Their duties include preparing lesson plans, conducting classes, providing one-on-one guidance to students, grading assignments, and tests, as well as collaborating with other educators to integrate cross-curricular instruction. They are also tasked with fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment that nurtures students' language development skills, encouraging critical thinking, creativity, and promoting cultural appreciation through literature.
