I am also able to aid in the understanding of set literature books and poetry, as well as the essays and questions that come with them, which can be daunting at times. I put a fun twist on the seemingly monotonous texts and am here to not only increase your marks, but give you the confidence you need to constantly excel in this language.

I believe that reading is one of the important skills in elementary education. All subjects requires reading as a skill to comprehend.Reading is fun and rewarding too. Reading is a basic skill that we are exposed to in our daily lives. I teach reading to learners so that they can read aloud, in a group and encourage silent reading too. Using total physical response also helps because children learn to read by observing, hearing and using body language too. I use different reading materials like pictures, picture words, flash cards, story books, Puppets, magazines, signs etc to enhance reading I also encourage learners to choose their own reading material of their own interest. I use reading material that a relevant, in context, age appropriate and user-friendly. Reading strategies and techniques that are suitable for learners can help them improve their writing skills too. Reading is a skill that all children can be able to learn.

I am mature and very patient. I have an 11 year old daughter and this has shown me that with patience and encouragement there are no limits to what a person can achieve. I am looking forward to meeting new people who I can teach.
