Specialties

Teaching Style

My teaching style is fun! I enjoy helping children learn English . I am very patient, encouraging and kind! I try to have my students feel comfortable and not be nervous in class. I remind them that it is ok to make mistakes. I let them know that we all make mistakes and we all learn from them. I help my students pronounce the words correctly, help them read and understand grammar. I love to use TPR in class, which means Total physical response. This helps many young students learn in a fun and engaging way. Not every student understands everything we as teachers say, so by using TPR, students learn words that they have never even learned before. I love to sing songs with very young learners and play learning games with all my students.
