About Me
About Tutor lily
I am very patient and try to improve my students' pronunciation, listening and conversation skills. I have teaching certificates for:
TEFL
TESOL
I've taught students from various backgrounds, including young children; young adults; and mature adults. During my 3+ years of teaching, classroom sizes have ranged from one-on-one tutoring to small groups (3-5 students), to even large-audience classrooms (12-15 students). Regardless of the student's age or classroom size, I use techniques that involve evidence-based learning, where the students build on fundamentals and logic. I enjoy teaching and watching my students learn. I hope to soon be applying these teaching techniques on my students in the classroom.
