Rapport Building
All my students love me as I am an understanding fatherly figure to them. I teach them skills and not load them with unnecessary work. As an English and a Historian, I am well placed to teach them life skills. I make sure I understand their characters, their fears and anxieties and I encourage and inspire them to make use of what God gives them. I am born and raised a Catholic la sallian boy myself from a humble background. As a Peranankan I understand many cultures.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I am trained in the new syllabuses for English ( use of rich media and emphasis on oracy skills). As a humanities teacher, I love the inquiry approach and the use of sources for students to make meaning for themselves. I guide them in the skills level.
As a Good Tutor
Many of my students are either in JC, Poly, Universities or even out there as managers and directors in the chosen field. I am born to inspire as a teacher with a servant leadership mould.
