Start test- What is your favorite way of introducing new words to English Learners?
English is such a complex Language yet simplifies as one advances. Introduction to new words help people differentiate words that may have the same meaning however is situation and noun dependent. How are some ways you as a Tutor, introduce new words to your students?

Students can be introduced to new words, by using pictures, flashcards, playing word games or even through conversation. Tutors can bring up new words and challenge the students to guess the meanings, build sentences or guess the opposites, of the words etc.
- What are your unique ways of Teaching English online?
Everyone has their own teaching method, It would be nice if we could all share how each of us goes about teaching - other than the obvious. For example; I do Key Cards and we do role play. If when during the dialogue there are discrepancies, we will then work on the structure, word, or tense that needs attention.

I try to use different tools as much as possible. Blooket, kahoot, bamboozle, lyricstraining and many more. It's important to have fun while learning English. We talk about hypothetical scenarios etc.
- What questions do you ask your new students to get to know them?
crwdns2631929:0crwdne2631929:0
Introduce yourself, ask questions about student interest, what goal they want to reach, what they struggle with, maybe do a level test first, then give feedback. Lesson after the Trial lesson, do a free talk conversation about student hobbies to see how the grammar, pronunciation, and sentence structure are. In this way, you will start to know your student. This is only my opinion.
- What are the key supplementary skills teachers should develop to improve their teaching?
What additional skills should teachers cultivate beyond the essential teaching abilities required for their subject area?

I would definately put Tech Skills on the top rung up the prime skills ladder--because when that virtual classroom video conferencing app crashes or you get stuck upside down in a meeting, its always fun to pretend you planned it all along. Some Emotional Intelligence goes a long way into being able to read the students' faces and figuring out if they are right out confused or they are plotting their escape from your horrendous clutches(you evil teacher). Oh, Time Management? That's just the art of being able to not let the lesson spiral into condemned chaos...as in from getting along like a house on fire... to total a building being burnt to ashes and you and the student being incinerated in the process. And finally, have a Laugh while you are at(a bit of Humor goes a long way), since we are falling over grammar, tripping and slipping, we might as well as Chuckle along the way!

If your teaching profile stands out and aligns with what students are seeking, they'll reach out to you. Getting started can be tough, and building a student base takes time. So, hang in there, concentrate on delivering excellent trial lessons, and good ratings, reviews, and word of mouth will take you a long way. Best of luck! 😎

Concentrate on the social media platforms where your target audience spends their time, like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Make sure your profiles are public and easy to find. Share tips, quizzes, or fun facts about English and its culture. And remember to include relevant hashtags to boost your visibility. Good luck! 😎
- What are the key elements of your profile that makes you stand out to potential students?
crwdns2631929:0crwdne2631929:0
What makes me stand out is my focus on personalized learning. I believe that each student is one-of-a-kind, so I take the time to evaluate their strengths and weaknesses before designing a customized learning plan. I make sure to incorporate topics that interest my students, which helps make lessons more engaging, whether we're working on conversation skills, essay writing, or exam prep. This tailored approach not only boosts their confidence but also encourages a love for the English language. Additionally, the feedback from my current and former students is essential, as happy students are likely to recommend me to their friends and acquaintances. Word of mouth is a powerful tool. 😎
