About Me
italki teacher since Jun 29, 2021
Interest topicArtFilms & TV SeriesFoodMusicTravel
In my spare time I love to learn about new cultures and and languages.
Topics I enjoy discussing include travel, linguistics, [plant based] food, business, technology, tv/film & music.
Me as a Teacher
I participate in language exchanges where I conversate in English with other people who are trying to learn the language so I have experience teaching new phrases and words in English and correcting mistakes when required.
I speak with a New Zealand accent and vocabulary so I can teach you words that will be useful if you want to come to live in New Zealand.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons will be casual and focus heavily on speaking, as I think this is the best way for students to learn a language and use our time together effectively. Therefore students should be able to have a basic understanding of english already.
I can explain simple grammatical concepts but the majority of our lessons should be focused on coversation.

It was a pleasure speaking with you, Catherine! You are very friendly and funny. I didn't notice how the 30 minutes of the lesson flew by. Thank you very much for our conversation and your opinions!
