I will teach using slide presentation, interactive games and discussion for question and answer sessions. What's your teaching style? I believe that every child learns differently. I do my best to accommodate individual learning styles. How much will learners get to interact with you and each other (mention specifics like: lecture, games, slides, video clips, discussion)? I teach with guiding the students in discussion, visual aids and hands on activity. Students will have the opportunity to interact and discuss with other classmates with answering the weekly discussion. I will engage students in a classroom discussion question weekly. I will discuss the questions in the classroom. Any required experience or knowledge learners need? No prior knowledge is needed.
