About the tutor

Hello! I'm Joumana Naja, a passionate English tutor with a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics TESOL. My teaching philosophy revolves around making learning enjoyable and effective for students of all levels, be it adults, professionals, or college students. I believe in creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel motivated to excel. With expertise in ESL, IELTS, ACT Reading, AP English Language and Composition, ACT Writing, and general English, I tailor my lessons to suit individual learning styles and goals. My student engagement strategies involve interactive sessions, real-world examples, and personalized feedback to help students reach their full potential. Let's embark on a learning journey together and achieve academic excellence in English! Meaning Development Skill: My teaching approach is based on semantic theory that encompasses the recognition of meaning making skills in the processes of communication. I utilise the real world occurrences of each of the macro-skills to display the creativity of meaning making. I acknowledge the excellence of cultural contribution of semantic development, growth, and teaching.

Teaching methodology

As an ESL, IELTS, and English tutor, I believe in an Elaborative, Interactive and Structured teaching methodology to engage students at all levels. I make sure to choose reading materials that align with the interests of my students, be it fiction or technical writing. By incorporating peer reviews, I encourage constructive feedback and foster a sense of community in the learning process. I assess students' reading and writing skills meticulously and tailor a systematic plan to enhance their abilities. My goal is to make learning English enjoyable and effective for adult, professional, and college students alike.In my teaching, the methodology I take could emphasise communicative and student-centered learning. In these processes, I might prioritise language acquisition through real-life contexts, focusing on speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. Lessons could also be tailored to individual learner needs, promoting active participation through discussions, role-playing, and group activities. Incorporate multimedia, authentic texts, and technology to enhance engagement, encouraging learners to use English in practical situations is also utilised. I also adopt a task-based approach, where students complete specific tasks that mimic real-world challenges. Feedback is continuous, helping students develop accuracy and fluency. Finally, I make sure the emphasis of cultural awareness and global communication skills, fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable experimenting with language and learning from their mistakes.
