Tutoring Approach:

My tutoring approach is learner-focused, supportive, and adaptable. I begin by understanding each student’s current level, learning style, and goals. From there, I tailor lessons to meet individual needs—whether that means improving grammar, expanding vocabulary, strengthening conversational skills, or boosting confidence in speaking and writing. I use clear explanations, engaging materials, and real-life examples to make lessons both effective and enjoyable. I also encourage active participation and create a safe space where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes as part of their learning journey. My goal is to help students progress at their own pace while remaining motivated and inspired
