Hello, my name is Desmond and I'm from Cameroon. I'm an experienced ESL tutor with over 5 years of experience teaching English to students of all levels that is; kids, beginners, intermediate and advanced learners. I know learning a new language can be challenging and difficult, but I'm assuring you to worry no more because I'm going to be patient with you, be your guide, and make you learn in a calm and fun environment. I enjoy listening to music, watching soccer and playing video games during my leisure time and love listening to the different hobbies of my students which helps us to have an engaging learning environment of which I focus to achieve the goals of my students which could either be to improve on; Speaking, Reading, Writing, and Listening abilities. I have 5 years of teaching experience. I'm TEFL/TESOL Certified and just completed my Master's degree in Applied Geology and a holder of Bachelor's degree in Geology/Earth Sciences. My lessons are very engaging and exciting due to the different teaching techniques I have developed and implemented over the years, which work best for the different levels of students I teach. Some of the teaching techniques used during my classes are Reading comprehension of which we practice to improve the student's ability to understand different daily concepts of our day-to-day life. Using realia, which are classroom materials used during ongoing lessons of which we talk on topics such as hobbies, homework, and the use of whiteboards to make them to be able to express themselves which being faced with real life situations. For exam preparations such as those taking the IELTS, TOEFL and TOIEC test, we do mock trials with previous materials from past exams, which either helps to boost their confidence during these exams, which could be for them to study in a foreign country, or wants to improve on their business skills for a promotion. For kids, there are many songs, rhymes, audios, watching videos, which I practice with my students to make the class lively for them and give them time to talk about topics such as animals, daily routine, sports, hobbies, vacations and movies. For students who want to consider English as their second language, we do conversational English where we have different topics that we practice together and do many dialogues and role-plays to improve their fluency and accuracy. I teach different subjects of English such as Kids English, Grammar, Business English for business professionals, Exam preparations, English for work purposes, interviews either for traveling or studying abroad or most especially for those who want to consider it as their Second Language (ESL) and Conversational English.
