🤔 Q&A
Ms.Simpson's Teaching Style
My teaching style is very high energy. I am animated and can't hide my excitement when my students make any big or small progress in their learning😊. I truly believe in checking students understanding, so I always stop and ask questions.

🌎How do I approach teaching Thai to a kid who is growing up outside of Thailand?

🎇There are two main keys here. 
*First is 100% belief in human ability to learn, especially kids at young age. 
*Second is repetition.
*Maybe, third is for kids to have fun ;-)

 My focus is for learners to be able to know as much vocabulary as they can through repeated listening and speaking. It is a lot easier and meaningful for learners to learn how to read and write (later) when they have a solid foundation of what exactly they are reading/writing. 

🎆I love teaching. I am so lucky to have found Outschool! Thanks to this platform, I get to interact with and teach many wonderful and fascinating kids from all over the world every day!

📧If you have any questions, send me a message. I am excited to work with your child, and I mean that truly!
