I would describe it as highly adaptable. I don't have a favourite teaching method or method of interacting with students in the classroom. Because, in my opinion, each class and lesson are unique, and a good teacher should always tailor their instruction to their audience, the level of discipline in the class, the difficulty of the lesson, and so on. I simply prefer a more personalised approach to teaching, and I alternate between being an authority, demonstrator, facilitator, and delegator. So far, so good, so I have no reason to doubt the effectiveness of my teaching style. Since I typically work with students one on one, I always try to clearly define the goals with each one. Not what I want to achieve, but what they want to achieve, what they expect from our cooperation. Then, considering their current level of language skills, and what kind of personality they are, I come up with a clear plan for the entire year, including some milestones and tests, in order to evaluate our progress regularly. And just then do I choose my teaching methods, adjusting them to the plan and the ultimate goal we have with the student.
