Helping others to understand how they can make money at comfort of their homes and using their electronic gadgets,it always make me feels superb because i will knowing that i am changing someone's life .
I was descending the street and stumbled upon , what seemed to be, a native English speaker walking a lively husky dog. I struck up a conversation with him commenting on the dog. His immediate response to me was as verbatim as I can remember: ' Wow, your accent (or English) is so good, you must be from England. Now that event gave me a flush of pride.
The most memorable means the most meaningful for me. It is about connecting the people from so many different countries, worlds and still being able to understand each other no matter what. I think it's very beautiful thing. Also having a chance to help kids who lives even in deep countrysides of Asia to learn English and be able to connect with them thanks to this is amazing. And after my experience of working in Thailand, now I can remember all the warm and nice conversations, culture exchanges with my former students:)

I mostly use lesson topic-related sources, such as TED talk videos, Podcasts, or songs. I try to teach them in context and use visuals if needed. I use the MFP ( meaning, form, pronunciation) method for teaching and encourage the students to make sentences using the words. This way, students will have a clear understanding of how to use the word in the context and the correct preposition, if needed.
- 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 like to have conversations based on the student's interests. I have a wide range of hobbies and experiences, so we're bound to connect on a few topics we have in common.

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.
