Samira - Camberwell tutor






Information About Samira:


Personal Description:

I am a young enthusiastic tutor. I am passionate about languages and think they are a wonderful tool for communication. I have worked with many teenagers and adults from different ethnic groups and backgrounds. I always find a way to make the most reluctant enjoy learning by approaching them with a topic they like and then I relate it to the language.



Teaching Experience:

I have worked in 2 challenging schools and managed to promote languages among the most reluctant. I prepared them for French GCSE (Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing) and AS/A-Level with different exam boards (AQA, Ed-excel, OCR). I also master the primary and secondary schools curriculum as I worked with both institutions. I worked as a French Teacher for adults in a Language College for 2 years.



Tutoring Approach:

My teaching is based on communication skills, my first aim is to give enough confidence to the students to speak. I make sure they use the target language as much as possible through classroom instructions and requests to make the language appear as a tool for communication rather than a subject. As for Listening, I use different resources to get them used to different voices, accents and pace of speaking. Through reading, I work on comprehension and phonetics to improve pronunciation.
