Courteney A - Tutor in Waterkloof

I am a final year education student, I love sports, I have been doing my practical for my final year in two schools in Pretoria, South Africa. I have experience with kids from age 7 to age 13. I have taught social science, life orientation, English and some Afrikaans. I got my 120 hour TEFL Advanced certificate. I am very patient and I love to help students to achieve their goals, I am flexible and I will support the student. My teaching method is based on the type of learner I deal with, I will spend the first session to get to know the learner and to find out how they like to learn. I feel that it is important to have a good relationship with each other, especially for the student to trust me and feel comfortable with me. i want my students to enjoy their lessons and to set goals for themselves to achieve in my lesson.
