Adaego Okegbe English language and grammar Tutoring

My teaching method entails, observing the pupil, and determining how best they learn.
Every student learns differently.
For the visual learner, I use texts and academic materials containing pictures and charts.
For conventional learners who prefer to learn by memorisation and rote, I teach by repetition.
For learners who learn better by immersion and socialisation, virtual and live excursions are planned as needed.
Understanding and knowledge retention are the key goals, so cramming alone is not advised.
I encourage the students who learn by memorisation and cramming to be able to explain in their own words, the concepts learned.
Being able to explain what has been taught, is the only way we [the student and I] can be sure that a subject has been completely understood.
My students more often than not, go on to perform excellently well, with great academic results.
