Laura G.
Wilfrid Laurier University
English MA Student
Hello, my name is Laura. I started tutoring ESL elementary-school students a couple years ago, and I would love to continue helping students improve their English skills through online tutoring. I completed by English and Psychology degree at Wilfrid Laurier, and am currently completing my English MA there as well. A bit about me: I love cats, crochet, and chocolate! As you can see, I also enjoy alliteration. I use both my passion for English and creativity to help accommodate tutoring sessions to fit the needs to the particular student, as I realize every student learns differently. I am qualified to tutor English for multiple reasons. For one, I have taken multiple English and Psychology courses relevant to teaching the English curriculum, such as: Learning and Developmental Psychology, Infancy and Childhood Psychology, the Fairy Tale, Children’s Literature, Tween Literature and Culture, and Young Adult Literature. I have also demonstrated high academic achievement. My overall GPA average is 9.6, while my Criminology minor GPA is 10.00. A specific academic achievement I have made in university is being on the Dean's Honour Roll in 2019. Relevant Skills: • Proven ability to create and facilitate positive experiential learning environments developed through various academic and community volunteer roles • A history of academic merit and academic excellence as evidenced through both high school and university performance • Excellent oral and written communication skills established through years of daily practice analyzing, summarizing, and creating written materials, conducting research, and effectively communicating ideas and concepts in classroom and group discussions • Strong computer skills applied to the successful completion of post-secondary studies, customer service roles, and community volunteer positions through the regular use of Microsoft Office word and PowerPoint, Zoom, and Google docs

English teacher for IELTS / Business English / Technical English / General English
I am experienced at teaching English as a second language and preparing students for Academic IELTS exams. I have taught in the UK and in Abu Dhabi and have tutored students from various countries. I use a structured approach to teaching, which insures that a student's progress is based on the fundamental principles of grammar. I then move forward to developing the student's ability to follow local accents and be able to communicate on an everyday level. Academic writing is also an important part of my curriculum. In addition to teaching English for academia, I also teach Business English and Technical English. My experience has involved preparing corporate students with the ability to communicate on a technical level, in order that they are able to work within the oil/gas & petrochemical industries. I have also tutored business people, allowing them to communicate and conduct their trades within global settings.

Ntokozo M.
University of the Witwatersrand
Highly experienced Physical Sciences and English tutor
I am a full-time Chemical engineering student at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg in South Africa. I am also a part-time freelance tutor and writer. I have tutored Physical Sciences to high school students and first year college students for the past 2 years and I have just recently gotten into tutoring English (with a specialty in literature, writing and conversational English). I got into the world of tutoring because I enjoy the process of unpacking complex concepts and simplifying them to such a level that everyone has access to them and can understand them. As a tutor, I strongly believe that our brains are wired differently and as such, they process information in different ways and so it only makes sense for each one of us to have a personalized and individualized learning experience that caters to our needs. To all new prospective students, a complimentary 15 minute session is available for booking. I look forward to helping you achieve all your academic goals.
