My lessons would be based around the student's needs, so we would focus on the areas they are most keen to cover, whether this is close-reading of texts, developing essay skills, or building comprehension and confidence. I would lead the teaching and come to every lesson with ideas prepared, but I would also let the student guide their learning. (So, if we end up spontaneously covering something different to what I'd planned, that's alright!) I'd like for students to get involved in lessons by engaging in discussion and feeling comfortable asking questions. It would be a relaxed dynamic in which the student and I talk on equal grounds. If there's something the student doesn't understand yet, I'll be patient and try out a different approach. What works for one student might be different for another; the great thing about a tutor is that these lessons are made for you! You'll be an English whizz in no time, trust me.
