Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My teaching approach is based entirely around YOUR desires, needs and expectations. I focus on what YOU need and I let that guide what I teach and how I teach it.
I discover what you already know and understand, then I build from there using many different learning materials and activities.
I use an easy, communicative approach with clear, attainable goals for each lesson.
You can select the lesson topics you want from a very wide range; from more personalized things, such as everyday dialogues and common activities/situations to topics such as news stories, famous people, places, things etc.
Firstly, I will present the new material, we will practice it together and then finally you can perform the new language.
I will assess how well you did and give you positive feedback, any constructive criticisms i.e. in what things you might improve and how, and I will give you lots of encouragement.
We can focus on a particular skill that you need to develop more than others, for example, writing or pronunciation, or presentation skills.
Learning should be mostly fun, so, if desired, I will keep the grammar down to a minimum and I will always encourage you to do as much speaking as possible.
