Here's a bit about my teaching philosophy
Subjects
I teach English through subjects, themes, real-life skills and cultures, while individualizing my curriculum to fit your child's needs
Interactive
Even though my lessons ae are online, they are highly interactive and hands-on, meaning your child will do practical, out-of-the-screen activities as well
Gamified
My materials and lessons are gamified, and your child will everything through fun activities where they lead the class and practice
4 skills
I focus on all 4 language skills - reading, listening, speaking and writing so that your child can be fluent and use English in real life
Real life
I teach English through real-life skills - collaboration, communication, creativity and critical thinking
Themed
My programs are themed - In one, for example, fall theme, I teach science, arts, game engineering, & LEGO engineering
Portfolio
Your child gets their own portfolio where you get screenshots and a summary of EVERY lesson
Long-term
My programs are long-term and If you complete all 3 levels, you can gain enough knowledge to enroll in an international school/preschool
