About Me
italki teacher since Dec 29, 2024InterestsReadingHistoryWritingFilms & TV SeriesTravel
I love to travel and I usually spend my time abroad practising languages or reading. I graduated from the University of Southampton with a BA in Spanish, French, and Arabic, and I'm currently working on my Portuguese, Greek, and German skills. I have recently come back to the UK after spending 4 months in India - who knows where I'll end up next! When I am at home, I enjoy spending time with my partner, eating roast dinners, watching foreign films, and going on dog walks (on the rare occasion that it's sunny in the UK!).Me as a Teacher
My first experience teaching was when I was 18 and I worked as a rock climbing instruction. Since then, I worked as a teaching assistant, primarily with SEN students, so I spent a lot of time working in small groups or 1-2-1 and would be happy to tutor anyone with additional needs. I have also spent time working as an Activity Leader at an International Summer School in the UK.
As I said, I've just come back from India where I was teaching English at a school in Kerala. Having had classes of over 40, I loved making classes fun and engaging as well as getting to know my students and practising their English.
Let me know if you have any questions - I look forward to hearing from you!My lessons & teaching style
I look to focus my lessons on what the student needs, be that speaking, listening, reading, writing or grammar. I use games and quizzes to keep pupils engaged, but aim my activities at the age of my student. My lessons are 1 hour long, including a 5 minute break, and I teach all levels, including Undergraduate or even conversation practice for anyone wanting to improve their English without preparing for an exam. I love helping people prepare for a trip by learning some basic phrases! Homework is optional - if you'd like some extra work to keep practising between lessons, I can provide some but there's never any pressure.My teaching material

I really appreciate the very interesting lesson I´ve just finished. Katie is amazing and her accent is marvellous. As a bonus I can see that she is a language learner herself so she knows what students struggle with. I highly recommend her lessons.
