When possible I try to follow a textbook, as I think this gives a good structure to our courses. The student would be expected to do some homework between lessons, as this is hugely beneficial to learning.
The aim is to enable the student to 1) read and understand Italian, 2) speak and express oneself, 3) write and 4) understand when listening.
The atmosphere is friendly and informal.

Personal Description:
I am a polite and humble person. I am confident under my guidance you will make significant advances in the subject of Urdu.

I have studied my undergraduate degree from Pakistan and thus have an excellent command over my Urdu.

I am an experienced tutor who has always been passionate about teaching.

Teaching Experience:
I have many years of tutoring experience and I have a friendly approach to teaching. I make my lessons enjoyable and fun whilst maintaining very high standards of teaching.

Some of the children I have tutored have had a very basic command of Urdu whilst others I've tutored were studying for their A-Levels. Others I have tutored required Urdu for their job purposes or for pleasure.

Tutoring Approach:
I understand everyone is different and will learn in different ways. Therefore, I will tailor my lessons to each individual. Primarily, I will focus on ensuring the foundation blocks are in place before advancing to more sophisticated learning.

Majority of the times I will set my students homework. I believe this is the best way to monitor the progress. Homework exercises will vary depending on individual capability but can include comprehension exercises (for advanced learners) to practicing reading/writing simple Urdu sentences (for basic learners).

As most lessons are tailored, it's difficult to outline exact work plan but before each lesson clear goals will be set to give the students achievable targets.
