About Me
italki teacher since May 8, 2024Interest topicFilms & TV SeriesTechEnvironment & NatureTravelPets & Animals
Hi there, I'm Sam from South Africa. I am a tutor with a 120-hour TEFL certification and a diploma in Law. π
I love meeting new people from all walks of life π€. I am unafraid to take on challenges and push myself to learn and grow. I believe that stepping out of our comfort zone is where real progress and development happen.
Currently, I'm learning Spanish because I dream of traveling one dayπ«π. I enjoy spending my free time trying out new recipes in the kitchen and diving into a good book. I'm also teaching myself how to code and, I am proficient in Responsive Web Design. I look forward to sharing my passion for learning and exploring with you!ππ€Me as a Teacher
I believe in the power of education and the joy of helping others learnπ. I bring passion for teaching, a warm heart and patient demeanor, and a commitment to making learning enjoyable and effective.π
I am eager to assist students in improving their English skills and providing them with the support they need to succeed. What sets me apart is my dedication to creating a supportive and engaging learning environment, where students feel comfortable and motivated to learn. πβ
My goal is to inspire a love for learning and empower students to reach their full potential. I go the extra mile to assist students in reaching their language goals and improving their English skills.My lessons & teaching style
In my online lessons, I am kind, patient and enthusiastic. My lessons are customized based on each student's learning pace, preferences and ensure personalized learning experiences.
In my class, I use participative teaching, where I involve students in activities and I create real-world learning experiences, case studies, and hands-on activities to enhance understanding and application of concepts.
I engage students through interactive activities, discussions, and multimedia resources. I combine online resources, such as videos and interactive tools, with traditional teaching methods to create balanced and a holistic learning experience.My teaching material

Teaching experience
2021 - 2021
Assistant TeacherAs an assistant teacher, I supported the teacher in various aspects of classroom management and student support. This included assisting with lesson preparation, classroom organization, and providing one-on-one or small group support to students who needed extra help reading and writing in English. I also helped in supervising students during activities, maintaining a positive and safe learning environment, and occasionally leading small instructional sessions.
Education
2018 - 2022
Bachelorβs - LawA diploma in Law teaches you about rules and regulations in society. You learn basic legal rules, how courts function, and about different types of laws like criminal law (for crimes) and contract law (for agreements). You also learn about being a good and ethical legal professional. The program often includes practical experiences, like internships, to practice what you've learned in real situations. Overall, it helps you start working in legal jobs or continue studying law.
Work Experience
2018 - 2020
Early Childhood Development TeacherI worked as an Early Childhood Development teacher for two years, helping young children learn and grow. An ECD teacher plans, and implements age-appropriate lessons and activities like games and crafts that help children learn important skills while having fun. We watched how well each child was was doing and gave extra help when needed. An ECD teacher plays an important role in laying the foundation for children's lifelong learning, social-emotional well-being, and future academic success.

The best teacher I've met on iTalki! What really makes her stand out, even compared to more experienced tutors, is her natural ability to create a comfortable space where students feel free to talk and express themselves. Her nice attitude and strong dedication make every lesson enjoyable and effective. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a supportive and skilled teacher (just please don't book my usual timeπ)
