Teaching Approach

As my "Niche" I teach is very specific in nature, I focus on the specific needs of every student. There are skills that are required for all IELTS students to acquire and of course each student is unique, so my methodologies would use a variety of techniques to address this : Directed self-study. Adults tend to learn through three styles in varying degrees and combinations: visual (see it); auditory (hear it); kinesthetic (do it) and Learner centered.



The problem is that you don't feel confident in your abilities to achieve the band level you need to gain maximum points for immigration. Your pronunciation can hinder the message you are trying to communicate. Before speaking you translate what you want to say from your Mother tongue into English. This affects your fluency. You struggle with repetitive mistakes with your verb tenses.

You can't find the words you need to communicate your answers immediately.
You receive low points for your Speaking exam which will make it difficult for you to immigrate to Canada. You can answer questions, but the answers are slow to develop and are not easy for the listener to understand. Because your inability to use simple present, simple past, and simple future tense correctly, you do not receive the band level you need for maximum points in the IELTS Speaking exam. The necessary band level is not achieved and your families dream of a new life in Canada does not happen, which has a negative effect on your children's future. Not achieving the necessary band level leads to a feeling of failure and lack of motivation.

Rest assured, you are not alone!

With my help you can feel confident that you are well prepared to achieve your desired band level for the IELTS speaking exam. You will able to communicate your message clearly in a way that can be understood. You will be able to think in English and communicate your thoughts in a clear and timely manner. You will use the appropriate verb tenses with 100% accuracy.

Because of your motivation and all your hard work, your dreams will come true. With the necessary band level your family will be able to immigrate to Canada and your new life will begin. Your goal will be reached and your future will be filled with new possibilities.
