Overview

I have twenty-five years of experience as a Montessori teacher. I completed the Montessori teacher training course and obtained a PGDM in Learning Disability from the Spactics Society of Karnataka. Teaching has always been my passion; I have provided home tuition.
I have also been able to handle the Department of Special Education for the Cambridge Board in an international school. However, my current interest lies in conducting online classes. I have received specialised training to work with students who have dyslexia, are slow learners, have learning disabilities, AD/HD, and have intellectual disabilities. During the pandemic, I started conducting online classes, and one of my students, a slow learner, made remarkable progress under my guidance. Within three years, he transitioned to a regular school and became a school leader at Ryan International School. Witnessing such transformations is incredibly fulfilling for me.
I offer online classes for grades one to five, covering curricula such as IB and IGCSE. Additionally, I specialise in providing support for students with special educational needs. My online classes are conducted for one hour, primarily using Zoom as the communication platform. To enhance the learning experience, I utilise resources like IXL, Twinkle Resources, and Study Ladder tools. To ensure students have access to necessary materials, I also send workbooks and additional resources via email. This allows them to practice and revise the concepts covered during our classes. By providing these supplementary materials, I aim to create a comprehensive learning environment for my students.

Teaching Experience in detail in Class I-V Tuition

With more than 20 years of teaching experience, I concentrate mainly on children who have reading, writing, spellings and comprehension issues. I also handle children who need individual attention in numeracy. Be it the four operations or simply remembering the times tables, that little extra support I provide which ultimately makes a huge difference in their lives. With patience and understanding I have brought most children to mainstream academic levels.

Teaching Experience in detail in Spoken English classes

I have been in this field for the past twenty years and have handled children who are low on self confidence due to lack of communication in English.

In this age of `new normal', we need to weigh the pros and cons of online teaching for preschoolers. Preschoolers would tend to benefit surely in a few ways. Let's not deny the fact that they would be missing out on their social skills, discipline and time schedules. We will now look into the positive side of online teaching for children under six years.

*Firstly, they learn at their own pace. Since most schools have a tight schedule to complete the academic year portions, many children may find it challenging to cope with the set reading and writing skills and math skills. It is desirable at this stage that the child is allowed to learn at his pace with individual attention by the tutor. Same would be the case with children who are quick learners. They have the time to explore more things and not wait unnecessarily for the other students.

*Secondly, children who are slightly introverted or haven't opened up yet or lack proper social skills have an excellent platform to join in the discussions with the teacher and raise questions which he may feel may not be possible in an open class.

*The child has more learning options. It is upto the teacher to find out the best learning method for a child. * The child enjoys the benefit of individualised schedules. He can choose to devote more time for either literacy or numeracy whatever needs more attention.

It may not be possible in a classroom set up. *Involvement of parents is more in this case as the parents may sit through with the child during the online sessions. They may observe how the teacher teaches and try to help the child at home in a similar manner.

* Comfortable learning environment could also be one of the benefits of online education. The child is in the comfort of his home, amid his parent and a conducive environment provided by his caretakers.

These could be some of the benefits of online education for preschoolers.
