About Me
italki teacher since Aug 27, 2018InterestsScienceTechBusiness & Finance
The only thing I love more than learning new things is sharing knowledge with people, which is part of the reason I became a teacher. Working on italki has allowed me to learn about the lives, cultures, and customs of people all over the world, and at the same time teach them about my own.
I am interested in almost everything, and I am always happy for you to teach me new things!
I could be described as both an introvert and an extrovert – an introvert because I work alone at home but an extrovert because I spend my days talking with lots of people!Me as a Teacher
Over the years, I have taught many students and I believe the biggest problem for most students is lack of confidence. In my lessons, I encourage students to talk as much as possible in a natural way. You already know a lot of English - I want you to be able to use it for communication!
My particular interests as a teacher are Business, Academic, and Exam Preparation. One area that I like to focus on is writing - it is a very important skill that helps to develop your spoken English.
I have helped students pass all the major exams for immigration and education purposes, pass job interviews and get promotions, and give presentations at international conferences.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons:
I offer three types of classes:
-General English
-Business English
-Conversation
Of these, I have found conversation to be by far the most popular over the years I have been on italki. Most of the people I have met through italki already know a lot of English but need confidence to use what they already know.
General and Business English classes are structured like a more traditional English lesson with the use of books and other materials.
My teaching style:
I am patient and understanding – I am not going to rush through anything with you. I want you to be comfortable and confident throughout every session.My teaching material
