I tailor my lessons depending on my client's level of English, wants and needs. I mainly try to focus on comprehension of the language, since I believe it is the key. Being able to speak at least 4 languages myself, I have derived some key studying practices. I will always be prepared to go extra mile for a client and make it really work for them, writing up a thorough study plan. I really do believe that anyone is capable of learning English, it is just a matter of finding the right individual tools and strengths.
I could say that teaching is my passion. As I am bilingual, I have always been exposed to a vast range of teaching and tutoring opportunities. Since quite a young age, I have been tutoring people of different ages- either for self- interest purpose, or for business/study needs. Working at a school as a Mathematics Teaching Assistant and for Arrival Education as an Assistant Talent Development Manager in London has helped me to trace an unmistakable impact my role as a tutor can have on young people. I have really learnt how to connect with students from various backgrounds and nationalities and found various teaching approaches that really work. As a university student myself, I explore new study methods on a daily basis.
