My name is Shalia Anthony and I am 30 years old. I reside in the city of Durban in South Africa. I had been an online teacher for an agency servicing students of iTutorGroup in China for 2 and a half years. I have completed a 120 hour TEFL course and I am currently studying towards a bachelor’s degree in supply chain management through MANCOSA.
I believe that education is a vital part of our lives and helping students to further their education in any subject means to encourage the progression of human beings as a whole.
English is my first language, and I would now like to assist others in developing their skills so that they can accomplish their educational goals.
Over the years as an ESL teacher I have been exposed to many different cultures and people from all walks of life. I enjoy learning from others as much as I enjoy others learning from me. I believe that patience with students is absolutely vital in building their confidence as much as is teaching them the fundamentals of the English language.
I have been teaching both adults and children of all levels and I understand that teaching styles vary according to their differences in their ages and requirements, meaning that every single lesson has to be adapted to better facilitate the learning of that particular student.
I enjoy my job very much, it brings me pride and pleasure to see my learners progress and improve their skills on a daily basis. I look forward to meeting new people and seeing new faces and improving the lives of others through something as invaluable as education.
