My students tell me that they selected me from the other English teachers because they appreciate my depth of experience, my authenticity and because they quickly gain confidence and increased fluency from working with me. I am sincerely committed to helping my students achieve their individual goals. My students appreciate that I am not following a curriculum but customizing each lesson, using proven teaching practices, to help them reach their goals whether English for business advancement, travel, interview preparation, testing, proofreading, English for hobby or other..Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My lessons are CUSTOM to each student to help them advance quickly and for how THEY learn best. I begin each lesson with a bit of conversation to strengthen our rapport and to get the English flowing. Then we dig in and work hard for the remainder of the lesson, leaving 3-5 minutes at the end for valuable feedback and planning future lessons. I work with my students to develop a plan for them to reach their goals and I help keep them on target for achieving those goals.Mijn lesmateriaal
