About your english tutor
Hello Everyone! My name is Karin, and I am thrilled to be your online teacher! I specialize in teaching English as a second language, as well as teaching English as a foreign language. I often work with young children and beginners, teaching them the basics to provide a solid foundation for their English journey. I have a background in hospitality, which has helped me gain skills that have proven valuable in my teaching career such as excellent communication skills, and adaptability towards different personalities. For the past two years, I've had the incredible opportunity to teach in a physical classroom and the energy, curiosity, and laughter of my students have been my daily inspiration. I'm excited to bring that same enthusiasm and passion to the online world. Teaching English as a second language to these young children taught me patience and made me realize that not all students learn in the same way. It encouraged me to adapt to my learners. One of the things I love most about teaching is the incredible bond that forms between students and their teachers. I'm here to impart information and create a safe, supportive and engaging environment where each of you feels valued and excited to participate. So, buckle up, because we're about to embark on an adventure of learning and growth together!

English classes overview
As an ESL tutor, I tailor my teaching methods to meet the diverse needs of students at all levels. My approach is engaging and interactive, blending demonstration with informative lectures. I strive to make learning enjoyable by incorporating multimedia resources and interactive activities that spark interest. When it comes to grammar, my approach is guided discovery. Grammar is often complicated, which results in students getting bored or frustrated. Guided discovery helps students feel empowered, and because they worked out the answers for themselves (with guidance of course), they are more likely to remember what they've learnt. To foster a supportive community, I encourage peer reviews, allowing students to provide and receive constructive feedback. Each student receives personalized feedback on their essays, highlighting strengths and identifying areas for improvement. I carefully select reading materials and writing assignments based on students' interests to keep them motivated and engaged throughout their learning journey. My goal is to create an inclusive environment where each student can thrive, develop language skills effectively, and feel confident in their abilities. By focusing on individual needs and encouraging collaboration, I aim to empower my students and enhance their overall learning experience in a meaningful way.
