你好!我的名字是Duran
,我是來自英國本土的英語教師。我喜歡在空閑的時候打羽毛球和斯諾克。我曾在中國、沙特阿拉伯和泰國教過英語。我有很多教初級水平學生的教學經驗,包括從幼兒園到成人。我對教青少兒和成人英語充滿熱情。我喜歡讓課堂變得有趣味性和互動性,因爲我相信這會有助于爲學生創造更好的學習效果。當他們在課堂上學得很開心時,就能有助于他們的記憶並且能記住更多的信息。我希望你能和我一起學得開心,我期待著很快見到你!

Me as a Teacher
Education is an essential component of our personal and professional growth, and it's a journey that never truly ends.With over a decade of experience teaching English in schools and universities across Saudi Arabia, Thailand, and China, I have developed a passion for helping others to succeed. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a fun, enthusiastic, and engaging learning environment that promotes active participation and student-centred learning.
I firmly believe that good preparation and time management are key to delivering successful lessons, and I strive to bring these values to each class I teach. As an experienced online educator, I have taught English to over 160,000 students
My lessons & teaching style
As an online educator, I specialize in creating interactive and engaging lessons for students of all levels. With a focus on student-centred learning, I tailor my lessons to match each student's interests and learning styles. Utilizing techniques such as TPR and open-ended comprehension questions, I encourage students to take an active role in their learning process. Through the use of role-play activities, I make grammar instruction both efficient and enjoyable. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced learner, I provide clear definitions and materials that will help you reach your language goals. So, let's learn together and make progress towards fluency!

Duran is indeed a great educator. He is professional in teaching English and he always shows a lot of care and kindness for his students. I have not only learned several pieces of knowledge from his well-prepared materials but really enjoyed the conservation with him. I strongly recommend people who are eager to learn English to get in class with Duran!!
