THE LEARNING TOOLBOX
Top-Notch Teaching
Welcome to Learning Toolbox. I have been working as an English teacher with children for several years. I wanted to create a space to spread and develop my ideas for teaching. From teaching children as little as 2 years old how to read and recognize word patterns, to helping teens pass their English exams to get into better schools. I have a passion for developing better teaching methods that can create a fun learning atmosphere. If you are a teacher, parent, student or friend, please feel free to use the research I post and the ideas for your use in the classroom.
