This class focuses on young learners with little to no English experience. I will be patient with my students, and make my lessons exciting. I support the communicative-approach; this style of teaching focuses on authentic English that will be used in the real world. While grammatical accuracy is important, I focus mainly on effective communication. My teaching style makes use of Total Physical Response (TPR), props, puppets, games, etc. I adjust my style to the learner's learning preferences and I adjust my speed according to the learner's abilities. I firmly believe in positive reinforcement, the importance of motivation, and constructive feedback. My main goal is to help students to reach their language goals and to make this language journey enjoyable as well as informative. I am a very creative person, and I love making things. A few of my hobbies include: painting, crocheting, drawing, and singing. By being able to implement some of my creative skills in the classroom, I will be able make the class more interesting and fun!
