ESOL / EFL: English tuition for speakers of other languages
Tutors take into account key considerations when teaching English to speakers of other languages. They know the importance of understanding the background and needs of students to help tailor your lessons to specific needs and goals.
Learning a new language can be challenging, so it’s important that the tutor is patient and encouraging with your students.
- Using authentic materials, such as news articles or videos, can help you learn English in a natural way.
- You’ll be encouraged to speak and practise English as much as possible.
- While it is important to cover all language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), focus will be put on the skills you need the most help with.
