Each class with the younger students consists of a fun, energetic song to grasp the attention of the student. I regularly engage the students in activities that helps them remember what they have learned and occasionally test their spelling skills with word games. I have taught more than 100 students and have over 860 hours of teaching abroad. I have a successful demo turn over rate with over 26 students signing up with the school within my first month of entering China and i2 International School of Education. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, I had been teaching my children online and have learnt a different style of teaching to engage learners as well as provide a fun filled, game-based learning environment that still encouraged learning English for young individuals.
