Parts of speech in English language and how to master them

Àpd 30.64 C$ /h

Parts of speech are the fundamental building blocks of language that help us understand how words function in a sentence. There are eight main parts of speech:

1. Noun: A noun is a word that names a person, place, thing, or idea. For example, "cat," "London," and "happiness" are all nouns.

2. Pronoun: A pronoun is a word that replaces a noun to avoid repetition. Examples include "he," "she," "it," and "they."

3. Verb: A verb is a word that expresses an action, state, or occurrence. It tells what the subject of the sentence does or is. Examples of verbs are "run," "eat," and "think."

4. Adjective: An adjective is a word that describes or modifies a noun or pronoun. It gives more information about the noun or pronoun. For instance, "blue," "tall," and "delicious" are adjectives.

5. Adverb: An adverb is a word that modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb. It provides information about how, when, where, or to what extent something happens. Examples are "quickly," "very," and "often."

6. Preposition: A preposition is a word that shows the relationship between a noun (or pronoun) and other words in the sentence. It indicates location, time, direction, or other spatial relationships. Common prepositions include "in," "on," "under," and "after."

7. Conjunction: A conjunction is a word that connects words, phrases, or clauses in a sentence. Some common conjunctions are "and," "but," "or," and "because."

8. Interjection: An interjection is a word or phrase used to express strong feelings or emotions. It stands alone and is not grammatically connected to the rest of the sentence. Examples include "wow," "ouch," and "bravo."

Understanding the different parts of speech is essential for constructing grammatically correct and coherent sentences. By identifying the role of each word, we can communicate more effectively and clearly.

Hello,

I offer French, Spanish, and English lessons for all levels. I help with job interview and university exam preparation, as well as lectures and oral and written exams. I assist with correcting beginner and advanced level homework. I offer academic support for children, homework help, and help with grammar, vocabulary, writing, composition, and conversation. The methodology is adapted to the personality and needs of each student.

If you've just moved to London and need some basic language skills to get by, I can help you too, even if you're traveling to a French or Spanish-speaking country.

If you're traveling and only need a few hours of lessons during your stay, then a conversation lesson while visiting London's museums or parks will be nice (let's check the weather first).

Thank you

Jenny

I specialise in tutoring children still in primary education. My lessons are designed to help children with subjects they may be struggling with or providing that extra extension! I have taught from Reception/Kindergarten up to Year 6; I was head of Maths and French as well as head of Year 3. As head of maths, I am trained in Singapore Maths - an innovative approach to mathematics which takes a from the ground up approach; teaching children a deeper understanding of the patterns and links between numbers rather than learning by rote or memorisation. I have a wealth of experience and am very well versed in how to plan sessions to support, engage and ensure children progress across all subjects. Differentiate tasks to their needs whilst ensuring they are being challenged, and most importantly - always making it fun!

I love the French language and pass this on to my students when I teach. Lots of speaking, listening to everyday conversations in various contexts, French songs, practising grammar and new vocabulary. Suitable for school children or adults.
English as a second language is another speciality of mine. I make my lessons interesting and fun. Speaking is the most important part but also writing notes as it is easier to remember afterwards. Listening to conversations and answering questions on them afterwards, while always checking grammar. I can guarantee fast progress.

I am a professional dancer and language enthusiast, with a passion for teaching. Fluent in English, Spanish, French and Norwegian. I am a university student currently working on a degree in Spanish language and literature and history of the Spanish speaking world.

I can help you whether you are a beginner wanting to learn a new language, preparing for an internship or studies abroad, or if you are in school and need some help preparing for tests and exams.

My teaching is tailored to each student and how they best learn. My goal is to keep all my lessons fun, interactive and dynamic, with a focus on efficient learning and motivation. Being a professional dance artist with experience from teaching dance, I believe gives me a creative approach to tutoring language.
Why do I want to work as a tutor? Because I want to share my love and passion for the language and the joy it brings me with my students. Having studied Spanish all through my years in school, I know that learning a language in school can be challenging, and I want to help with that.

Course Description:
In this engaging and comprehensive tutoring course, students will embark on a journey through the captivating realms of English and literature. I will explore the fundamental aspects of language and delve into the intricate world of literary devices to foster a deep understanding and appreciation for these invaluable subjects.

Importance of English and Literature:
English and literature form the backbone of effective communication, critical thinking, and cultural understanding. Proficiency in these areas empowers individuals to articulate their ideas with clarity and eloquence, enhancing their professional and personal lives. Furthermore, literature provides a window into diverse cultures, historical periods, and human experiences, enabling me to empathize with others and expand my horizons.

Real-Life Applications and Value:
The skills acquired through this course will extend beyond the confines of the classroom, benefiting students in numerous aspects of their lives. Effective language usage is essential in all fields, from composing persuasive essays to delivering compelling speeches, and even communicating effectively in everyday conversations. The ability to analyze literary works enhances problem-solving skills and nurtures creativity, both of which are highly sought-after attributes in the professional world.

Course Approach:
I have designed this course to work from the very grassroots of English and literature, laying a solid foundation for students to build upon. I will start with fundamental concepts such as metaphors, similes, and personification, and gradually progress to more sophisticated literary devices such as imagery, alliteration, and foreshadowing. Each session will be interactive, encouraging students to actively participate in discussions and apply the concepts they learn.

Learning Outcomes:
By the end of this course, students will:

- Develop a profound understanding of English grammar, syntax, and vocabulary, enabling them to express themselves fluently and coherently.
- Recognize and employ various literary devices, enhancing their ability to analyze and interpret literature effectively.
- Cultivate critical thinking skills by engaging with diverse literary works and exploring different perspectives.
- Gain an appreciation for the power of language and its impact on communication and storytelling.
- Strengthen their writing skills and craft compelling narratives, essays, and creative pieces.
- Build confidence in their reading and interpretation abilities, empowering them to engage with complex texts.

Join me in this journey through the world of English and literature, where I will work with you to unlock the power of language and foster a lifelong love for the written word. Let's build a strong foundation that will serve as a solid platform for your academic excellence and personal growth.

As a recent graduate from a Master degree in teaching English, with 5 years of experience tutoring French children and students privately. During my two years of master, I taught English to secondary school students.
The theory and the practise, allowed me to develop my teaching skills and through tutoring I have learned to tailor my teaching methods to the student’s needs.
Moreover, throughout my years of tutoring, I could gave back the confidence that students were lacking in their education, which led to one of my students to obtain her “brevet” equivalent of the English GSCE with a high grade.
The success was hinged through the learning material that I created. Indeed, I produced my own lesson plans and I provided weekly progress homework.

A comprehensive English class for beginners to advanced! Taught by a native English speaker and lessons can be in Italian or French. We will be speaking English for most of the class, you will have speaking practice every lesson as well as listening, reading and writing which I will correct and mark. We will have grammar lessons and I will explain common mistakes you make, as well as taking you through complicated pronunciation or grammar rules.

I have an excellent understanding of language, I grew up speaking English and Italian, and I learnt French at school, so I understand how language should be taught and what some common difficulties are. I am also learning Turkish and hopefully soon I will be able to teach in Turkish.
