Welcome back to another instalment of my blog series to introduce you to my teaching philosophy. I hope you enjoy today's topic!

Today we’re looking at the third aspect: I believe successful learning is based on enjoyment.

And no, this does not (always) mean that learning must be fun. 

But it does mean three very important things and when you put these three things together, you will enjoy learning English even when it’s hard!

1. You have to be stimulated by the topic that you are learning: 

1. Does it make you think deeply? 
2. Does it make you curious? 
3. Do you forget that time is passing by while you learn?

2. You also have to be able to notice progress while you are learning: 

1. Were you able to talk for longer this time?
2. Do you stop making some of the same mistakes?
3. Did your teacher say you’re improving?

3. And lastly, you must have a passion for at least one or two aspects of English, for example:

a. You love Marvel movies, and want to enjoy them in English without subtitles,

b. You’re a big fan of Avril Lavigne, and you listen to every one of her songs on repeat, or

c. You admire British etiquette, and you aspire to speak and act in a royal, polished manner.
 

Through my lessons, I will help you cultivate a love for English, through approaching English via your personal interests, and the aspects of English language and culture that are exciting to you.

I think that’s enough for today! I’m excited for you to read the last part: My Teaching Philosophy Part 4: Proper Pronunciation and Intonation—The Basis of Good Communication.
