About Me
italki teacher since Sep 26, 2024InterestsMarketingBusiness & FinanceEnvironment & NatureFoodTravel
I'm Ken from the Philippines, passionate about travel and cultural exchange. I frequently join language exchange activities and have hosted events in Cebuano, Tagalog, and English. With a strong background working with US-based companies, I believe language connects people and brings the world closer together.Me as a Teacher
As a practical teacher, I focus on imparting knowledge that is directly applicable to everyday life. I take the time to ensure my students truly grasp the material by patiently guiding them through the learning process. My priority is to guarantee successful skill transfer, checking that students can effectively apply what we've learned in real-world scenarios.My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is dynamic and engaging, incorporating my love for travel and culture to make lessons as lively as possible. I begin by covering the fundamentals, then gradually introduce useful words, build sentences, and encourage free talk to practice. I offer optional yet valuable assignments to reinforce learning, and I always conclude each session by ensuring that real progress has been made.My teaching material

Teacher’s pick
Ken was very clear with his lessons and very relatable in social contexts. Introducing informal slang and teaching when to use which phrases in certain situations is exactly what you need when talking to other native Filipinos. If you want an instructor on how to sound like a local Filipino, he's definitely the one! I will definitely book more lessons with him. Highly recommend!

I enjoyed my first lesson with Ken. His English is very good and that made it easy for him to explain things to me, as English is my native language.
He is very knowledgeable in Cebuano and I am sure anyone wanting to learn this language will be very satisfied with his teaching. I look forward to future lessons!

Ken is great at breaking down and explaining exactly why words and phrases are being used to help you completely understand how to formulate sentences. He's been great!

Mr. Ken was exceptionally patient and open to questions when I had difficulty understanding concepts through verbs, vocabulary, etc. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn Tagalog in a fun and exuberant way.
