I am from a beautiful country of South Africa. And I'm Passionate about teaching and I teach effectively and transferring my skills to my students, I am ambitious and goal driven, I thrive on challenges and set goals for my future, When I put my mind to reach a goal I strive towards and I am always looking for an opportunity to do better. I am a fun and dynamic teacher. In my classes, I like to focus on conversation fluidity, emphasizing grammar. My strategy for expanding my vocabulary is learning and applying words by reading about culture worldwide. I like to keep my classes as interesting as possible by engaging in conversation and learning about anthropology. My ultimate goal is to provide a productive, worthwhile class that is enjoyable for everyone. I had a great pleasure of teaching children aged 6-12 years old in a classroom at primary, and also I am a local assistant teacher and online English tutor. During my teaching journey I have gained a lot of experience learning about the different culture and interests. My teaching styles are first allowing my students as a tutors to create an environment where they can make mistakes and learn from those mistakes. I literally best described as interactive, supportive and transparent. I like setting realistic objectives which enables students to learn effectively. And also I encourage my students to ask questions when they don't understand or have questions to ask, participate in conversation and respond actively during discussions. I like using questions to test the understanding and progress of my lesson. I pride myself upon using effectively materials like, props to help understanding, videos to gain more information, fun activities to enable a lively and comfortable learning environment and delivery of my lesson.
