Teaching Approach
My Approach during classes is to have the best interaction between me and my student and give them the information that they are looking for in a very simple, cheerful, and effective way.
Being social with my students is very vital during classes because it breaks the ice between the student and the teacher. I also like to start by building a rapport between me and my students. Using different methods to deliver the information is essential in my teaching methods. Each skill that we will work on requires a different method. Methods I use in class include Lecture - Discussion and Conversation - Active interaction.
