My name is William. I have taught both high school and college. I am now retired and work on Italki. I feel confident that I can improve your preparation for any interview or job. My areas of interest tend to center on business, technology and travel.
I have traveled to over 70 countries and enjoy exploring new places and experiencing different cultures. In my free time, I like to take Italki classes, exercise, and play board games! The feature I like most about Italki is sharing and learning about people's customs and languages.
Ich als Lehrkraft
A teacher must be flexible, show cultural sensitivity, and demonstrate a willingness to learn. Patience and humor can be effective tools.
I am also a firm believer that when students take an active role and customize their learning, both the teacher and the student benefit and become partners. I like to emphasize homework for additional practice and implement writing essays to reinforce the subject. Additionally, I will encourage watching movies in the target language as well.
Lastly, I like students to be familiar with both the spoken and formal language and to show mastery in any setting.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I am an inclusive teacher. Whatever works best for my students is my style. I like to build from students' preferences and learning styles. Real-world applications might be a suitable methodology for students who plan a trip to the target country.
Open dialogue situations where students find a plausible solution will also prepare them for a new cultural experience. Lastly, feedback is essential for the students' development. I will be positive in my suggestions but also offer future tips on how to improve. Making mistakes is part of the learning process. I will try to make students feel comfortable in this stage of learning.
I feel amazed when I talked to him I enjoyed learning at slow and clear voice Thank you so much I’ve learned new techniques today!

I just had another beautifully crafted class by William! It was full of meaningful dialogues and intriguing ideas flowed continuously! I love listening to his multifaceted and thoughtful perspectives on many petty things that are seemingly so minuscule and easy to overlook at first glance. William always inspires me to think more deeply and critically on various topics ranging from daily encounters to philosophical ones with grand themes. If you are looking for a witty conversation with a conversationist who is educated, humble, and inspirational, William is the one to go!
