My teaching methods are tailored to you as I will assess your ability and determine the areas where you require improving. My main method primarily involves the shadowing technique, which is a powerful effective method that helps you to improve your English through audio and verbal repetition.
I devise fun and engaging exercises to build confidence such as quizzes, role plays and debates.
I also obtain experience teaching KS2 and KS3 topics for 11+ and GCSE preparation.
I have been providing private tuition for 4 years, specifically English and Mathematics, as well as helping foreigners with their conversational English. I offer 1-2-1 support to improve your conversational English quickly; Job interview practice & coaching; CV preparation; IELTS exam support; Friendly and safe environment, free from embarrassment to practice English.
