About Me
italki teacher since Oct 17, 2014InterestsTravelFood
My name is Robin and I'm a native English speaker and certified teacher with well over 10 years of teaching experience.
In my free time, I love hiking, gardening, cooking, reading as much as I possibly can, and studying Mandarin Chinese.
When you watch my video you'll hear that I've lived in many different countries. That's because not only do I love teaching, I also love to travel, meet new people, and experience new cultures.Me as a Teacher
I have a BA, a CELTA (an English-teaching qualification), a second language teaching certificate from a local university, am currently enrolled in a postgraduate Teaching English as a Second Language program. All of these courses, combined with my years of experience, have helped me to grow and learn as a teacher.
My classes are student-centered. That means that, even though I'll be doing the preparatory work to plan and design the best possible class for you, ultimately you will be doing the real work by speaking, writing and producing the language in class.My lessons & teaching style
Once I know what areas you need to focus on, we can work together to come up with the best strategy to help you reach your language learning goals. Whether that is a focus on productive skills (speaking and writing) or on receptive skills (listening and reading), I'm here to help. I can also help you work on different aspects of your pronunciation such as intonation and stress.
For many people, it's also important that they like and are truly interested in what they're studying. This means that if there is a special topic that interests you or a particular teaching resource that you want to use, let me know and I'll be happy to accommodate you.My teaching material

It was good time with Robin. Great feedback to my talk for the communication skills and manner. Good correction for my mistakes. I'd like to recommend her tutor to anyone who prepare interview, or exam, or just want to talk to in English.

It was nice to talk to Robin today. We discussed wedding ceremonies and marriage issues ;)
I think she's really experienced teacher. Her feedback is important and useful.
