Student-Centered Approach to Learning
I have a Bachelors in General Studies with minors in English and Spanish and a TEFL Certification.
I have 5 years experience teaching classes sizes of 13 students from kids to adults and private 1:1 classes. I teach basic all the way to fluid and conversation classes. Right now, I teach young Chinese children all levels of English in grammar, writing, phonics, and reading and comprehension. And, I teach conversation classes to Korean kids and adults.
Subject Expertise
Cognitive Diversity
How I adapt to students with diverse intellectual needs.With the Chinese kids I teach online, I sometimes introduce a puppet or stuffed animal as a new friend and fellow learner to keep them engagement during the lesson.
