About
Dave Maddocks
Hello, I'm from England.
I work full-time in a co-ed secondary school in Brunei Darussalam.
Apart from teaching in the UK, I've been teaching overseas since 1993. I've taught ESL and EFL to students in Primary schools, Secondary schools, a university as well as to groups of business managers. I’ve also taught in Saudi Arabia and Hungary. I worked for four years in an International school here in Brunei, teaching the National Curriculum and IPC to Y5 and Y6 students.
Presently, I help my students improve their level of spoken and written English. I prepare them for their IGCSE ESL and GCE 'O' Level exam. I also specialise in teaching the English language required in order to pass the TOEFL and IELTS exams.
I think I'm quite a creative person. I like my English lessons to use music, art, history, sport, in fact anything which interests the students. I try to make all my lessons enjoyable and interactive while maintaining a focus on the grammar and the 'nuts and bolts' of the English language.
