Azama's Teaching Method and Techniques
Student-Centric Discussion
Student-centric discussion is a teaching strategy that allows students to understand more about topics or concepts via collaboration and cooperation.
It involves detailed discussion on topics or ideas that eventually boost students’ confidence, productivity, and implementation skills. It also improves their comprehension, speaking, and listening skills that reflect in their assessments.

2. Collaborative Learning
Collaborative learning is a teaching strategy that focuses on encouraging teamwork and partnership. It involves bringing together students with various skills in groups for solving a problem or completing a task.

3. Flipped Classroom
Flipped classroom is an innovative teaching technique that works in contrast to traditional classroom learning. In a traditional classroom, students are introduced to new concepts and are asked to practice those concepts as homework.
Whereas, in a flipped classroom, students learn new concepts in their homes and practice them in school in the form of presentations, debates, or lab experiments. This not only increases students' engagement but also boosts their self-confidence and analytical skills.

4. VAK Teaching
VAK teaching stands for Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic. It is a very comprehensive teaching strategy that focuses on improved learning experiences using three main sensory receivers.
As per transitional beliefs, students tend to use their senses to learn and understand new concepts. VAK teaching allows students to recognize their dominant and preferred learning styles.

5. Spaced Learning
Spaced learning is a teaching strategy that makes practicing a skill or retrieving information efficient for students. This is one of the best teaching practices a teacher can adopt in his/her classroom.
It involves breaking a long course into multiple short sessions or modules and making students understand them with appropriate breaks. This helps students in retaining information better.

6. Differentiated Instruction
Do your students seem to be falling behind? Do you want to improve their performance? How can you adapt to student Learning needs?
This is where the teaching technique of differentiated instruction comes in. Differentiated Instruction entails adapting training to match the needs of each student.
Whether teachers diversify material, methods, products, or the learning environment, the use of ongoing evaluation and flexible grouping ensures that this approach to instruction is successful.

7. Dual Coding
Dual coding is combining words and visuals such as pictures, diagrams, and graphic organizers with the subject material to improve the learning & memory of the student.
This teaching strategy still stands today as one of the most robust ways of teaching. With dual coding, you combine visuals with words to convey information that requires less effort to understand to students.

Azama's typical lesson plan
1. Anticipatory Set
The teacher focuses the students' thoughts on what will be learned. (Tie in yesterday's lesson with today's lesson. Get them interested.)
An anticipatory set is defined as a short activity or prompt that focuses the student's attention before the actual lesson begins. Used when students enter the room or in a transition, the anticipatory set might be a hand-out given to students at the door, review question written on the board, two short problems presented on a transparency on the overhead, an agenda for the lesson written on the chalkboard, etc.
2. Objective and Purpose
Students learn more effectively when they know what they are supposed to be learning and why. Teachers also teach more effectively when they have the same information. (Tell what/how/why/ the students are going to learn.) The purpose or objective of the lesson includes why students need to learn the objective and what they will be able to do once they have met the criterion, how they will demonstrate learning as a result. The formula for the behavioral objective is: The learner will do what+ with what+ how well?
3. Input
The new knowledge, process, or skill must be presented to the students in the most effective manner. This could be through discovery, discussion, reading, listening, observing, etc.
Input includes the vocabulary, skills, and concepts the teacher will impart to the students, the information the students need to know to be successful.
4. Modeling
It is important for the students to "see" what they are learning. It helps them when the teacher demonstrates what is to be learned. The teacher shows a graphic or demonstrates in a concrete way exactly what the finished product looks like. Remember, a picture is worth a thousand words.
5. Checking for Understanding
It is important to make sure the students understand what was presented. One way this can be done is by asking the students questions.
The teacher uses a variety of questioning strategies to determine “Got it yet?" and to reflect on the pace of the lesson: "Should I move forward or back up?"
6. Guided Practice
The students practice the new learning under direct teacher supervision.
The teacher leads the students through the steps necessary to perform the skill using a trimodal approach: hear/see/do.
7. Independent Practice
When the teacher is sure the students understand the new material, they assign independent practice.
The teacher releases students to practice on their own based on learning that has occurred during the previous steps.
8. Closure
At the end of each lesson, the teacher reviews or wraps up the lesson by posing a question for the class: Tell me or show me what you have learned today. Closure is not necessarily an endpoint, but more of a final check for understanding.

What Sets You Apart as a Tutor
My expertise in the Subject Matter: I have a deep understanding of the subject I am teaching. I am knowledgeable, well-versed in the curriculum, and capable of explaining concepts clearly. I have excellent verbal communication skills to help my students understand complex ideas. My written communication is also impeccable as I might have to contact my students by email or write comprehensive notes for them to use in the future.

Who the lessons are for (ESL degree, level, class, specificities, etc.)
ESL stands for English as a Second Language. It's a program that uses techniques, methodology, and a special curriculum to teach English language skills to international students. These skills may include listening, speaking, reading, writing, study skills, content vocabulary, and cultural orientation.
