English as a Second Language (ESL) Lessons for all levels
From 29 C$ /h
My teaching method is determining what the student would like to achieve and gain from the tutoring relationship. I will cover the following main areas of language learning: reading comprehension, listening comprehension, new vocabulary, written exercises for homework and speaking practice (this is all dependent on the level of the student).
I am an Australian-born student studying Law at the University of Edinburgh. I have grown up in the United Kingdom and English is my native language. I have had one year's experience tutoring English as a volunteer mentor for a local charity in Edinburgh (LinkNET).
