***IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO ALL STUDENTS: I will be moving to Japan in 2022 for work and will therefore only be able to offer lessons on request. If you are in need of regular classes I would recommend rather finding someone with more availability. I would like to thank all of my students for their constant support and understanding.
My name is Grayson Hale and I am an educator from South Africa. With about six years of teaching experience, I could still be considered to be relatively new to the profession. However, I have worked hard to continually grow my résumé with new teaching challenges and experiences.
Me as a Teacher
Since obtaining my CELTA certificate in 2014, I have taught English as an Additional Language (EAL) to students in South Africa, South Korea, and China. I have since acquired my Master’s in Education and been teaching in an international class for the past three years. During this time, my experiences have been invaluable. As part of my duties, I have planned and taught lessons, written detailed assessments in the form of observations and reports, maintained class documentation and records, planned and delivered school performances, and participated in collaborative planning and meetings.
My lessons & teaching style
I believe that differentiated instruction is an incredibly important part of any learning environment. I have taught an inquiry-based curriculum to young learners (2 to 4 years old), and have used the teaching methodologies and techniques from the CELTA course when teaching adults. As a language learner myself, I can offer support and advice on techniques that have worked for me when studying a language.
