An experienced teacher

I welcome the focus on the individual learner that is a central feature of tutoring, and very much enjoy engaging in the lively dialogue and individualized feedback that enables tutees to grow in confidence as learners. I bring enthusiasm and energy to my tutoring. Thanks to my work as a school teacher, my approach to tutoring is also informed, where relevant, by a sound understanding of the assessment requirements for public examinations and school entrance examinations.

About

I am a multilingual person and I have had years of productive experience in teaching, I have taught a lot of students at different levels.I have a unique way of teaching my students to enable them speak the language in a short time.

Also in recent past I have been given the opportunity to work in some neighboring West African Countries variously as a teacher, lecturer and administrator in educational institutions ranging from Primary to Tertiary levels and this further developed my ability to nurture, mentor and build the capacity of people with varied backgrounds and needs.


I have a naturally positive rapport with students that helps me to engage and manage lessons effectively. I am enthusiastic, approachable and dedicated, and I endeavor to present myself and run my classes in a professional and energetic fashion. I understand the pressures students can feel in the run-up to exams, and, whether the student needs motivating or is already very keen, I enjoy using my background as a teacher to develop lively methods of teaching.
