About Me

The thing I enjoy the most in tutoring is explaining complex concepts in simple words and transforming lengthy book texts into sensible ideas and pictures. When I see the understanding in my mentee’s eyes, the way it all starts making sense after the past three hours we have been staring and drawing out the nasty Krebs cycle on the blackboard, then I know it was 100% worth it!

My teaching approach:
1. Start with something simple, just a general idea of what it is and why we are doing it.
2. Start performing the technique and make comments on what you are doing. Point out important things, but do not dive into deep science right here.
3. Check in with students regularly to see if they are actually getting it (NOT "any questions?" or "everybody good on that?", BUT "why do we put this cap here?" or "do you see the white steam coming out?"), make them actively involved by the questions or asking to hold a tube while you get the reactant from the fridge.
4. Go slowly, you are just showing the technique the first time. The students can always speed up when doing it themselves.
5. Make the schematic drawing of the experiment on the blackboard / summarize it in a protocol and let the students try it on their own. Supervise them, give tips, and suggest adjustments.
6. Let them do it fully on their own and let them ask you any questions, even the silliest and "too obvious to ask" ones.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.
