I believe being a good English Tutor requires more than just being able to speak the language fluently. It also needs a comprehensive knowledge of English grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary, combined with excellent communication skills. Teachers of young learners will also need to have an understanding of how to teach engaging, effective classes to students.
When dealing with beginners, as a Tutor I need to be in alert and hands-on at all times. Understanding their thoughts, mostly word-by-word sentences that are sometimes difficult to understand since they just say words without any linking verbs or any conjunctions, and occasionally unclear pronunciations all present a challenge in instruction.
Students get to choose which material they prefer to use in class, and as a Tutor I will assist them in terms of reading, checking their comprehension, and helping them construct good sentences with correct grammar during our free conversations before and after the lesson.
My classes are also a safe space to looseness up and have a good time while learning something and contributing to the learners improvement.
In short, my students success is my success too, and this feels really fulfilling.
