Profile
I am passionate about teaching adults and children. I have a vast experience of more than 2 years of teaching online lessons consisting of groups and one-on-one -ones (kids and adults from ages, 5-60+). I’m able to prepare classroom activities that are designed to engage the students, these include Audio Files, /business Articles, Flashcards, Test Templates, Image Files, Presentation Slides, Video Files, Quizzes, Homework Assignments, and Graphs. I am an expert in encouraging students to do their best in class. I also instil interaction and role plays in class as a means of giving each student a fair chance to practice their vocabulary. I also do have some practical classroom experience teaching History, Social Science, English, Life Orientation, and Physical Education to Primary, Senior, and Further Education and Training learners. I am Adept in the application of excellent communication and problem-solving skills. I am currently in possession of a degree in Social Sciences with Psychology and Industrial Sociology as my majors.
