Hello to you!
My teaching 'style' stems from my deep love for the subjects that I teach. Working with passionate learners from around the world is an added bonus for me! My strength lies in being able to work with all types of learners. Thus, top results are an outcome of the process but not my sole aim. If there is an unwavering love for learning, a good mark always follows.
To speak more pragmatically, my teaching methodology is different for each learner. I chalk out a detailed plan for each individual as per their requests and needs. Assessments and revision sessions are planned accordingly. It works best for me to let the student lead the process; and use my professional skills to help them achieve their goals. In many cases, I also offer a lot of information on how to study abroad, how to migrate, how to navigate the international study/work markets, etc. However, I am a stickler for punctuality -- respect for time is crucial! No missing classes or showing up late, please :)
I hope this tells you a little bit about me. I work out of my little home in Mumbai city. I moved here recently and have been enjoying all the things that a bustling city has to offer!
