About Me
italki teacher since May 18, 2020Interest topicReadingWritingPets & Animals
Hello! I'm a world traveller happy to call the cosmopolitan city of Toronto, Canada, home. I'm passionate about language and culture. I speak French fluently, and I have a basic knowledge of Persian.
I'm a regular hiker and runner and you'll regularly find me on Toronto's extensive network of trails.Me as a Teacher
I have fifteen years of teaching experience in a wide range of contexts. I've taught ESL in Japan, Australia, and at home in Canada. I recently decided to return to my first passion, teaching, and obtained my TEFL certification from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at U of T. I also have experience helping students prepare for the IELTS and TOEFL exams.My lessons & teaching style
I like to keep my teaching method practical. Everything is based on the idea that teaching is a relationship, based on mutual respect.
My classes include a lot of conversation, adapted to your interests and current level. I’m also a believer in the importance of listening exercises, reading, and writing for deepening one’s knowledge of vocabulary and grammar. For this I introduce supplementary materials like video or radio clips, articles and blogs, or I might ask you to research or report on something that interests you.
Our first lesson will start with an assessment of your level in English. Together we'll plan goals for your lessons, and I'm here to keep you on track!Certificates

She gave me a lot of constructive ideas to improve the organisation of English essay and also inspired me to think out of my own box towards things. She is an excellent teacher.

Jessica is an excellent tutor. I asked her to assist me with several texts I needed to write, and she was very helpful in addressing this matter. I am extremely pleased with our lessons and the results achieved, and I look forward to continuing my English learning with Jessica in the future.
