About Me
italki teacher since Mar 16, 2020InterestsMusicArtReading
Hi! My Name is Ayden and I'm an English teacher from the UK. I've been teaching English for about 7 years, both in the UK and in Japan.
I have a lot of experience teaching Academic English at Universities here in the UK and in Tokyo. I also have a lot of experience preparing students for the IELTS exam.
My time learning Japanese has helped me to understand the kinds of problems that students have while learning languages and has helped me to grow and learn as a teacher.
My Hobbies include Music, Photography and Bouldering. (Did you like the music in my video? I wrote it!)Me as a Teacher
IMPORTANT-
-I do not teach children or high school students. I only teach adults.
-Please give 24 hours notice before a cancellation
My teaching style is relaxed and fun! I try to focus on my student's specific needs.
I have a a BA degree in "English Language with Education Studies" from De Montfort University and I also received a CELTA in 2013.
I've been teaching English since 2014 and I've had students from all over the world. I began my teaching in the UK, and soon began preparing students for their IELTS exams.
In 2016 I moved to Japan and taught at two Universities in Tokyo, When I returned to the UK I helped to prepare students for their University studies here in the UK.My lessons & teaching style

Ayden is a terrific teacher. His linguistic knowledge is amazing. He is not only native speaker but language practitioner, so he knows how it is to learn a second language. Thanks!

Ayden is a great English Teacher! He accurately assessed my level of proficiency and skillfully crafted individualized lessons to improve my written, vocal and grammar competence. He varied the lessons in terms of format and chose topics that were of interest to me. Ayden is dedicated to helping his students improve their language skills. He is positive and supportive. he has a good sense of humor and is genuinely caring. I enjoyed learning from his lessons.
