Hello, everyone! My name is Steven Serrao and I come from the prosperous nation of South Africa.
I am currently 22 years of age and I am in the final stages of completing my BA in Psychology and Labor Relations Management. I also host 2+ years of teaching experience in which I have taught to people of ALL ages and from ALL backgrounds. Needless to say, this has been wonderful for my personal development.
I am a naturally friendly and talkative person who enjoys reading business news (as well as political news), playing guitar, and staying on top of the world of sports. I love discussing current events, literature and prose, craft beer, basketball, psychological causes and effects, and much more! :)
The English language has always been a great passion of mine. From a young age, I would enjoy reading many verses of poetry, as well as pieces of classic English literature. Over the years, I have come to realize that my passion also lies in educating the minds of others. I simply love sharing knowledge of the English language and I always keep it interesting.
I take a very student-centered approach to my teaching. I identify the needs of my student and adapt the lesson around them. This allows for a very thorough learning experience, enabling the student to speak and think independently without hesitation or fear. My strengths include; - correcting pronunciation, - explaining terminology (pronunciation, definition, variations, and contexts), - reviewing spelling, - suggesting alternative grammatical structures, - correcting the flow of speech, - introducing and explaining new idioms and related expressions.
