***please note that I am not currently accepting lesson requests as I'm on holiday. I will be back again on 12th August :)
I am a CELTA qualified English teacher with around 11 years of teaching experience and a French and Spanish degree.
My experience includes:
1) General English (Beginner to Advanced level)
2) Business English
3) IELTS Preparation Courses
4) University pre-sessional Academic English coursesMe as a Teacher
I am a dedicated and patient teacher who puts a lot of effort into planning lessons. I help students to feel relaxed and comfortable during classes, so that they can practise without worrying about making mistakes. I listen carefully to students’ mistakes and design activities to help them to improve.My lessons & teaching style
I plan my classes related to students’ individual interests and learning goals. I plan activities that are entertaining and give students plenty of speaking practice.
Here are just a few examples of activities that I plan for my students:
- Communicative activities based on specific grammar points (role-plays, personalised conversations, games etc)
- Business English role play activities (job interviews, presentations, negotiations, meetings)
- Listening and reading activities (using TED Talks, newspaper articles, songs)
- Topic based discussion lessons based on students’ interests
- Mock tests and other activities to prepare for the IELTS examMy teaching material
