In Word Wizards: Mastering English, Reading & Writing, students will explore a variety of topics to boost their language skills, including reading comprehension, creative writing, vocabulary building, and grammar. Each class will focus on a specific skill, such as crafting strong sentences, identifying key details in texts, or expanding vocabulary using fun word games and exercises.

The class is structured to be interactive and engaging. Each session will begin with a short, guided lesson, followed by activities where students can apply what they've learned. We'll use a mix of games, discussions, short writing prompts, and hands-on activities to keep learners actively involved. I’ll also incorporate visual aids, slides, and video clips when appropriate to explain concepts and reinforce learning.

My teaching style is student-centered, focusing on creating a supportive, fun, and dynamic environment. Students will have plenty of opportunities to ask questions, share their ideas, and collaborate with peers.
