I have experience with students from as young as 8 years of age, and also with teens and adults. The types of lessons I give vary greatly depending upon the student’s needs. So for example with the younger kids I provide interactive lessons with multimedia content such as short videos, including songs and poems etc. These generally follow a fixed structure with a warm-up activity, which is usually a game focusing on grammar or vocabulary, and then an online lesson from the British Council online platform. I find this platform to be really useful and effective.
I try to make the learning experience as fun and comfortable as possible for the young students. For my adult students I mostly have conversational lesson where we simply chose a topic and I ask questions and we have discussions where they practice their speaking and listening skills. These types of lessons sometimes just involve having a conversation with the students as they simply need to have conversations with a native speaker to boost their confidence, improve vocabulary etc.
