Teaching methodology

My teaching approach for ACT English focuses on communication, empathy, problem-solving, creativity, and flexibility. I prioritize clear communication to ensure students understand complex grammar, reading, and writing concepts. I approach each lesson with empathy, recognizing that students may struggle with different areas of the test and offering personalized support. Problem-solving is central to my teaching, as I help students tackle questions logically and efficiently. I encourage creativity in answering questions and organizing essays, ensuring students can express their ideas clearly and persuasively. Flexibility is key—I adapt lessons to each students needs, whether theyre focusing on reading comprehension, grammar rules, or writing skills. In addition to ACT English, I also teach related subjects such as writing strategies, reading comprehension, and grammar, ensuring a well-rounded preparation for the test. My goal is to make learning engaging, supportive, and focused on student success.
