Teaching Method

My teaching approach is principled eclectic, which means I tailor my methods to the individual needs of each learner. I use a variety of teaching materials, including textbooks, slides, videos, and audio recordings, to create engaging and effective lessons.When teaching children, I believe in using elements of play, discovery, and multisensory learning. This helps to keep them motivated and engaged in the learning process.For adults, I believe that effective teaching requires empathy, understanding, and perseverance. I create a supportive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable taking risks and making mistakes.I respect the learner's right to determine the direction of their education, and I help them to make informed choices about their learning path. My classes are a blend of seriousness and fun, each used in its appropriate place. Learning should be enjoyable, not tedious.
