About Parth
Hello students! My name is Parth and I look forward to the opportunity to practice English with you :). My hobbies include reading, journaling, listening to podcasts, recreational sports, and spending time with friends & family. I also enjoy travelling and meeting new people from all over the world. In my professional life, I have worked for two accounting firms and one workforce development NGO.
I believe it is crucial to cultivate a student-centered classroom. I am TEFL Certified and I have 2.5 years of experience teaching English to children and adults online. I design my classes to be engaging, fun, and interactive. I encourage students to practice the target language as much as possible and to take risks while practicing the language. I am happy to create customized language learning exercises and homework assignments to help students meet their learning goals. For kids, I like to use physical games such as Simon Says to enhance learning.
