Interactive and collaborative sessions which make learners explore language in different ways. Using G-drive, online interactive applications such as Padlet, Quizlet, sites for academic language structure and development.

I use an interactive google document with pre-prepared activities which students can complete which involve exploring meanings of words, finding opposites, developing phrases, improving academic vocabulary, describing pictures and ideas clearly, critically thinking, evaluating arguments, essay compositions, pronunciation practice both received and produced as well as vocabulary enhancement in general.

I have 13 years of experience teaching general English, academic English, ESP as well as exam classes for IELTS and TOEFL. I have taught all levels and always push my learners to make amazing improvement in every class. I am friendly and bring interesting topics of discussion. My classes are never repetitive or boring but inspiring.

I use online materials, news stories, political events, world news, environmental campaigns, journals for academic content as well as general widely accepted sources such as lexical concordancers and sites that are useful to help you enhance your language skills.

I am very much in favour of authentic learning - as a student myself who studied up to masters and delta level (level 7 studies), I understand the problems and challenges many students and English language learners may face. My students love my friendly nature, creative activities, inspirational pointers for career progression and advice from my experiences. I am a lot more than a teacher, I am a facilitator, a friend, a guide and advisor for life.
