Rozita B - Tutor in Villieria

I am a language fan, fluent in Afrikaans and English and currently learning Spanish. I believe that learning should be fun so I base my lessons on games, pictures, songs and puzzles. Learning languages is awesome fun and I bring this passion to my lessons. Reading is a great tool and skill, which also brings learning on various other subjects into play, so you can learn cool and interesting stuff while improving your language skills. I have been teaching English for more than 6 years and design my own lessons and materials based on what the student needs, what the student enjoys and what sparks their interest. I taught Afrikaans for a year and use the same approach that I use with teaching English. I have been abroad and taught students in Poland and Indonesia, so I also have wonderful stories and experiences to relate to and use in assisting with language proficiency
