Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching English for over three years, helping students improve their language skills and achieve their goals. During this time:
- 55 of my students scored over 90 in their tests .
- 40 students managed to achieve an outstanding score of 100+ .
I specialize in two main areas: General English (with a focus on conversation) and TOEFL preparation. Whether you're looking to enhance your day-to-day communication or aiming for a high score on your TOEFL exam , I’m here to guide you through a structured, practical, and engaging learning process.
How I Teach General English
For General English, my approach is personalized and goal-oriented:
Assess Your Level: We’ll start by estimating your current English proficiency (please take Preply's test ).
Choose the Right Materials: I use the American English File series, a comprehensive resource designed to improve speaking, listening, and grammar skills .
Set a Schedule: Together, we’ll plan weekly classes that suit your availability. For best results, I recommend two 1.5-hour sessions per week at fixed times .
Regular Reviews and Testing: Every three weeks, I’ll give you a progress test. Before each test, we’ll have a review session to ensure you’re fully prepared . If you pass, we move forward to the next stage. If not, we’ll revisit the material for an additional week before retesting.
Consistency is key, so I kindly ask that you stick to a regular schedule. If you’d like to book extra sessions for additional practice, that’s always an option!
How I Teach TOEFL Preparation:
For TOEFL preparation, my focus is on speaking and writing, the areas where most students benefit from direct feedback ️. Here’s how it works:
Eligibility: Your English level should be at least B2 with a preparation window of 2+ months, or B1 with 6+ months of preparation .
Self-Study Support: For grammar, vocabulary, reading, and listening, I provide tips, strategies, and essential resources for you to study independently, as I believe these areas are best improved through personal practice.
Speaking and Writing Classes:
Speaking: I recommend starting with four focused classes where I teach strategies for each speaking task. After that, we’ll switch to practice sessions, simulating real exam conditions and providing immediate feedback .
Writing: In two initial sessions, I’ll teach you how to approach TOEFL writing tasks. For practice, you’ll write essays at home, and during our classes, I’ll provide detailed corrections and suggest improvements .
