About Me
italki teacher since Oct 2, 2016InterestsMusicHistoryTravel
Hello! I am an English and Indonesian teacher from the United States. My favorite thing ever is to travel! I've been to Mexico, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, South Korea, and Malaysia, and I can't wait to travel to more countries in the future. I lived in Indonesia for 2 years as a service volunteer, which is where I learned Indonesian. I also studied there at a university in Yogyakarta and was an intern at Indonesia's national radio station! I am very fascinated with other cultures and traditions. Let's talk about your country's culture!Me as a Teacher
My top priority is to create an environment where you never feel ashamed, nervous, or embarrassed to speak English. Everyone is still learning, including me!
I have been teaching English for over 6 years and Indonesian for more than 4 years. I taught the beginning Indonesian course at my university and was a teacher's assistant for the advanced Indonesian course. I love teaching because it gives me the opportunity to meet people from different backgrounds and countries all over the world! I have experience teaching different kinds of people of all different ages. I believe that the most helpful part of my teaching is that I understand what it feels like to learn a new language.My lessons & teaching style
I tailor my teaching to every student's needs and my teaching style is relaxed. I believe the best kind of practice for any language is just having casual conversations with a native speaker of that language. If you want to talk about specific topics with me to practice, great! If you have specific questions that you want to ask me about grammar, spelling, pronunciation, etc., great! If you want to practice reading or writing with me, great! Let's do what works for you.
*If I have another lesson scheduled after yours, I will end our lesson 5 minutes early to prepare for the next lesson as per iTalki guidelines.
**I do not assume responsibility for student's internet connection issues.My teaching material

He is always very attentive and answers all of your questions as eagerly as he could. His explanation is keen, insightful, and also concise. Absolutely one of the best teachers I ever met here italki.

Colton is always trying his best to help his students to improve their English. He has great work ethic. And he's the best Itaki teacher I have ever had so far. And I don't think I could find a better teacher. Colton's class is just superb.

I really like having a lesson and talking with Colton about various topics. He is a cool teacher and nice person. I have been studying English with Colton for almost a year. And I can say that every lesson was awesome and informative. Highly recommend Colton for everyone, who wants to study English effectively in a friendly environment.

Colton, thank you so much for whole this year. Our lessons are always “in the penthouse of my heart”!
Thank you for all your support and that you accept me for who I am. Thank you for all motivation and inspiration! For patient when I can’t express myself in English. You are nice teacher and great person (and “if you were the prize I’d cheat to win”) 😊
Warm wishes and Happy New Year 🎈 Can’t wait to continue our weekly lessons next year 🍾
