English lessons for children
Throughout my 3 years experience teaching English, majority of my students have been children so I have a lot of expertise in this area
Conversational English
I understand the issues non native speakers have when conversing in English so I do choose interesting topics to encourage and improve conversational skills
Working with English people
I have worked alongside English people for the majority of my life
Having English friends
All of my friends speak English so I am aware of the jargons used
Reading and writing English
I am quite comfortable teaching one to read and write English. As a Linguistics graduate, I will be able to make you read and write English like a professional
Marrying a native English
I am currently married to a native speaker of English so I can help you with day to day conversations
About

Experience
I have been an English tutor for more than 3 years. My students have ranged from 8 to 38 years old.
Teaching Approach
I have a multimodal approach to learning so I may use props while teaching, gestures and also a lot of repetition. I also ensure I correct any mistakes made by the student and I encourage speaking
