A dedicated and certified ESL and Afrikaans teacher passionate about creating an innovative, engaging, and inspiring learning environment. With a proven track record of motivating students to master both English and Afrikaans, as well as other subjects, I strive to cultivate a genuine love for learning in both languages. I am committed to constantly improving my teaching methods to achieve even better results and help students reach their full potential.Me as a Teacher
I am skilled at managing students of all ages and proficiency levels, creating an engaging and effective learning environment. I specialize in developing diverse activities, tools, and strategies to help students learn English in creative and personalized ways. With a strong ability to connect with students, I motivate them to excel and reach their full potential. I am dedicated to supporting students in mastering English, even when facing challenges such as learning disabilities. Whether working individually or in groups, I focus on fostering language development and helping students thrive. My lessons & teaching style
I adapt my lessons to each student's abilities and personality. My approach includes building connections, creating a safe, fun learning environment, and using clear speech. I use visual aids, check for understanding, and adjust based on needs. I introduce new vocabulary, apply different teaching strategies, and incorporate technology. Furthermore, I also learn about students' cultural backgrounds to enrich the learning experience.
