😊Welcome! I am Teacher J ❤️I love teaching ESL because of: 🌊Vast experience gained 🧧Enriching cultural exchange with students 😉A teacher is a student and a student is a teacher (bidirectional learning) I have enjoyed working with students of various backgrounds and ages for over 15 years as a teacher, tutor, counselor, and volunteer both online and offline.

I have created this course based on my diverse experience as an English teacher and what I have found to be effective. My course is called: 'Let’s Speak English!' It is widely known that children become fluent in foreign languages faster than adults. This is because of different aspects. Full immersion is one reason. Also, children learn quickly through pictures, color-coded sentence patterns, activities, and more. My motto for my course is ‘Learn like a child, Speak like an adult!’ One of the many adult professionals who are taking my course commented: 很久無接觸英文開頭覺得好緊張老師循序漸進式教學我覺得感覺非常好👍👍 ‘I haven’t touched English for a long time. I feel very nervous at the beginning. The teacher teaches step by step. I feel very good👍👍’ If you are like my student and haven’t touched English in a long time and have a very basic knowledge of English, I welcome you to book a trial session to experience the ‘Let’s Speak English!’ course. You may also watch a preview video posted here on my profile page. The ‘Let’s Speak English!’ course includes twelve lessons with twelve different common topics for daily use and it features: 🆎Phonics 🚗Vocabulary 🏓Describing Pictures 🔊Speaking Activities 🎧Listening 📗Reading 🔑Reading Comprehension 🎤Dialogue 📜Sentence Practice ❓Questions and Answers 💬Guided and Free Conversation 🏆Lesson Summary 📝Homework ✨EXPERIENCED BEGINNER TO INTERMEDIATE CONVERSATION Depending on the student’s needs, we can do one or more of the following: 1-GUIDED CONVERSATION For guided conversation, I use structured materials that include lessons to help with speaking about many common topics and daily situations. These lessons include vocabulary, common expressions, dialogue reading, describing pictures, role-playing, discussion, and more. 2-FREE CONVERSATION For free conversation, I use conversation materials where we choose from a wide variety of topics that come with questions and we discuss them together. We can also discuss TV series or other video material based on the student’s interests and suggestions. 3-READING, VOCABULARY, AND CONVERSATION In this case, we read short articles, focus on some vocabulary words, discuss pictures in the article, and talk about the article. 4-PHONICS For a phonics session, depending on a student’s needs, we focus on pronunciation and I explain the basics of English pronunciation. We practice reading the sounds of different letter combinations, practice reading in syllables, practice reading tongue twisters, and more. 5-WRITING For a writing session, I can explain the basics of writing an essay. I am also happy to read a student’s writing, proofread it, and offer my perspective and necessary corrections.

Students younger than 12 years of age are welcome if they are able to focus and participate without parental supervision. My past and current students have been between the ages of 5 and 70 years of age. Most of my students find me relatable, helpful, patient, and humorous. For children under 12 years old, I offer the following: 1-STORY-TALKING This includes reading picture books or watching videos of cartoons, stories, etc., and discussing them in conversation. 2-GAMES This includes vocabulary, grammar games, and others. 3-PHONICS This includes explaining the basics of English pronunciation, practicing reading the sounds of different letter combinations, practicing reading in syllables, practicing reading tongue twisters, and more. 4-WRITING Learning the basics of writing and doing writing exercises.
