My pedagogic approach is to help provide a supportive environment, helping guide the student while focussing on relevant content to your life.My lessons & teaching style
I enjoy the Socratic method, where the classroom experience is a shared dialogue between teacher and students in which both are responsible for pushing the dialogue. I don't interrupt when you speak but write the corrections in the chat. I also answer any questions you have about grammar or pronunciation as well as provide you with different synonyms to help expand your vocabulary and improve your communication skills. Always supportive, fun and enjoyable. If it's not, let's rescheulde another class and you won't be charged. I look forward to seeing you in class!My teaching material

Thank you Darren for the amazing lesson!
Darren always knows how to interest and how to awaken the desire to learn the language. Even when you do your homework, you really enjoy English! I do my homework with a great interest, because I'm always interested in what he asks. For example, today we talked about the book i had read. It turned out that he had read this book too, so we discussed the statements the author speaks and shared our thoughts to each other.
