Hello everyone!
My name is Anthea Michael. I am 49 years old and the owner of a daycare in South Africa. I thus enjoy working with young learners but am open to students of all ages. I also assist with homework, assignments, reading classes and writing of essays. I have experience with adult literacy as well.
My hobbies include:
- Reading
- Writing
- Baking
I also have extensive experience in tutoring students ages 6 to 13. I believe that each student is unique, and thus learns in different ways. I always structure my lessons as per the students needs.
My lessons will mainly be conversational based, but it can be modified to what suits you best as a student. I am very enthusiastic as a teacher, and try to make my lessons as fun as possible, while simultaneously ensuring that my students get the most out each lesson. With that being said, the goals of my student is most important.
Besides the daycare center, I have spent some time teaching juvenile offenders in a correctional facility. I went there on a Wednesday morning and it was part of a literacy program. I also currently tutor school kids of all ages.
I lay the basic foundation, as I believe we often underestimate the importance of our basic "a,b,c's". I use drawings and pictures and make it fun by adding games. I engage my learners and make sure they are as involved as I am. Its also important for me to know my learner, as this helps to create an understanding of which method will work best. So I don't just set up a standard lesson and present it. I use my audience as my guide.
