About Me
italki teacher since Dec 24, 2019Interest topicSports & FitnessTravelPets & Animals
Hello. My name is James and I am a TEFL certified English language teacher from England. I lived in London for 14 years and I have recently moved to Manizales, Colombia. My hobbies are Sports, Music, Travel and History. My wife is Colombian and I speak Spanish. Having learnt another language I know that at times it can be difficult, I will help you to overcome these difficulties and continue your progress.Me as a Teacher
I like to make learning fun and interesting. I believe that I am an animated teacher, I have over 16 years of voluntary teaching experience, over this time period I have developed different teaching techniques to help my students retain the main points of our lessons.My lessons & teaching style
I believe that conversation is the best way to learn a language. I have learnt Spanish through conversation and I would love to help you improve your English language skills in the same way. My Pronunciation and Reading class is normally based around an article of general interest, we read together and then I am able to correct any mistakes that you make.My teaching material

Under James' guidance, Quaid's expression ability has become stronger and stronger. Special thanks to James for his help. Looking forward to advancing to the IELTS speaking class as soon as possible.

I just finished another lesson with James, and, as always, it exceeded my expectations. Thanks to the lessons I've had so far, I could significantly decrease the number of mistakes I used to make, as James always points them out and gives me clear explanations about what is wrong.
Apart from that, we always chat about different topics that help me enrich my vocabulary.
