Michel O - Tutor in Comptonville
Good day, My name is Michel Olver, I am 36 years old and stay in Johannesburg. I recently obtained my TEFL Certificate in teaching English and I am very exited to share my knowledge. My 18 year journey in the Hospitality industry provided me with great communication skills, easy to connect and a passion to motivate people. I love to inspire students to learn and improve their skills in a fun, open environment. It is important to understand, feel comfortable to ask questions and have discussions regarding topics if it is unclear. Curriculum and lesson plans are very important guidelines and learning it can be made very interesting. I am passionate, patient and open minded, in my teaching I like turning things up side down to make sense of it and memorable. My LIFE therapy… never too old to learn, always stay true and be passionate in everything you do. Looking forward to meeting you. Michel
