TEFL tutors in Pretoria

I recently completed my TEFL in order to teach students online. English is a universal language of communication and everyone should have at least a basic grasp of the English language just to engage better with the world we live in. I want to assist people in this regard and help them to learn to speak English properly and fluently.

I am an education editor for an internationally accredited higher education institution, and I have former experience in lecturing English and Philosophy to both first and second/foreign language students. I received training and have teaching experience in both Australia and South Africa. I have also worked as a writing instructor at a writing lab and have spent many hours helping students develop better writing strategies and skills on both school and university level.

It is my passion to teach languages - I have many years of experience teaching languages to all age groups. I adapt lessons to accommodate the reason why a person wants to learn a language - if only a basic foundation is needed for traveling, we focus on basic language skills, speaking and understanding of basic phrases and language structures. If fluency is the end goal, we take the slow route of getting acquainted with the foundations of the language and talking and reading as much as possible. I firmly believe that if a person enjoys the lessons, we are already on the road to success.

The following describes my work ethic: 1. Consistent performer: always produce 100% pass despite large classes. 2. Habit of excellence: always strive to improve the quality of results 3. Goal focused and self-driven: set high goals to ensure that no student is left behind. 4. Resourceful change manager - Keep abreast with changing curriculum needs through further study and extensive reading in order to be an effective implementer of the curriculum. 5. Debate and public speaking coach extraordinaire
