English Language

More than 3 years experience

I love helping kids with their grammar and tenses formation. This is because a child needs to understand how to use the proper tenses and articles. I understand that every child learns differently from the other. Creating a great foundation is fundamental for English learning. I teach the alphabet using sounds of the letters, I also teach the blends and digraphs to make word formation easier. Teaching pronunciation is very important. I create an environment for kids to learn through play.
I make use of flashcards; I use lovely bright coloured picture books. These are used to teach the alphabet, names of animals, fruits, vegetables, name of colours, question words, sight words and so on. Begin by pointing at the picture and telling them what it is, then ask them where it is and finally let them name it on their own. I also adopt the style of kids learning new words from word list of their class by copying spellings over and over. I have achieved termly targets set for kids to read and learn their sight words by use of flashcards, word charts and interesting topics developed for creative writing. Topics are formed around their favorite toys, cartoon characters etc
