For writing tasks, I typically break it down into four main components: (1) Organization, genre and structure; (2) Argumentation, clarity and logic, (3) Language, grammar and diction; (4) Substantiation and development. I identify students' prowness in each of these sections to develop strategies to hone their strengths and improve their weaknesses.
Comprehension of grammar rules, then practice and review.
How to understand a text from its genre, structure, hints (e.g. title, description), comprehension questions and language used
For general English sessions, depending on the goals of the student, we will go through literary passages annotating and understanding the arguments or ideas presented. There will also be questions to ascertain the level of comprehension of the student, including any specific literary devices utilized. Critical thinking is developed from writing and generating arguments on various topics.
We learn correct pronunciation and improve intonation through reading passages and correcting during verbal communication or presentations.
My sessions are always tutee-centered, which means that I try to address any concerns or difficulties that the tutee has through tailoring my approach, rather than run lessons in a one-size-fits-all manner. For presentation and communication skills, I will first identify their weaknesses - e.g. pitch, clarity, brainstorming, before going through sessions complete with mock presentations (their target setting - e.g. classroom/ business) and shorter conversational style discussions to boost their confidence (e.g. discussing recent news).
I have personalized handouts with examples to guide students in their understanding. I also use popular grammar textbooks (either provided by student or myself).
A lot of encouragement.
I am familiar with the local HKDSE curriculum (5** 2020 HKDSE) and the EFL, ESL and English Literature IGCSE curriculum (A* 2018 IGCSE).
I identify the mode of exam that they are targeting (HKDSE, IGCSE, IELTS, university) or any task prompts for the assignment.
I always encourage a proactive learning approach rather than spoonfeeding, which ensures that students are engaged and inovlved during the session.
