1
First of all, thank you for giving me the opportunity to be interviewed today.
2
My name is Min Kuei.
3
I am 22 years old and I recently graduated from the University of Languages and International Studies .
4
I also hold an IELTS certificate with a 7 .0 overall band score.
5
Regarding my teaching experience, I started as a teaching assistant at American Studies, where I was responsible for tracking student progress,
6
writing detailed performance reviews and directly communicating with parents.
7
Later, I transitioned to becoming an online English teacher at Kina, focusing primarily on one -on -negative -one classes.
8
Through writing continuous student evaluations and managing individual learning pathways at Kina, I significantly sharpened my student -centered teaching methodology,
9
adaptability, and classroom management skills.
10
I learned how to tailor lessons to suit each student's unique personality
11
and learning speed while maintaining strong engagement through interactive digital tools.
12
In my opinion, the biggest challenge in one -on -negative -one online teaching is the lack of physical presence and student distraction.
13
Unlike offline classes, you cannot physically walk over to check their notebooks or observe their body language directly.
14
To overcome this, I frequently use quizzes and games to transform passive lectures into active tasks.
15
By keeping students constantly engaged with sub -questions and digital interactions, they will likely to stay focused throughout the entire session.
16
First, I maintain a supportive tone rather than scolding them.
17
I would say, I can't hear or see you clearly.
18
Please check your connection or device settings.
19
If technical issues persist, I seamlessly switch to alternative channels, asking them to type answers in the chat box or write directly on the shared screen.
20
If a student intentionally refuses to cooperate, I keep my composure, finish the session professionally, and later inform the center first.
21
I investigate the root cause to see if the homework was too difficult, too long, or if they were overwhelmed with schoolwork.
22
To address this, I break assignments into bite -sized tasks, such as recording a one -minute audio response instead of writing a long essay.
23
I also implement a reward system.
24
If they complete their homework for three consecutive lessons, we dedicate the last five minutes of the next class to an interactive game on a topic they love.
25
Instead of overwhelming them with complex explanations, I break the concept down into smaller, simpler sub -questions or offer option -based choices like A or I.
26
I will also incorporate visual aids and real -life examples rather than relying purely on abstract grammar rules.
27
Well, I will always have a backup device.
28
If I suddenly lose my internet connection during a session, I will immediately use my phone's 4G data to send a quick message to the student
29
or parent informing them about the brief technical issue so they don't feel confused.
30
And then I will switch my laptop's Wi -Fi connection to
31
my phone's mobile hotspot to get back online within one or two minutes.
32
Once I reconnect, I apologize for the interruption, thank the student for their patience, and extend the session by the exact amount of lost time to ensure full lesson coverage and quality.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
