i have obtained a distinction in my English at high school. i have mastered the techinique of four English skills that enabled me to pass through my high school days. Reading, writing, listening and speaking, this are the four pillars needed for all English FAL,HL,SAL on all ground levels.

Throughout my schooling, tertiary studies and work environments I dealt with all the aspects of the English language, be it in speaking, understanding, teaching and writing. My knowledge of the language was not only obtained empirically, but is currently my home language. I have a thorough knowledge of, and a feel for the nuances of the language. I still perform proofreading, editing and translation work in English on request.

I have had the opportunity to teach English in Thailand and Vietnam. I worked in two international schools. I taught in High School and Primary School. I had the responsibility of a homeroom classroom in both establishments. During my contracts at these schools I was required to teach IGCSE, general English, reading, writing, and speaking. Students were non- native English speakers and therefore I had to find methods and strategies to implement understanding. This was done through explicit teaching. The concept of this approach is- I do, we do, they do. The outcome of this made the students more confident when communicating in English. I also gained an immense amount of patience from these experiences.

I enjoy English. Especially creative writing, poetry and language. It's a great way to use your imagination and come up with anything you want by using the correct grammar and language. Creative writing takes you away to a different world and many adventures while poetry sends you back to 1900s and to the true birth of English writing.

There are 4 different skills, namely listening, reading, speaking and writing. In order for an individual to be capable of using a language, they need to comprehend, produce and use these skills in order to be effective in interpersonal communication. Listening and reading are receptive skills because a learner doesn't have to produce these skills, they receive and understand. Speaking and writing are productive because learners have to produce language. As an experienced language teacher, I am proficient in teaching these skills. I am very fluent in my use of English and will be able to teach and develop these skills in learners.
