I specialize in teaching English to speakers of other languages with a special interest and focus upon correct accent and pronunciation. However, I also can help to improve a native English speaker's understanding of grammar and the correct usage of punctuation in their written work. I completed my BA(Hons) in African Studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. Where my focus was on languages, linguistics, phonetics, and religion. Therefore I have the ability to facilitate knowledge within the African Studies field. I have a working knowledge of a number of African languages including Wolof, Hausa, Swahili, and Krio. These study experiences equipped me with a greater knowledge of some of the languages and cultures of Africa, therefore I can create lessons and classes which take into account the student's cultural and linguistic background in which I can develop lessons that focus upon a particular student's needs. I also have, Certificate IV Training and Assessment, Federation University, Australia Certificate IV in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, Kangan Institute, Melbourne, Australia Level 3 Certificate in Delivering Learning, Westminster Kingsway College, London. With these qualifications and my primary and secondary knowledge of African culture and languages, I can create lessons that are engaging, interesting and enjoyable for the students which ultimately will be educationally rewarding for the student.
