Experience

Whenever we talk about experiences, what counts is the quality rather than the quantity. The Englishire project has given me ample opportunities to help English learners of all ages master the language.

 

Some of my coaching adventures in recent years include:

• coaching non-native English speakers to help develop their language skills, grammar and vocabulary
• coaching local and expatriate professionals to help improve their business and conversational English
• coaching business undergraduates in academic writing to help nurture their content management skills
• coaching candidates taking English proficiency tests to help strengthen their language foundations
• coaching schoolchildren to help foster a growth mindset and a lifelong learning culture

Be it directly or indirectly, each of the above has helped refine my approach to language coaching.

Tutoring Approach

Inspirational and educational, the Englishire approach is based primarily on transformative, intuitive and collaborative learning.

Fueled by everything that I got from my 27 years of experience in language learning, Englishire only has one ultimate goal in mind: create an environment that promotes your language skills (speaking, listening, reading and writing) so that you can gradually pick up the English language the natural way.

Rather than bombard you with tons of information that you can’t relate to, every single activity in Skilletro uses context to facilitate learning.

By getting quality exposure to real-life examples and scenarios, you’ll have a much better idea of how to use the language in everyday situations—whether for academic or work purposes.

Experience

AUSMAT Lecturer in Economics and Business Management & Enterprise (Sunway College)

Tutoring Approach

The key to success in subjects such as Economics and Business is to have a thorough understanding of the material. Memorising definitions and concepts word for word is highly discouraged. Questions are constantly changing from year to year, as such, making sure that students have the skill to apply theory to different questions and scenarios is my top priority. I identify major key points and concepts of a chapter, and methodically explain them step by step with breaks in between for questions. I make concepts easy to understand by using relevant and relatable examples. I sprinkle in real life examples, current events and updated statistics as well, which students can use to enhance their answers, especially for essay or extended response questions. Stickman drawings are my forte, and have been proven to be exceptionally useful for students to understand complicated topics such as bonds and investments. Combining relatable examples, current events, stickman drawings and plain English explanations, students are able to grasp concepts with ease. My students are exposed to a variety of past year questions, usually after every topic. They are drilled with every section tested in their exams, commonly multiple choice questions (MCQs), short and extended response questions. I provide detailed feedback on homework completed by my students, mainly for subjective or open-ended questions, and explanations for any confusing MCQs. Closer towards exam periods, I carry out time-based practice, to hone my students’ time management skills, which then allows them identify areas of weakness. I cover topics which the student is not too confident in, so no time is wasted explaining something they already know, unless requested. My lessons are a safe space where students are encouraged to ask questions, ensuring there are no gaps in their knowledge of the subject. I have my own resources and materials, accumulated throughout my teaching career which will be provided exclusively to my students. A key benefit my students have is that they can message me at any time to ask for help outside our tuition sessions.
