In my previous offline teaching experience, I worked with students of different ages, English proficiency levels, learning abilities, and goals. When designing my own lessons, I tailored the content and activities to each student’s objectives, level of English, comprehension, and individual learning needs. When teaching at language centers, I followed the curriculum provided by the school while adapting my teaching approach to suit the students in each class.

In terms of teaching methods, I believe that students process and understand information in different ways, so I incorporate a variety of techniques rather than relying on a single approach. These include questioning, elicitation, visual materials, cue cards, and other interactive activities. Elicitation, in particular, is one of the techniques I use most frequently in both offline and online lessons. Instead of immediately providing students with answers, I encourage them to brainstorm, make connections, and use their existing knowledge to work towards the answer themselves. I find that this active involvement not only keeps students engaged but also helps them understand and retain what they have learned more effectively.
