I am an English speaking Canadian. I have a University degree in Education from the University of Manitoba, and a certificate to teach English from the University of Winnipeg. I have over twenty years of experience as as Early Childhood Educator, and 5 years experience tutoring English, and instructing English classes as a substitute instructor.
I have attended various professional development workshops related to encouraging listening and speaking in English. I am working at an on-line course in French, at an intermediate level.
I have had over 20 years experience as an early childhood educator. A large part of our day was involved in developing literacy skills. In the last 5 years, I have worked as a tutor with international students from beginner to advanced levels,and helped a woman prepare for citizen ship exams.
I normally begin with a needs assessment for a new student, and use this information to plan future lessons. In planning the lessons I use a number of on-line resources and techniques I have observed experienced teachers using in class I try to use a communicative approach...and keep in mind what is relevant to the student.
I am flexible, and will make every effort to adapt to the students schedule.
At a clients home, at a Winnipeg library, or a coffee shop at a quiet time.
Frances was great. We had two Ukrainians, a Cuban and an Iranian student makeup. She structured classes geared towards their needs. Would definitely recommend.
Francis was an excellent tutor. Really took the time to me sure I understood everything. Really patient and very accommodating to my schedule. Really helped prepare me for my grade 12 English class!
Thank France, my confidence to speak English start to grow up.
