About Me
italki teacher since Feb 6, 2018Interest topicSports & FitnessMusicHistoryFoodTravel
•Native English speaker and Cambridge-qualified teacher from Liverpool in the UK, currently living in Strasbourg, France.
•I'm an avid language learner. I speak 6 languages (not all fluently, of course): English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, and Russian.
•My other interests include food, cooking, philosophy, football (I'm a Liverpool fan), and many other sports and outdoor activities.
•I have travelled to around 25 countries. Some of my favourites were Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Greece, and Peru!Me as a Teacher
•I have 6 years of experience teaching English to people from around the world, both online and in person.
•I received my CELTA teaching qualification in 2019, allowing me to further improve my teaching methods and classes.
•I have experience teaching English at a school in Bordeaux, at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, and as a volunteer in South America.My lessons & teaching style
•My classes are mainly based on speaking and discussing different topics but will have some grammar sprinkled in. We will use articles, videos, and presentations to help guide the lessons.
•I like to allow my students to speak as much as possible and apply the grammar and structures they have learned to a conversation. The lessons will be super relaxed, and I'll make sure you feel comfortable, correct you and guide you if you make any mistakes. :) But don't worry, making mistakes is the best way to learn.
•I am a very relaxed person in general, and this is also how I like to carry out my lessons. I want you to be relaxed and comfortable in our lessons, as if you were talking to a friend.My teaching material

Owen is very patient und his teaching method is very impressive. He knows where the students need explaining and he explains that in a very clear way. He also gives me tips on how to learn new collocations. Just want to keep learning English with Owen! Thank you Owen!
