English Tutors in Penang : Languages

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

Graduate Diploma Level 7 (UK) in Teaching of English.

Experience

 I have 18 years of teaching experience. My clients are mostly Working Adult learners. I am a HRDF claimable coach. I specialize in coaching for rapid results , confidence , life and business direction. 

Tutoring Approach

My specialty is in the internal dimensions of learning and speaking with an authentic, comprehensible and universally understood pronunciation. I plan my lessons based on needs analysis and benchmarking my lesson objectives around "next level " transformation points. The development of lessons is organic and continuously evolves according to the progress made by a learner.  I am very committed to making sure students remain on track and train until they reach mastery. My typical student is ambitious and has a vision for their future in advancing their qualifications abroad, working abroad in a professional job or advancing to Senior Management position. If those are your goals, let's meet to see how to get you from where you are to where you want to be.   If you have no idea what I just said, get in touch anyway. 😁 I use "corporate", jargon in formal advertising copy but what I'm really saying is, "I help you get unstuck and achieve your goals."

Bachelor Engineering

Experience

I make teaching experience interesting by conducting discussions and quizzes as to have a better understanding that how much the student has imbibed and what more we need to work on. I work according to a planned schedule, so the syllabus is completed on time and we have ample time of revision. This makes student work under no pressure.

Tutoring Approach

I believe in Practical Knowledge and not in Theory if a person knows the practical implementation, the theory would be the easiest part in learning, I will teach with real life and live example and that too not kind of Teacher-Student but as friend-mentor.

I got my degrees from New Zealand University of Canterbury.Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education and Teaching English as a second language

Experience

I am Jane and I am the best teacher for you! I studied at University Canterbury, New Zealand where i got my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education and my Post Graduate in teaching English as a Second Language. I have been teaching in well established International schools for 28 years in 6 countries and here in Penang in Dalat American International school and St. Christopher's British International School for many years. I taught English as a second language to all ages and I also taught Kindergarten and Year 1 all subjects. In some of the International Schools, I was also the Principal for Kindergarten. Working in 6 different well established International schools in 6 countries and cultures have taught me how students feel and learn  when they are trying to learn English or other subjects. I teach according to the students' understanding of the subject and advance the student from there according to how the student learns. I also trained teachers how to understand their students and present their teaching to individual students and as a class.

Tutoring Approach

The most important thing as a teacher is to understand the student and be kind. My teaching method is flexible, there are many ways to present teaching to students. Some learn hands on visually, by listening, game based, student centered discussions and making connections just to name a few. I present lessons according to how the students learn best. I present my teaching in a fun, enjoyable way that makes the students want to learn more. I make my own resources. At the end of the course, my students speak and write closely like native english speakers do and they also do very well academically in other subjects. I can tutor starting from 3rd July 4.30pm onwards. Starting from September 1st, I can teach anytime to suit the student's needs. I can do individual teaching or group teaching. I apologize that I don't drive and students have to come to my home in Tanjung Bungah.

Education

Degree in Accounting

Experience

I have 3 years teaching experience as a private tutor. I would conduct the class based on the student's ability and make changes based on the progress. I just finished my degree in accounting and graduated with distinction. My advantage is that I have better understanding on the subjects and can provide a better and appropriate explaination to the students. 

Tutoring Approach

I will provide a demo class for the students, and generally know their understandings towards the particular subject. Then, I will plan for the teaching methods, and constantly update the schedule based on the progress. I would not give homeworks for the student unless it's necessary as sufficient practical questions would have been given during the classes. I would prefer students to contact me through whatsapp.

Tutoring Approach

I teach both groups and individuals and my approach in both cases is to encourage the students to do most of the speaking, while keeping mine  to a minimum.  Learning materials are selected to be appropriate and relevant for each student and lessons are conducted in accordance with the student’s needs.  Practical dialogues are used to cover speaking, reading, writing and listening and to demonstrate grammar in a natural and relaxed way.  The lessons will help students become proficient in the use of everyday English and communicate effectively with confidence.

Education

TESOL certificate

Experience

I have been an English teacher for about 10 years and I have taught both children and adults. I started as a nursery teacher and advanced to a facilitator in an English enhancement centre. I love working with various ages from small children to working adults. My biggest strength is that I am patient and so that allows my students to learn at their own pace.

Tutoring Approach

I've always considered myself more of a guide than a teacher. Children have a natural tendency to learn and develop language skills so I do my best to help them bring their skills to the surface. I use many different materials when I teach such as listening and speaking exercises as well as quizzes and games to make learning more fun.

Education

Diploma in TESOL

Experience

I've been teaching English to students and working adults since 1999. Between 2005 and 2015, I taught the Cambridge ESOL Exams preparatory course full-time in a language centre in Penang. Since 2007, I have been running English courses for adults. My strength lies in identifying and working with the strengths of my students. I try to understand their learning difficulties, and do what's needed to provide assurance and encouragement. I hold a Diploma in Journalism and a Diploma in TESOL.

Tutoring Approach

I plan my syllabus based on a pre-course assessment to identify their base-level competency. Knowing exactly what their needs and challenges are allows me to design my lessons accordingly. Nothing registers better than real-life experiences. I use such experiences as a foundation for building language proficiency. My objective is they would remember what was learned by remembering the story behind it.
