I am a Malaysian of Indian origin; I did my university education in France and subsequently worked there at Lyon University till I retired a few years ago.

I now live mostly in Malaysia and am still teaching both English and French privately as well as science subjects and mathematics.

Teaching Approach

When I taught English at Lyons University, I was enjoined to follow a strict scholastic approach for my students as it was a compulsory examination subject for them Nowadays for my private students I tailor my French or English lessons according to their individual needs. For those who are learning the subject, esp French, primarily for social conversation, I use audio-visual aids,e.g. video clips, songs, news reports, etc to enhance their interest, whereas where I teach English, mainly at high school /college level, I prefer essay-writing as the norm.to improve students' vocabulary and expression.

Availability

I have a flexible schedule as I a prefer to limit the number of students I accept at any given time, so as to give each one greater individual attention.

Teaching Place(s)

I am available to teach both online or at my home and am also willing to teach at the student's home or workplace. Ideally for student's home or workplace tuition, I would prefer not to exceed a 20km radius of my home at Ampang Jaya.
