Information About Patricia:

Personal Description:

I am Scottish but have just recently returned from Greece. I have a lot of experience teaching English which I enjoy doing very much. I have CELTA qualification and a degree in English language and Literature. I am a very patient and considerate person which is reflected in my teaching.

Teaching Experience:

I have 14 years private tutoring experience in Greece. I also have 7 years experience of British summer school teaching. I feel my experience has given me a good insight into the needs and problems of the language learner. I have worked with every age group between 5 to adult and have prepared students for the Cambridge first certificate exam. I have experience from absolute beginners to proficiency level and feel my patience and understanding make me a good tutor.

Tutoring Approach:

I would firstly find out the student's needs and preferences then work on this. I feel with young learners a fun approach involving games and songs is beneficial. With adults a lot of self learning is appropriate with a lot of conversation and focus and revision of grammar and vocabulary points where necessary. I give homework after each session and work on the results of this on the next lesson as I feel a progression on work is the most beneficial to the student.

Qualifications:

• I HAVE A CELTA AND A DEGREE IN ENGLISH AND LITERATURE
