🤔 Q&A
Kru Jum's Teaching Style

Overall, 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😊. 

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

🎇There are three main keys here. 
*First is 100% belief in human ability to learn, especially kids at young age. 
*Second is I truly believe in learning through play. They learn more successfully when they get to interact with materials.
*Third is repetition.

 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!


*For Self-paced set up, the students will have immediate access to watch the class along with the teacher.  They will then be encouraged to teach and practice with someone else what they've learned.  And they can also practice what they have learned by playing a fun review on Kahoot (link will be provided underassighment).
