Professor of English

First of all, I would like to say ''hello'' to everyone and I hope you are having a good time. My name is Khalid. I teach both ENGLISH and... ARABIC. I am a patient, reliable, hard-working, responsible, kind and enthusiastic teacher. I am here to help you learn and speak English or Arabic easily and with confidence. Concerning my academic background and teaching experience, I have a bachelor's degree in English studies, linguistics. Furthermore, I have obtained both TEFL ( Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and TESOL ( Teaching English time Speakers of Other Languages) certificates. In addition to this, I have taught English in China for almost two years. I taught primary school students including kindergartens. Students had the ability to learn English smoothly and easily. Also, I have been teaching Arabic in classroom and online for more than two years. Concerning my teaching methods, I use different teaching methods, for instance, TPR ( Total Physical Response) especially with kids, Communicative Language Teaching, Audiolingual Method, Tasked-Based Learning and more importantly LANGUAGE GAMES. I strongly believe that language games are very helpful and essential in language lessons because they motivate students to learn English and be involved in the lesson. Moreover, using language games in lessons aims to help students develop a positive attitude towards learning English as well as being comfortable and feeling excited and enjoyable while learning English. I utilize different learning materials, such as visual aids, flashcards, Power Point presentations, real objects, audios, textbooks and so on. In a nutshell, I am your English or Arabic teacher who is here to use different methods and techniques of teaching which suit your level and which of course you prefer. I can also customize my lessons to meet your learning needs and objectives. Read more

Hello there, My name is Joanne Greene, I am 37 years old and live in sunny Johannesburg, South Africa. I am a native English speaker. I have... completed a number of certificates, namely Business to Business Marketing, my International TEFL Certificate, a Cambridge Assessment Certificate through Future Learn and I also have practical experience teaching English online. My background is tutoring and educating Health Care Professionals around the country, this involved me facilitating many training sessions in a classroom set up. I currently tutor two children aged 8 and 11 four times a week for the last two years. The younger one Catherine started on intermediate and has now moved up to upper intermediate and Josh started on upper intermediate and is now on advanced. I have also been teaching a 55 year old Bulgarian lady for the last 3 years. Vania started on elementary and has now moved through intermediate to upper intermediate level. My methods for teaching is mostly standard for all ages and what is important to note that every student is on their own journey, has different goals and learns at their own pace. It is important as a teacher that I can identify individual needs and provide the best tailor made learning experience for them. Firstly it is important that my students do most of the talking, this helps me to check the understanding of the vocabulary, pronunciation and sentence construction. Secondly I try to elicit as much information from my students to ensure maximum learning takes place. Another one of my very important teaching methods is self-correction and what I mean by that is if a student answers incorrectly I won't jump in immediately and give the correct answer, I would rather give a hint or clue. Most of the time the student is able to answer correct the second time around. This is very important because this is really where learning takes place, when a student discovers the answers themselves. I also believe very much in positive reinforcement, focusing on tasks completed successfully and accurately helps students to stay motivated and builds their self-confidence. Lastly it is vitally important that the vocabulary learned is retained in long term memory and how I do that is by giving the students stories and sentence to write using the vocabulary learnt and by also looking at the vocabulary in different context. I implement all these methods with TPR. I use various media and teaching materials to teach my students, some of which I have created myself such as printouts and flashcards. Some websites that I use are Live Worksheets.com, Grammar Monster.com, Breaking News English.com and ESL Flashcards.com. Through my teaching experience I have learnt the importance of and mastered my skills in building rapport with my students. Always been punctual for lessons, doing sufficient lesson preparation and creating content that I know they will find interesting and informative. Having integrity - I strive to do what I say I will do and at the time I said I would do it. Read more
