About Me

italki teacher since Nov 18, 2021

⭐️CHILDREN LESSONS⭐️ My Name is Zama🙂. I am a certified native English teacher for children with lots of teaching experience. I have an associate's degree in journalism. I am passionate about teaching languages . 👩‍🏫As an English professional and speak very well, I love to teach and share my English skills to help children reach their potential and build confidence in their abilities. I understand how challenging learning a new language could be because I for one have been in that situation before. That is why I believe while learning a new language the atmosphere should be pleasant and not too formal🌼.

Me as a Teacher

✨As a teacher who teach children I really value my students and I love aligning myself with their overall goal. ✨My lessons are always lively, filled with enjoyable activities and most importantly my lessons are beneficial to my students. ✨I have experience teaching children of all ages and backgrounds, from complete beginners to advanced students. ✨I always aim to make my classes comfortable, easier and enjoyable to give students the opportunity to express themselves and have more talk time, so they can build confidence and get to improve their English skills.

My lessons & teaching style

✨Our first lesson will focus on the student English goals and the creation of a specific plan to help you achieve those goals. ✨All lessons are tailored to meet the needs of each student and are presented in a manner that allows the students to feel comfortable, and express yourself. ✨Since I teach children I correct students on the spot, I do so gently and with great encouragement so that they don't feel discouraged by their level of knowledge. ✨To keep my students on track I prefer to set goals at the beginning of our encounter because these goals will help us stay on track and review our progress at a later stage.
