About Me
italki teacher since Apr 3, 2020Interest topicArtTravelReading
I am a native English speaker and I live in England.
My hobbies include: drawing and painting, reading, cooking, hiking, bird watching, climbing, travelling and being outdoors. I have also recently started Thai Boxing.
In January 2020, I returned to the UK after travelling in South America for four months. I have also spent a lot of time travelling South East Asia and Europe. My favourite things to do when travelling includes meeting new people, eating local foods and learning about the different cultures.
I look forward to hearing about your home country!Me as a Teacher
I am a friendly and patient teacher, excited to help you improve your English language skills. We will have relaxed informal lessons to help you gain the confidence to use your English.
I have a bachelors degree in Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Studies from Liverpool John Moores University and I have a 140 hour TEFL Certificate including 20 hours in a classroom.My lessons & teaching style
In our first lesson, we will have a friendly conversation on your hobbies and interests as well as why you want to learn English. This will allow me to adapt your lessons to make them fun and engaging, while allowing you to improve your English.
After the first lesson, we can continue informal conversation classes or discuss any grammar points you struggle with such as: tenses, prepositions, passive voice and many others. We can also use articles before and during the lesson to encourage discussion, practice pronunciation, comprehension and reading.
The lessons will be about your goals and what you want to achieve, meaning you can direct the lesson. Corrections given when they are neededMy teaching material

Just wanted to reiterate what a great tutor Amy is. She's now been tutoring my sister for nearly 2 years and their efforts are most certainly paying off! Amy's always well-prepared, extremely patient, diligent and inspiring.
I'm so pleased with my sister's tuition under Amy's guidance.
