- What are some strategies when the teacher does not speak the students’ native language?
Some good ways to facilitate communication is through using body language (act it out), pictures or visual aids and by using simple, straightforward English spoken in a natural voice but at a slower rate.

I am an English native speaker, but I also teach Vietnamese language for adult foreigners (which is my second language, though I am a non-native Vietnamese speaker). Through a lot of experimentation I found that for me, what works best, is focusing on the techniques/methodology/learning resources & breakthrough moments that took my Vietnamese to the next level as opposed to a traditional ESL structure. As a result of this I have observed my students becoming more motivated to keep studying and often they are able to modify my learning methods based on their preferred style of learning to find an efficient strategy for themselves. Having said that, I think children or young learners will benefit from more predictably-structured learning.

Be prepared to adapt to unexpected situations, such as technical glitches or questions that you didn't anticipate. Try to stay calm and composed. Show your teaching methods, explain concepts clearly, provide real-life examples, and use varied teaching techniques to cater to different learning style. Also manage your time effectively. Don't rush through the content, but also don't exceed the allocated time. Practice beforehand to gauge the timing.

"is" is the correct form because there must be subject-verb agreement and in this case the word "information" is the main subject and it's an uncountable noun with no plural form in English. This is one of the most confusing issues in the English language but there are specific rules that dictate which case to use with regards to "is" vs "are". The tricky part of this sentence is the word "details" and one could assume that the verb is closest to the noun "detail" but we must be careful and see that the whole sentence can be counted as one collective unit and this is why most software will give "is" as the correct form.

- How many students do you have in total? Can you make a living from your tutoring job?

I have 1 student on LiveXP at the moment. I've had lessons with many students on other platforms, but they are not regular students. I could probably make a living from my current tutoring situation if I lived in other countries, but not in the US, where I currently live.

In my case, it took over 2 months to get the first student on LiveXP. I was highly surprised, can even say confused, when I got the unexpected notification from the platform. 😂
