I have experience with teaching children age 4-12 all levels- beginner, intermediate and advanced. I covered various topics and grammar lessons, as well as everyday conversation and communication skills. Depending on the parent's requirements I would focus mainly on one aspect of the lesson or the other- grammar, vocabulary, conversation or developing the topic further.
I have quite relevant knowledge of arts, science, literature and philosophy and really enjoy teaching those subjects trough language classes as well.
I usually start the class with a short conversation with the student, asking him to describe me his day activities and what he enjoyed doing that day. Then I ask him some questions about the theme of the lesson and set up the language background for the given material. While teaching the lesson, I focus mainly on the vocabular and new words and student's understanding of them. The second thing is grammar, and also reading and pronunciation practice. The students are usually quite satisfied with this approach. The last thing at the end of each class is review, where I go trough the main subjects of that day' s lesson briefly with the student. The classes I held were 25 min. long and I managed to organize them in this way efficiently.
I also adjust this sheme to the student and his level of English, and with that in consideration prepare the material of certain difficulty that would be challenging for him.
My schedule is flexible and I can adjust to the client. I am mostly available between 12h-16h Serbian Time (GMT +2) working days, but I am open for other times and days as well.
Online via Skype. At the client's home if he/she is situated in Belgrade.
