My teaching style –

I like teaching as I like meeting with different people from time to time. My biggest challenge is to get the whole class to interact with the lesson as all the students come with different personalities and characters. I believe that in order to understand the language, you have to use the language and get your tongue around it. Therefore, I always get my students involved in the lesson and force them to use the language from day 1. My objectives are to enable the students to speak the language at least at the basic level. Second, to enable the students to take their language knowledge further without my assistance.

Something unique or unusual that people might not know about me –

I have my class rules which one of them is to fine my students if they speak English during the lesson time which I call ‘Indonesia Zone, speak only Indonesian’.
