About Me
italki teacher since Dec 16, 2017
My passion in life is people - I love meeting people from around the world and learning about their culture, history, geography and of course language. I have been very fortunate to travel and visit many countries, mostly in Western Europe. I still have a long list of places I would like to see, though, especially countries where I can practice my languages.
Me as a Teacher
I have over ten years of experience in language teaching. Although my first choice in career was to become a pilot, my path lead me to become a teacher, which I love. Any level and any age, it really doesn't matter.
My lessons & teaching style
I try to adapt my lessons to the needs of my students. Some prefer just to chat and practice their speaking skills, others want to focus more on grammar and honing their accuracy. I also like to read interesting articles with my students, in which they can learn lots of new vocabulary.

Jeanné is fantastic! She was so cheerful throughout the lesson, it made me so happy to see her and have lesson with her. And she was very encouraging, even when the grammar stressed me out a bit, she kept me motivated. I so look forward to the next lesson.

We always have new things to talk about and learn from each other, even after years we know each other :D that makes lessons inspiring and practice fun. Basically they don't feel like lessons, even though I have a hundred page of notes :D

Thanks for the lesson, Jeanné! 🍀 After a few conversations in Afrikaans, I’m getting the hang of the words I tend to use a lot 💪 I’ll definitely be practicing all the words you typed out for me on Skype! 🤓Looking forward to the next one! 🎉

Another “fantasties” lesson from Jeanné! 🤸🏻♀️ Rather than just stating my hobbies, we dove into deep conversations on each, just as I would in real life 😌 It was certainly challenging, but that’s where the growth happens! ☝️I forgot to review last week’s lesson with her, but it was my first in awhile, and it was so “lekker” (nice) to start getting back in the groove again! 🤗 She was super patient with me and supportive as well ⭐️ Dankie vir jou tyd en sien jou volgende sondag! ✨
