Hello, hello! My name is Quinton from sunny Cape Town, South Africa. I have always been interested in working in non-traditional industries, so teaching online seemed like the perfect fit for me. I have been teaching online for a year now and pretty much enjoy it every single day. Before that I was employed at a business and graphics solutions company as a Desktop Publisher and Client Liaison Agent. And before that, I worked at a theme park for about 11 years as the Assistant Rides Manager. Basically, I truly do enjoy meeting many people from all over the world. My lesson are tailored to my individual students, taking their interests, skill level and comfort into consideration. I can guarantee that we will always have fun in every lesson, as my teaching style incorporates students the opportunity for lots of free talk and the ability to ask questions if a certain concept is not immediately understood. Let's build up your English language skills together. 🤓 Conversational English for everyday use. [Course includes various activities to improve not only your speaking skills but to improve overall confidence in everyday activities such as: • “Introducing yourself and others” • “Ordering at a restaurant” • “Talking about the news and current events” • “Going shopping” • “Talking about your childhood” • “Talking about household objects” • “Using the first conditional” • “Using the second conditional” • “Using the third conditional” • “Talk about the past using regular verbs” • “Talk about the past using irregular verbs” • “Talk about the past using “was” and “were” • “Talk about your family and friends” • “Talk about future plans” • “Talk about your hobbies” The above is a short list of conversational topics, but we can craft our conversations around any topic you are interested in or want to practice in the English language. I have taught children as young as 5 years old their very first English language words when I first started teaching English online. Working with kids has prepared me to think very quickly on my feet while teaching 🤸🏼‍♀️ Through all of my lessons, I encourage students to experiment with the English language to work on errors as they are made. With that in mind, I also believe that making mistakes while learning a new language is a very important part of the journey. 👉 What to expect 👈 🗣 A friendly, online classroom atmosphere where there are no stupid questions. 👨‍💻 A detailed analysis of your current level and the strategy we will use going forward. ✍️ Lots of writing practice along with speaking and listening skills incorporated into each lesson. 👮🏻 Classroom Rules 👮🏻 ✍🏻 Always have a pen/pencil and notebook/sheets of paper ready before lesson start. 💪🏻 Experiment with the English language to build your own confidence during lessons. 🖐🏻 Always ask questions if something isn't completely understood. 🕵🏼 Be willing to participate in all the activities to better consolidate self-learning. ↘️ Always check your connection and devices before class starts. ↘️ Cancel the class 24 hours before class. If you have to cancel a class within 24 hours, be sure you notify me though What’s App/AT
