TESOL Certified Native English Private Tutor in HK

Online or In-Person Lessons: Hi, I'm Kar Wah, born in the UK and a CertTESOL-qualified teacher of English. I provide lessons to help improve your English to meet your specific needs and goals, whether for school, work, an interview, travelling, or socialising. My main goal is to let you learn English in a fun, meaningful way.

I have worked with students of various ages, children and adults alike, and of all skill levels, following the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). I have previously taught and tutored in and outside of schools in both the UK and HK for students pursuing academic, work or personal goals for 3 years.

I teach using the Communicative Approach, ensuring that the language you will learn will be useful in real-world situations in contexts that feel natural and easier to understand. By using topics that you are interested in, I will incorporate them into the lessons to be more useful to you. I use this method to ensure that the learner will be able to use English in a meaningful way. In the lessons, we can develop your speaking, listening, reading and writing skills to allow you to become a well-rounded English speaker.

Whether you're just a beginner looking to start learning English (A1) to an upper intermediate English speaker looking to polish up their skills (B2), I will ensure that the lessons are tailored and suited to your wants and needs.

I suggest bringing your own notepad or laptop to write notes on for the lessons.

Detailed Tswana/Setswana grammar class taught by Motswana
Setswana is a rich, rhythmic language spoken in Botswana, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. Belonging to the Bantu family, it closely resembles other languages in the region. I have found learning Setswana through several terrific teachers, thorough textbooks and daily life enriching. Growing up in Botswana, speaking this beautiful and intricate language, or at least making an effort to do so, can transform the way you live in Botswana. I have taught semester-long regular beginners Setswana lessons to children aged 7-12 and adults, with strong emphasis on understanding grammar by breaking it down into “formulas” for how to form tenses and sentences. I teach these and vocabulary through a mix of traditional explanatory lectures, practice exercises and creative games, accompanied by study techniques I have found very useful for learning foreign languages. I have also worked as a trained English tutor, and study linguistics at university, both of which have shaped me to better understand and teach language. Each class will consist of grammar formulas (eg: basic conjugation in the present tense: linking pronoun [for the human noun class group, for example: ke=I, o=you, o=him/her, re=we, le=you plural, ba=they] + “tla” [as in “will”] + verb), some vocabulary words, spoken or written exercises or games to go through together and longer practice exercises to build independent confidence. My teaching materials I use I developed whilst living in Botswana, and have already been used with my aforementioned classes. I hope they can help you too ! If the price is a problem, please contact me anyway and we can discuss it !
