Information About Christiana:


Personal Description:

Reflecting on my educational experiences, I appreciate the immeasurable impact that teachers
make on the lives of young people. I also realise that the skills and knowledge acquired in the
classroom, will be used by young people throughout life. Therefore, as a teacher, I hope to be a
role model that cultivates in young people, open minds, the knowledge and ability to look at the
world critically, and the belief in ones capacity to make positive contributions to society. With
this goal in mind, I am applying for admission as a tutor.



Teaching Experience:

I have been teaching English for seven consecutive years



Tutoring Approach:

The use of everyday vocabulary and structures is the object of language teaching.
The learner is expected to use the language to the outside situations.
Oral skills are developed in this method. (Question-answer session, Interaction exercises and intensive drills). Speech habits are developed by initiation drill.
Grammar is taught inductively
It focuses on the second language learning in a natural way.
Concrete meanings are taught through situational approach. The meaning of a word is not given in L1 & L2.
Abstract meanings are taught through association of ideas.
Both oral and listening skills are taught.
Translation method is avoided.
Good pronunciation is aimed at.
Writing skill is secondary.
