My teaching is flexible, engaging, and student-centred. I adapt my methods according to the learner's goals and level, often employing a conversational approach to help students feel at ease when speaking naturally. I also incorporate correction-based techniques, where students read or speak, and I guide them through improvements in grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation.
For IELTS preparation, I focus on all four skills; Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking, utilising practical exercises and timed tasks to build confidence and familiarity with the exam format. Additionally, I include reading comprehension, vocabulary enhancement, and structured writing tasks to improve overall fluency.
Whether I am working with students from Eurpoe, Africa or Asia, I ensure that the learning environment is supportive, respectful, and provide gentle feedback, and create provide gentle feedback, and create space for students to develop at their own pace. My aim is to foster confidence, not merely accuracy.
