Owen Kelleher

All of my classes are tailored to each student's specific needs and abilities. My classes have a strong focus on accuracy and fluency. In my classes communication will only happen in English, I will not spend the whole class lecturing, I will be guiding the student to discover the language at their own pace and style. I use various methods of teaching to suit each persons style and ability of learning. Each class will include activities for speaking, listening, reading and writing, unless the student has a specific need they wish to focus on.
Content will include interactive and varied exercises that will focus on grammar, functional language, conversation, and error correction. Students are expected to show up to classes with a willingness to participate and ask questions.
In individual classes, the focus will be solely on the student's needs whereas in group classes students will be encouraged to converse with each other in English and help each other learn from one another. Individual needs are constantly re-assessed to ensure that each student is challenged and improving.
