PO Box 26626, Safat 13127, State of Kuwait

Since joining Infocenter I have taught English to a variety of different classes ranging from complete beginners to intermediate level language learners. This role has required me to utilise a range of pre-set resources and adapt them to the needs of individual groups of students (whether they be public or corporate classes), tailoring these to suit both their language levels and learning styles. In addition to this I also have experience of editing and creating both teaching resources and assessment materials. Teaching students who vary greatly in terms of age, ability and background has enabled me to developed my ability to further adapt and refine my teaching approach and adopt different methodologies in order to cater to the needs of a diverse range of students and enhance their learning experience. I also have experience of assessing student levels, managing student data and producing summative reports.
