Communicative English Tutors in Penang : Academic Enrichment

Education

Master's Degree in English Studies

Experience

I have been teaching English for 12 years. Throughout the years, I have guided and helped students from all walks of life. Today, my students include kids, teenagers, and working adults. I teach the National, as well as the IGCSE English syllabus. I also train students for the ESOL, IELTS and MUET examinations. I believe that having a good command over the English language opens doors to a great array of opportunities, and therefore, providing people with the right set of English skills is one of my passions.

Tutoring Approach

I plan my lesson, and make all the necessary preparation ahead, including photocopy of handouts, and lesson content. Lessons involve reading, writing, listening and speaking. Having a good command over the English language, especially grammar, allows me to deliver lessons of impeccable quality. I believe in Albert Einstein's quote "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.", and therefore, I make it a point of teaching in a simple, yet effective manner.

Education

Diploma

Experience

I’ve been teaching in daycare centre for 3 years now and I’ve seen student struggling in homework as well as tuition because of tiredness. I believe student won’t learn much just by doing worksheet. They have to attend classes willingly or happily. By doing so, the way the teacher teach will have to be interesting.

Tutoring Approach

The first thing I’ll be doing in my lesson is to interact with the children. Talk to them and ask them how is their day and let them share what they want to. Next, teach them according to the workbook but one day one chapter/comprehension is enough. I’ll be making the class fun by having reward system.
