While working with kids, I try to help them understand and explain the world around them. Studying a new language is not about only Phonetics or Grammar, it's a huge complex consisting of closely interdependent elements as; culture, origin, history, bridges of past and present, prospect for the future. Studying a new language without a cultural framework is like cooking ethnic food without local spices. Language profoundly influences the way people see the world. Understanding this helps to build bridges between the tutor and a learner.
With kids we make new interests together and share ideas, we search and find a reason to learn. Songs, Games, audio and video materials, funny lessons full of interesting information and joyful moments.
The content of each lessons varies depending on the reason why each of my student is learning the language: speaking, business, school and other. Though main aim is to teach students profound grammar course and enough vocabulary to communicate with each other.
