadership Trainer. For my English language, I take a very versatile approach depending on the needs and goals of my students. I like to have an open conversation to assess my students and be able to give them feedback on what I believe we can work on.
It could be fluency improvements, writing skills, pronunciation accuracy, sentence construction, and understanding. My sessions typically involve reading practices, grammar exercises, word pronunciation and topical-based studiesMy lessons & teaching style
My class sessions mainly start with open conversations that allow me to learn about my student and also make an assessment of how best can help them make improvements. i like to ask the student what goals or targets they may have and also get to have a picture of what weaknesses or strengths they believe they have in English.
My approach may take a contextual or topical approach to get the student to understand the use of nouns and verbs. These go on to take a role play-based approach to help the student apply the right use of tenses, adjectives, and pronouns. I also like to take on new word challenges to teach my students new words. I also like to give pronunciation exercisesMy teaching material

Michael is giving me the opportunity to speak, while listening and helping me get my english to the next level.
We are having great and interesting conversation, learning new high level vocabulary, and also having a good time laughing together.
Huge recommendation if someone wants to get his/her english much better.
