Jonathan Tang

Every child has potential that is yet to be unleashed. As a teacher, my duty is to help my students blossom. During lessons, instead of telling my students all the answers, I would rather they tell me theirs and we work together through the process of polishing this. I wish to empower students to actively engage in class, while creating a warm and friendly learning environment for students to make mistakes, then learn from them and grow.

Jonathan Tang uses interactive teaching tools to help his students develop a passion for English. He believes every child is unique, which is why he learns the needs of his students and tailors lessons specifically to them. Jonathan’s English Studies degree focused on sociolinguistics, linguistics, and communication, which has taught him many useful skills for working with a range of students. While at HKU, he also joined the English Debating Team, which trained him to think critically and express himself clearly on a wide range of topics. Having coached debating and solo verse speaking in secondary schools, Jonathan understands the need to build up a number of skills to reach a goal, and he particularly enjoys working with students on their communication techniques and the organisation of their ideas.
