English & Vietnamese Teacher – Basic & Intermediate level

I am a certificated TESOL teacher.
I has 6 month experiences with kids, adults.

While teaching, I feel good and happy when my students feel also good and happy because they learnt the key points of my lectures. When my students are not truly satisfied with the content of my teaching, I tell them that on the next classroom, I will explain to them what I have missed in the current lecture. I am not afraid of telling my students that there could be some occasions where I don't know. Indeed, there is always an unknown to be known, and the more we know the more ignorant we are, which they generally accept. While teaching, I am more a mentor and organizer of learning experiences and situations, such that my students actively understand, reinvent and reconstrcut everything they learn, than a simple transmitter of ready made and established truths imposed on them from outside. In other words, I avoid indoctrination and brainwashing. This means that I make use of the active methods, not the traditional or conservative ones, and appeal to due technology when it is appropriate.

I have taught Vietnamese foreigners for 6 month. I can speak English. I worked in Food & Beverage industry after graduation. Now I feel happy when I’m teaching Vietnamese, sharing my mother tongue to others. I also like book, history and want to share them with my students.

Showing students what they need to know, promote self-learning and help students develop critical thinking skills, retain knowledge that leads to self-actualization. Once you find your students not able to understand a particular concept you should be ready to adapt new methods of teaching to explain to them. I feel that teacher should act as a guide to allow the student to choose his method of learning. He should share his experiences which give them vital life lessons. I always feel I learn from my students.
