Jarod O.
English Language Tutor
About
My focus during every lesson is to provide my student with clear explanations, lots of practice material, mostly based on past papers.
I pride myself on my patient attitude which is vital to having a constructive lesson when preparing for an exam, there are often a few different methods for tackling a problem and patience is needed to go through these methods to find the one which the student understands and can learn to use on their own. This is something I put into action in my lessons.
I am able to edit, detect grammatical errors and improve the expression of any idea in written or typed form. I am creative and resourceful with the use of the English language as well as grounded in its literature. I am willing to learn and adapt to new ideas.
I understand that everyone learns in their own way, hence my lessons are fitly adjusted to the learning styles of the students.
Most of all, I believe lessons should be interactive; I encourage my students to try exercises themselves and to ask plenty of questions!
