About Me
italki teacher since Feb 22, 2015InterestsArtTravelMusic
Hello, my name is Jimmy and I am a native English teacher from Ireland. I have a Bachelors Degree in Digital Technology & Design as well as a Master's Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language. I was born in the USA and moved to Ireland when I was a child, so for this reason my accent is very clear and easy to understand! My background is in Performing Arts, and I've been involved in Music, Theater, and Visual Arts from a young age. I enjoy travelling and have been to over 30 countries so far!Me as a Teacher
I first started teaching in 2012, spending eight months in France teaching English through theater performances with the educational company E.I.T.C. I relocated to Malta in 2014, where I worked at the Elanguest English Language School, as well as with the Performing Arts School, Stagecoach. In 2017 I moved to Vietnam, where I taught English to students of all ages and levels.
I consider myself to be a patient, friendly, and relaxed teacher, who is capable of adapting the class to the
needs of the student.My lessons & teaching style
I encourage the student to speak as much as possible during our lessons, correcting them when it is necessary. I enjoy using learning materials such as: Short stories, Poetry, and News Articles to keep the classes interesting.My teaching material

Jimmy is really cool and professional. During the session, he let me talk a lot and corrected me at some points. We had some good talks about different topics. I enjoyed that lesson.
