English (ESL) with Savannah F.

My name is Savannah Freeman. It is a pleasure to be in contact with you! I am an American English teacher with 10 years and counting experience. I currently live in Indonesia, but before this I spent 4 years in the Chinese cities of Qingdao and in Shanghai. I have gained valuable and useful in-class and online teaching knowledge and pedagogy that have definitely molded me to be caring, patient, and an efficient teacher. I can speak Mandarin Chinese, Spanish and Portuguese. As I mentioned earlier, I did work online in the evenings for some Chinese platforms and I absolutely know what is needed for company standards and what is needed to create a not only educational but also entertaining atmosphere even when I am instructing and giving feedback online. I never let the barriers of being online become a barrier between motivating and encouraging students. I am also a very happy and humorous person which helps in grabbing student’s attention and keeping it for the lesson. I utilize props, articles on current and interesting events for discussion, planned and thought- provoking questions for conversation, games and visual images in my lessons. This has made me a well-liked teacher, which is a subtly valuable quality in this ESL industry. If students don't like you, then your success as a teacher in this environment will be low. I always give my best and would love to be a part of your English teaching team. I believe that without a doubt I can contribute a patient, kind, and motivating spirit for the students and families you work with. In conclusion, I think could offer my valuable experience, amazing teaching methods, passion for teaching, and focus on student success. I look forward to hearing from you!
