Tutoring Approach:
EFL
I am a follower of the "communicative method" in English teaching. The method integrates the teaching of grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, and the four core skills. The style is dynamic, with constant interaction and non-judgmental feedback.
My methods put the needs and interests of students first because it helps students to take charge of their own learning.
I am serious about making progress with students, so I want sessions to be focussed, but also relaxed and enjoyable.
