I am a highly capable professional certified TEFL teacher with creative instructional demeanor and competence in smart learning methodologies. I possess 10 years' experience as a English Language teacher and I am passionate about raising standards across all educational concept areas. My goal is to proffer my English Language students with the valuable knowledge and skills they require to become functioning members of their society, intellectually, economically, emotionally and socially. I am an avid believer of context based learning, therefore my teaching style introduces concepts that are related to life and social skills so that students can easily grasp the concepts and be confident in themselves. I also make use of visuals to create a vivid picture in students' mind and to make the lessons fun and more interactive. I am an avid reader and researcher who is always curious to learn knew things every now and then, thus I bring new information and approaches every now and then. In terms of interpersonal communication, I am responsive to my colleagues and eager to learn and help whenever possible. I am good at team work, able to consider and analyze different opinions and take the lead when necessary. I am also good at persuading others by creating relationships based on natural trust and understanding.
