Hello! I'm Dequan Thomas, an energetic and dedicated online ESL tutor with over 6 years of experience teaching English to children and teenagers aged 6-16 in Japan. My passion for language learning and cultural exchange has driven me to create engaging, effective, and fun learning experiences for my students. Having taught in Japan for several years, I understand the unique challenges and needs of young learners in the ESL context. My tailored lessons are designed to build confidence and proficiency in English. I believe every student is unique, so I strive to meet each one's individual learning style and goals. I assess my students' strengths and areas for improvement to provide customized lessons that ensure steady progress. My excellent communication skills help me connect with students and parents alike. I provide clear, constructive feedback and maintain open lines of communication to keep everyone informed about the student's progress.I am dedicated to my students' success. I continually update my teaching methods and materials to provide the best possible education. My goal is to help students not only learn English but also gain the confidence to use it effectively in their daily lives.
