I’m a foreign language teacher. I love being a teacher and more than eight years of teaching has brought me great satisfaction. I’ve been interested in languages since I was young, after I became a teacher I was able to more vividly realise the charm of language.
Me as a Teacher
An excellent teacher needs not only a solid foundation in the language, enthusiasm, self confidence, lively and interesting lesson plans but they also need to understand the correct methods for learning(teaching) a language. During my TESOL training I learnt the theory of how our brain and body learn languages. I also learnt more than thirty different excellent teaching methods from all over the world. I have since used these methods in my everyday teaching and found them to be really effective. Over the past eight years I’ve taught more than 500 different students with ages ranging from 2 to 70 plus years. I’ve seen how their language learning has brought them great satisfaction and happine
My lessons & teaching style
if you’re a beginner I’ll use some flash cards to help you practice pronunciation.I can recommend some suitable study books for children, suitable for adults or preparation for HSK test etc. If you don’t want to use a textbook or you have your own materials that’s also fine. During the lesson apart from using Chinese, which is my native language, I can also use Japanese or English to explain.
