Anything English! ELL Teacher with many years of experience teaching both children and adult learners.
Methodology
If I had to name my teaching style, it would be “Interactive and Inspiring.” I currently teach middle school language learners, as well as adult learners, with varying language proficiency and objectives. As I utilise a combination of teaching techniques and strategies derived from traditional as well as more modern approaches, I cannot say that I heavily favour one approach in particular over others. I consider myself a facilitator of a repertoire of tools borrowed from many teaching approaches. I plan and create learning activities with appropriate scaffolding and clear objectives, that allow students with different needs, access language learning and acquisition, and therefore meet their language learning objectives.
Background
Accomplished English Language Learning Teacher with solid academic background and extensive practical experience in teaching English as a second language, program development and implementation, progress evaluation, and classroom management. Outstanding pedagogic acumen combined with excellent relationship building and communication abilities. Here is a link to a sample lesson with video -(concealed information)
