I enjoy teaching students of different ability levels and cultural backgrounds and take pleasure in making the subject interesting for my students. When teaching, I aim to provide a stimulating and interactive learning environment. I plan my lessons with care to make sure that I've included appropriate activities and exercises for the student’s level by using a variety of teaching strategies and methods to support the engagement of all learners (including making provisions for students with learning difficulties by differentiating activities that are suitable for the different learning styles). I also like to help students achieve their full academic potential and get them inspired about the world around them.

Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die. I believe that I am taking a huge initiative to be one of the individuals who'll try to save this important language from disappearing.
I try to make my lessons as interacting as possible. The lessons and exercises will be provided through PowerPoint presentations. I try to listen to my student in order to prepare the lesson plan together, according to his needs and preferences.
I've always been the smiling and friendly tutor who makes the student comfortable during the lessons. I believe that in order to reach the students you need to understand them also emotionally and psychologically.

Drawing on my experience teaching in middle and high school, I offer support and private tutoring to those who need it. I provide online lessons for all levels, from middle school to high school. Need to review a lesson or methodology? I'm here to help. I have also participated in marking the national Brevet exams and served on the Grand Oral juries. Therefore, I can provide support before these exams.

Difficulties in history and geography can be varied. I can help answer your questions. My first goal will be to identify your specific challenges, and then, through an initial discussion, to define your objectives in order to develop a shared learning strategy.

History and geography can seem daunting, full of dates and names to remember. I will also strive to show you how fascinating and captivating they can be, not only for younger students who need extra help at school, but also for older students who want to broaden their general knowledge or satisfy their curiosity.

Fill it fully — longer, detailed descriptions rank better and convert more students. Mention your teaching style, what students will achieve, and any materials needed.
The biggest gap I see is the Class Title and Category fields appear empty — those are critical for appearing in search. Fill those in first before posting.

Lessons are tailored to each student’s needs and may include:
