TESOL Native English South African Teacher as a Second Language for 6 years My name is Denise, I'm from Cape town, South Africa, but have relocated to Mallorca. I'm a native English and Afrikaans speaker. I have three children. I love travelling and learning about different cultures, and I'm learning Spanish. I'm a Foundation Phase teacher, and a Ballet, Tap and Jazz Dancing teacher. I've been teaching adults, teenagers and children for 40 years. I like to personalise my lessons to make them student centred, building the lessons around their interests. I like to concentrate on conversational English, which allows for maximum student participation and develops confidence. I introduce new vocabulary, correct Grammar and give tasks. I recap on concepts and skills. I studied as a Foundation Phase teacher, as well as being a qualified Ballet, Tap and Jazz Dancing teacher. I've been teaching adults, teenagers and children for 40 years. I like to personalise my lessons and make them student centred, building the lessons around their interests. I like to concentrate and base my lessons on conversational English, which allows for maximum student participation and develops confidence. I introduce new vocabulary, and correct incorrect Grammar as needed, as well as giving a task to complete between lessons, when necessary. I recap on concepts and skills previously covered, which we then build on as we continue with lessons.
