Chaline F.

Hello, I am Chaline, I am a fun loving, enthusiastic person. I live in sunny South Africa and I am a teacher at Zaza’s School.

I have  TEFL and TESOL certification.  I am able to teach students of all ages and students with different levels of  proficiency in the English language.  I have worked in the corporate world, so I am able to help Business Professionals and Adults in topics such as marketing, finance, compiling presentations, writing business letters, professional conduct for business meetings, taking minutes, setting up daily tasks and answering telephone calls.

My lessons are fun, busy, creative and interactive. It is important for me to establish my student’s English language proficiency at the very beginning.  This will allow my students to develop individually and to find their own strengths and weaknesses.

I use the following teaching methods in my classroom;The TPR method(Total Physical Response), which is used generally for young students. For older students I use:  warm up activities, relia, songs, games, flash cards, facial expressions and body language, concept checking(CCQ).  I also use the Communicative Method, The Natural or Direct way and the Blended Method. These English Second Language(ESL) methods allows me to keep my teacher talk time(TTT) to a minimum and brings my student talk time(STT) 65% — 70%.

I look forward to meeting you in my classroom at Zaza School when you pick me to help you achieve your English goals.

Bye Bye see you soon
