I believe that English is best learned through stories and sharing amazing experiences together. Learning takes place when the classes are learner centred ,when learners are navigating the way through the lesson because that is how they learn best . Mathematics on the other hand is all about practice but I make my classes fun by creating few songs that help learners understand and make the class fun for them .
In my years of teaching these subjects I have learned that learners underperform in these subjects only when they have a negative attitude towards the subjects. One of my teaching strategies is keeping learners motivated through out the lesson , I do that by giving them praise reports to make them feel confident through the lesson .I also make sure that learners understand that they can only learn by making a mistake I do this by creating a positive environment for learners to feel free to make mistakes .
