With a deep passion for teaching that began at the age of 17, I have been dedicated to helping younger children develop their English language and literacy skills. My teaching experience is rooted in engaging younger audiences, making lessons interactive and enjoyable. During my second year of university, I was involved in a program that prepared Chinese students for the TOEFL exam, which honed my ability to teach complex material in an accessible way. I also had the opportunity to spend a summer in Budapest, where I taught English at a camp for young people using unconventional and creative methods.
I am highly qualified, having completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Cambridge and my postgraduate studies at UCLA. My approach to teaching is student-centered, focusing on the individual needs and potential of each student. I believe that every student can excel with the right guidance and support, and I am committed to providing that. My strengths lie in my ability to connect with students, make learning enjoyable, and help them build confidence in their abilities. Teaching is not just a profession for me; it is a passion that drives me to make a difference in the lives of my students.
I have had the privilege of working with students who have stayed with me for over five years, guiding them through critical stages of their education, including preparation for major exams like GCSEs and SATs. This long-term commitment reflects the strong relationships I build with my students and my dedication to their academic success. My approach is tailored to each student's needs, ensuring they are well-prepared, confident, and ready to achieve their best in these important exams.
When planning my lessons, I take a personalized approach, carefully considering each student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. I begin by setting clear, achievable goals for each session and long-term objectives that align with the student’s academic needs and personal aspirations. My lessons are structured, yet flexible, allowing for adjustments based on the student’s progress and feedback.
My tutoring techniques are interactive and student-centered. I use a variety of methods to keep students engaged, such as incorporating games, real-life scenarios, and multimedia resources into the lessons. This approach not only makes learning more enjoyable but also helps reinforce the material in a way that resonates with the student.
My specialties lie in English language and literacy, particularly for younger children, as well as in preparing students for major exams like the GCSEs and SATs. I focus on building a strong foundation in the basics while gradually introducing more complex concepts. I also emphasize critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which are crucial for success in these exams and beyond.
By creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment, I aim to boost my students' confidence and help them reach their full potential.
Homework plays a crucial role in my tutoring approach, as it reinforces the concepts covered during lessons and provides an opportunity for students to practice independently. I assign homework that is thoughtfully tailored to each student's needs, ensuring that it challenges them without being overwhelming. This practice not only helps solidify their understanding but also encourages good study habits and time management skills.
I make sure to review and discuss homework in the following session, addressing any difficulties the student may have encountered and celebrating their successes. This feedback loop is essential in helping students build confidence and recognize their own progress. By treating homework as an integral part of the learning process, I help students develop a deeper understanding of the material and a greater sense of responsibility for their own education.
