I am a fully qualified teacher with over 10 years of teaching experience in Math's, Science, Biology and English. I have taught a variety of age groups from the younger learners all the way up to 13.
the teaching methods I use usually depends on student. I like to get to know my students and determine whether they are auditory learners or sensory learners etc. and find out the things that they enjoy and see if there is a way in which I am able to incorporate that into my lessons taking in to consideration the best way that they learn. Sometimes you need to incorporate more than one method. E.g sometimes I use direct teaching and include game based learning or experimental learning to solidify the concept that is taught.
I am relatively flexible and if necessary make arrangements in order to help my students. I am available Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 16:00. Special arrangements can be made for the weekend if i am informed in advance
Currently with the level 5 lockdown that we are in unfortunately I would only be able to online lessons via Skype, zoom or even via Google meetings.
When the lockdown regulations change then I would be willing to tutor my students at their homes, taking all Covid -19 safety measures and protocols into consideration.
