I assess the students based on proficiency level but one of the most effective teaching methods I have found is using visual aids and using past papers.
Each student is different and works at their own pace and we develop a learning method that they may find the most engaging and informative.
By incorporating past papers into our lessons, this best prepares students for upcoming tests and exams ae they are able to familiarise themselves with the material beforehand.
I tackle the most difficult topics first by asking the students to create flashcards for themselves and read their questions aloud. We then review the study material they have created for themselves and work together to see what areas can be improved.
Many of my students work best with self directed encouragement and continually learning from their mistakes.
For younger students, I do online quizzes as they find these most interesting for those who tend to get easily distracted and do word association with songs and rhymes.
My teaching style is very collaborative and I like to build a rapport with my students and parents so there is a comfortable working environment. I aim to maintain a warm and judgment free approach so that communication is easier. This enables my students to strive to work hard and are able to achieve the best grades possible.
Each lesson is different and each student is guaranteed to have learned something new or have tremendously improved on an existing skill.
I look forward to teaching you and please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
