I always base my classes on the interests and needs of my students so that they are relevant and my students are engaged. I prefer to use a communicative method of teaching and always encourage my students to practise their English as much as possible in class. This way, I can correct any mistakes and they can gradually overcome their fear of speaking in another language. I use varied and interesting materials which focus on all skills the student wishes to practice. These include materials which focus on speaking, listening, reading, vocabulary, grammar, etc. I source materials from teaching websites, English course books, news sites and also use authentic material (material not designed for teaching specifically, such as songs, newspaper articles, videos, brochures).
