I have a relaxed teaching style and enjoy getting to know my students on a personal level. My focus is thus student rather than teacher centered, I adapt to my learners' unique needs and interests as we progress with learning. I support and encourage my learners patiently as we proceed.. I feel open discussions and debate during learning help involve and motivate my students. I enjoy enquiring minds! I am open to learning new ideas from my students. I am skilled at providing knowledgeable instruction on all aspects of learning the English language. Over the past 20 years I have helped hundreds of learners overcome their particular problems in learning and have improved their academic results and overall understanding of the English language. What I teach will be applicable to real life situations.. My goal is to encourage sound study habits at school and at home and encourage a passion for learning in the future.
