PLEASE NOTE: I am no longer giving lessons to children at this time.
Hi there! My name is Rob. I am from the United States and I live in Mississippi. I have been teaching English on Italki since late 2018, and since then I have helped English learners from all over the world to improve their grammar, pronunciation, and conversation abilities. In my spare time I am learning Mandarin Chinese. For fun, I like to exercise, cook, listen to music, play games, and travel.
你好!我叫Rob。我来自美国,在密西西比州。我很想帮助你练习英语。我们可以练习对话,阅读,语法,发音或词汇。请记住,我只能用英语授课。另外,我现在不教孩子。很期待见到你!
Me as a Teacher
As of December 2021 I will have been teaching on Italki for 3 years! I have had conversations with many English learners from many countries and am familiar with how to make English understandable. I will be happy to point out and errors you make in your speech and offer corrections. I consider myself a pretty laid back guy, and I like to meet new people just like you!

Rob is my favoirte English teacher in Italki. He patiently teaches you English without wasting a min. he is always on time and opens to the topic you would like the most to discuss. The way he teaches English I think is the most effective way in a short period of time .
I hope he stays with us here for a long time. and also I wish him the best of besties in his life.

I'd like to dedicate some word to Rob, I do it for free.
Rob is a real teacher, he has a great grammatical knowledge and a substantial preparation, but his key points are the soft skills that you can't learn to in college: his patience and his passion in listening to his students. In just 3 months my English has
grown considerably and thanks to Rob, I found an important job in a international company.
I owe him a lot. Thanks Rob

rob seemed have lost interest in teaching.
he came in the latest class unprepared, with no teaching material.
he showed no interest in our conversation and i had to try very hard to guide the conversation. he showed no interest in expanding the topics and interacting with me.
he didn’t teach me any useful words or phrases in the latest class .
also, he yawned several times during the class, which happened consistently in the past few lessons.
after the class i tried to message him on Italki about next lesson topic but he didn’t reply. i don’t think there is a need to continue our classes.

My English has comprehensively improved thanks to Rob! Whatever I ask him to do for the class, he always accepts it and helps me. It is really lucky for me to practice English with him. Words can't express how grateful I am!
