My name is Nadia Nyathi. I am from the beautiful and diverse country of South Africa. I have a passion for the English language. I am a dual language(English and Afrikaans) speaker with a Neutral accent and a passion for the English language. I love reading and have actively been joining some book clubs with my students. Teaching online has been such a rewarding journey for me .It has unlocked a lot of doors to know different cultures and backgrounds of the students I come into contact with. I can safely say that it has been a blessing and has enriched my life. I also love watching movies(especially romcoms) and I am absolutely besotted with K-dramas .I love cooking and I am always up for the challenge of trying or preparing new dishes. I am a very patient and friendly person who loves people. I teach in both English and Afrikaans. I live in an area where English is rarely spoken so being able to improve the ability of my student's conversational skills has had a positive impact on them as well as myself .I have two years tutoring experience both online and offline. I really love engaging with my students. My teaching methodology is based on my students learning goals as it is very student-centered. I have completed my 120hrs Tefl certificate. This allows me to teach through the usage of a range of course books and materials along with a variety of audio-visual aids and to encourage students to communicate with me using the structures and vocabulary they have learnt. In my classroom we will be learning while having fun with confidence and enthusiasm .We will be focusing on Conversational English, grammar ,vocabulary, pronunciation and so much more. My teaching style is student-centered,I focus on the individual needs of every student in order for them to reach their learning goals. It is very inclusive and we are all about leaning while having fun in our classroom. Making sure that the students are comfortable while learning with confidence and enthusiasm
