I am a registered teacher. I have a Masters degree in Education. I have over ten years of teaching experience. I have worked both online and face to face with students. I have taught primary students as well as high school students. I have a passion for teaching English and would like to assist any students needing my assistance with their language, punctuation, grammar and writing skills. My classrooms are always focused on the specific needs of my students. I work hard to differentiate learning so that each student’s unique skills are emphasised. I hope you will choose me to assist you. Thank you for the opportunity.
