I have several years of experience teaching students with similar requirements, and I believe I can help improve your language proficiency in an engaging and productive way. During my time in college I worked as a language tutor/ "conversation partner" for my fellow students. As such, the majority of my students were international students with varying levels of confidence in their English who were seeking to gain confidence and vocabulary for use in their daily life, classes, and IELTS exams. I worked with my students most often through conversations that went through a wide range of topics and allowed for vocabulary acquisition and natural application of their language skills, though I also worked with my students by reading texts, practicing presentations, and editing written assignments. This was similarly in the format of a weekly 1 hour meeting, after which I would provide a written summary of our session that the student and I, as well as other tutors they may utilize, would be able to refer back to for topics of conversation, past mistakes, and tracking progress. Through this experience, I was able to help improve the language skills of dozens of students, and I hope I can provide assistance here as well. Thank you for your consideration.
