About Alissa

Hi! My name is Alissa. I'm currently in my second year of pursuing a Bachelor of Education in Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL) at Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI).

I'm looking to offer part-time English tutoring during my semester break to share my knowledge, gain experience, and help students improve their English skills in a fun, patient, and engaging way.

Academic Background:
• MUET: Band 4.5
• CGPA: 3.85 (First Year)
• Strong foundation in English grammar, writing, speaking & comprehension
• TESL coursework includes language acquisition, teaching strategies, and lesson planning

Available for:
• Primary & Secondary school students
• Grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, writing, speaking, exam prep
• Both online or in-person (within Penang Island)

Why choose me?
✓ Passionate about teaching and helping others
✓ Friendly and patient tutor
✓ Clear explanations with simple examples
✓ Will tailor lessons to suit each student's level and learning style

About the lesson

As an English tutor for both primary and secondary school students, I focus on creating a supportive and interactive learning environment tailored to each student’s level and learning style. I believe that language learning should be fun, meaningful, and confidence-building.

In my lessons, I use a mix of visual aids, real-life examples, games, and simple storytelling to make grammar and vocabulary easier to understand especially for younger learners. For secondary students, I integrate exam techniques, writing practice, speaking activities, and critical thinking tasks to prepare them for academic success.

A typical lesson begins with a quick warm-up (a fun quiz or speaking activity), followed by a focused learning section (covering grammar, vocabulary, or reading comprehension), and ends with practical application—like writing a paragraph, group discussion, or answering sample exam questions. I always check for understanding along the way and adapt on the spot to suit the student’s needs.

What makes my method unique is how I blend creativity and structure. I design lessons that feel like a conversation, not a lecture so students feel safe to express themselves and grow at their own pace. I also give students simple tips and memory tricks they can use outside the classroom.

If you're looking for someone patient, enthusiastic, and dedicated to making English enjoyable and effective, I’d love to support you on your learning journey!

Alissa is a great English tutor. She has taught me for 2 years and her technique has made me more fluent to speak in English, and also I got a band 4.5 in MUET last year. Since she is TESL student, she taught me the basic grammar in English, introduced new, unique vocabulary and also how to pronounce words properly. She is very kind to her student because she is very soft-spoken, polite and cares about everyone. So, I extremely recommend Alissa as your English Tutor.
