Kyle Aron T.

I’m Kyle Aron Tan, and I’m excited to support you on your English learning journey. I’m a certified TEFL holder with over two years of experience teaching learners from diverse backgrounds and proficiency levels. In our sessions, I focus on helping you communicate clearly and confidently. I specialize in building speaking confidence, improving pronunciation, and guiding you to express your ideas in a structured and logical way. My background in debate and public speaking also helps me teach you how to organize your thoughts and communicate with clarity. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy reading, going to the gym, and engaging in debate. Reading helps me continuously learn new ideas and perspectives that I can bring into my lessons. Fitness keeps me disciplined and energized, which allows me to stay focused and positive during classes. I also enjoy writing, public speaking, and debate because they help me reflect, organize my thoughts better, and become a more effective communicator and instructor. Our lessons will be tailored to your goals, pace, and learning style. Together, we’ll strengthen your fluency, build your confidence, and make steady, meaningful progress. I’m looking forward to meeting you in class and starting this journey together. See you soon! I am a graduate of the Bachelor of Science in Legal Management program, which provided me with a strong foundation in law, governance, and business principles. My academic journey developed my competencies in legal research, critical analysis, policy review, and professional writing, equipping me to approach complex issues with both analytical and practical perspectives. Beyond the classroom, I actively engaged in student leadership, serving as a Student Regent and Student Council President, where I represented the student body in high-level discussions, contributed to policy-making, and helped implement initiatives that supported academic and student welfare. These roles strengthened my skills in leadership, communication, and decision-making, while reinforcing my commitment to ethical governance and collaborative work. In addition, I am a national debater and a debate trainer for national-level competitors, experiences that have further refined my abilities in argumentation, strategic thinking, public speaking, and evidence-based advocacy. My educational background, combined with hands-on leadership and competitive debating experience, has prepared me to contribute effectively in professional environments that require legal knowledge, organizational management, and strong interpersonal skills.

I have over 10 years of experience in Education, learning, and development, teaching in both Primary and Secondary Schools. I specialise in teaching 11+, Social Sciences and prepping for national exams. I love helping students bridge the gap between what they currently know and what they need to know, by building confidence and resilience in their subject knowledge and approach to learning, especially in areas which they find particularly daunting. Engagement in learning is key. All lessons must be interactive to encourage learning and development. I encourage engagement through quizzes, questions, games, opinions, matching & sorting activities and use of mixed media. I adapt to different learning styles by meeting children where they are at, finding out what they currently know and using that information as a foundation to make learning accessible for them. I use assessments to track progress and plug gaps in their knowledge. My passion is to create successful learners who are able to achieve and exceed the goals they set for themselves. At A-Level, I studied Sociology (Grade A), Psychology (Grade B) and ICT (Grade C) at Southwark College. I then completed my BSc in Sociology and Criminology at City University, achieving a 2:1. I also have a PGCE in Upper Primary which I completed at Goldsmiths College. Additionally, I have a CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in Learning and Development.
