About Me
italki teacher since Oct 5, 2018
My main interests are different cultures and studying languages - I think about English a lot too. I really like meeting people from around the world. I've lived in Toronto, Canada and Tokyo, Japan and visited France, Spain, The US, Mexico, Brazil, Korea and Australia.
I also like trying food from other countries, although I became vegan recently so maybe I can't try many things now..
I listen to music a lot, especially big famous rock bands. It's fun if we can introduce each-other to some groups. :) I watch soccer sometimes too, go Liverpool, ha ha!
Me as a Teacher
I care about speaking normally (correctly) -that means correcting things.
I don't say "it's ok.. people will understand.
Students often know grammar, but don't know how to use things,
eg: I have to/I should/I must or I'm going/I'm going to go/I will go, etc. #
I want to teach you to use them like native people.
I also teach pronunciation and can help you using pronunciation form your language (if I know it).
I can teach the speaking section of IELTS and TOEFL. I can help you to answer the questions well.
My lessons & teaching style
My style is simple: correct everything. You say something, I stop you and correct things, then continue.
eg: you say "this afternoon I will go to shopping"... then I will say:
"One second, please.. there are 3 mistakes: "I'm going to go shopping this afternoon"
Then you ask "why, why, why??.." and I will try to explain. :)
Am I strict? yes, maybe.. but you will improve a lot very quickly!
:)

My first lesson with Keith, it was great! Not just talking, Keith corrects, explains why and gives advise how to fix your mistakes. Thank you!
