Hello and welcome to my ESL classroom! As a native (British) English speaker and certified TEFL teacher, I am excited to help your learner to develop their English language skills and improve their overall fluency. The lesson will be tailored to your child’s individual needs and their current level of English. I appreciate that each student is unique and so is what they wish to learn. If your child wants to chat and practise their conversation skills, that will be the lesson's focus. If they need some support completing a homework project, or reading a text to understand the vocabulary, meaning or grammar, I can guide them through that process too. Based on your learner’s needs, I will be able to adapt my teaching approach to best help them achieve their goals for the lesson. Students find learning more fun and engaging if they can choose their own topics of conversation to suit their interests and hobbies. Please send me a message or leave a comment in the classroom (at least 24 hours before class) if you would prefer a specific focus (e.g. conversational) or based on a particular theme. This will give me time to individualise the lesson for your child to make it as enjoyable (and relevant) as possible. If you have any further questions, simply send me a message and I will respond as soon as possible. If you do not see a time that works for your learner, please click the ‘Request Another Time’ button and I will do my best to open a new time slot that works for you. I look forward to meeting your child and helping them to grow as an English language student. *** Please refer to Parental Guidance for details regarding Third-Party Apps ***
