Fundamental English and Conversational Skills [EFL]

I teach English as a Foreign Language (EFL) for Non-native speakers.
I always tailor my teaching style and methodology to accommodate learners’ needs and interests. My speciality is primarily in teaching Fundamental English to Elementary School kids and Beginner Level adults. My expertise include Conversational English, Accent Reduction, English pronunciation, basic grammar, and interview preparation, English for travel, studying abroad or as a hobby.
My teaching techniques include drilling (i.e. of new concepts) and TPR for kids. For adults, I like to make use of a variety of teaching formats which include PowerPoint Presentations, video clips, news articles, discussions, informal debates, dialogues, Q&A, etc.
I love for the lessons to be interactive. I believe that the best way to learn English is when learners ask as many questions as possible. Adults that struggle with vocabulary and formulating basic sentences will find my sessions to be very beneficial.
My methods ensure learners reach an optimum level of fluency in their conversations.
I prefer to teach via the Zoom interface, because it has many interactive tools that are useful for Training and Development.
Learning English with me will be fun and stress-free.
