About Me
italki teacher since Oct 10, 2019Interest topicWritingReadingFilms & TV Series
Hello, my name's Alex and I'm a Professional Teacher here on italki!
I'm a TEFL qualified teacher, and I've been teaching English in South East Asia for over 5 years.
I specialise in Conversational English for Adults and Teenagers, and English for Kids.
I'm from London in the UK, so if you would like any advice about travelling or living in London or England, please contact me! I am also a published author, and a lover of books, so if you need any creative writing tips or want to discuss literature, please don’t hesitate to ask.
I'm an outgoing person, and it's important for me to create a relaxed atmosphere in the classroom to make my students feel confident.Me as a Teacher
I'm a native speaker, and I speak with a London accent.
I'm lively, positive and energetic. I enjoy teaching children, and they respond well to my personality!
I also love to speak about a variety of topics with adults and teenagers.
If there are specific topics that you'd like to discuss in our lessons, that's great! I encourage my students to let me know what they want from our sessionsMy lessons & teaching style
My Conversational English classes for Adults and Teenagers are casual. I provide discussion topics for each lesson, and help students build on their English skills by correcting their grammatical and pronunciation errors. These classes also assist students to improve their vocabulary, fluency and general knowledge of English.
My English for Kids classes are fun and engaging. I create positive lessons to keep children entertained, so that they pay attention whilst learning! I like to use flashcards and games to make sure that young learners are enjoying the lesson. If children are engaged, it means they are learning!Certificates

Alex's teaching style is engaging. With his vast vocabulary, as a writer himself, he introduces me to a lot of useful and new for me words in every session. Beyond just teaching the language, he provides invaluable insights into the cultural nuances, making the learning experience holistic. I enjoy our sessions, as they are not just educational but also filled with intriguing stories

I think it's really cool that my English teacher is a book writer. Alex seems to be a storyteller. I'm going to read the book he mentioned in class. Thank you, Alex. :-)

The lesson with Alex was fun! We got to swap some great life stories which made the whole experience really engaging. I loved how the lesson felt like chatting with a friend, which made learning way more enjoyable. Totally recommend if you’re looking to boost your English skills in a cool, laid-back way. Looking forward to the next session already!
