Public Speaking

Public Speaking

Students greatly benefited from my reflective professor-practitioner approach to teaching and learning Public Speaking at Konyang University. Included in my academic guidance was keen focus on audience, occasion, topic, content, and time. I used materials to effectively stimulate both curiosity and creativity and provided feedback that facilitated development of confidence, use of concise vocabulary, and effective delivery. For example, I would use flash cards with words, topics, or occasions for impromptu speaking. Initially, students would not be open to spontaneity, but when I explained, and they began to experientially understand, that it facilitates creativity and builds confidence, they would welcome the activity and have fun critiquing one another as they became intellectually stimulated. Students critically benefited from video presentations, personal demonstrations, and other simulations in my coaching sessions, especially in techniques for posture, eye contact, hand gestures, voice, and use of media. Because I also take a holistic approach to teaching and learning, I motivated them by both individualized and group consideration of academic, psychosocial and sociocultural needs and interests, and those students would develop an unexpected love for practice sessions. Shy students would often say, “I really thought I could not make it in your class, but I’m glad I stayed.” Students used reflective journalling after each lesson, as well as prepared and delivered speeches on topic of interests for assignments, test preparation and final examinations. I also provided personalized coaching for annual speech contests, and students significantly benefited from the interactiveness and psychosocial approach of my techniques and lessons. Many of my peers, professors, and people in public settings have often complimented me on being an effective public speaker. I have acquired knowledge, honed skills, and enhanced my abilities in public speaking through academic and international speaking engagements.
Reading

Reading

Students greatly benefit from my reflective, creative and passionate approaches to teaching and learning Reading. For example, they draw on my passion, and become captivated by voice modulation and emotion. As in learning a language, they listen, learn new vocabulary, follow, and then burst out reading. As such, they develop confidence in reading and curiosity for knowledge. I create interesting materials to facilitate vocabulary building, attention to detail, and critical thinking, and choose stimulating readings to sustain attention. They love the opportunity to choose books and passages and to choose topics that are exciting to them. In that way, they almost always develop a love for reading. I also develop and implement assessment criteria, develop and administrate tests, conduct test preparation, and taught Reading at Konyang University, St. Georges Cathedral Primary, and Jersey City Public Library. My academic portfolio is highlighted by, (i) English Composition 1, 2, & 3 Berkeley College, USA (ii) Language and Communication University of Guyana, SA (iii) Certified Literacy Tutor, Pro-Literacy of America.

Highly recommended, absolutely no barriers in the learning process

Remarkable skill sets. She brings both knowledge and impeccable communication skills blended together with a real humanitarian outlook. I strongly recommend her as a teacher, tutor, or mentor to facilitate learning. It would be a mistake to miss what she has to offer.

Althea was knowledgeable in the subject area.

I am doing doctoral work and needed assistance in understanding what I was being asked to do. Althea was able to break it down step-by-step so that I was able to grasp the concept. So Althea was able to take a complicated subject and break it down so I was able to understand it.

Althea walked me through the necessary planning and time management needed for my doctoral studies. We looked at ways and methods to target weekly readings and articles. We then examined how to approach paper writing, discussion post and set up a schedule to f/u on these items.
