Grant

I'm Grant, a qualified and experienced ESL teacher at Skyeng.

I started teaching 23 years ago but spent most of my working life in business. My heart brought me back to teaching though, to what I'm passionate about and where I feel I can serve best. I get huge self-fulfillment by watching students learn and learning with them. I use extension to lead my students into an environment where learning can take place.

Within structure, I make classes relaxed, where I lead my students into learning rather than simply giving lectures. I prefer to honestly talk about the topics being taught, using my experience in the actual topic and drawing from the students experience to learn vocabulary in a contextual way and to teach grammar with realistic examples and exercises. On a personal level, I still run a small profitable busines, I have a large family with five children and try and get the most out of life for my family and myself. We love living in Africa where we enjoy it’s hot sun, unspoiled nature and it’s pristine beaches.

If learning English is what you want or need to do to get the most out life, then allow me that privilege of serving you in that way. I teach all ages from 4 year olds starting off, to adults wanting to improve their skill or prepare for an English proficiency exam, or needing tuition in business English use. If you are here, then there's a good chance that that's what so I look forward to seeing you in my classroom.
