About Me
italki teacher since Feb 14, 2021Interest topicGamingHistoryTravelFoodFilms & TV Series
Hi Everyone,
I am twenty-seven years old and am living in Italy. I enjoy reading, especially about history I hold two degrees in History as well as a Level 5 TEFL Qualification. I would love to chat with you about history, literature and music.
My teaching style is centered around conversations and getting you to feel comfortable speaking in another language. I can also make specific grammar lessons if that's an area of difficulty.
I am in the process of learning Italian, which has been my objective during the past few years and I hope to share some of the techniques I have used in helping you to speak English and gain confidence.Me as a Teacher
I have a level 5 TEFL Qualification, which I obtained in March, and have taught private one on one lessons to several students, with a variety of different goals since March of 2020My lessons & teaching style
I believe strongly in learning through doing, in my lessons we will mainly focus on speaking, listening, and some reading. I agree that grammar is important, but should be learned slowly and only when needed. There is no point overwhelming the beginner with loads of boring grammar drills in tenses that you will never use.
Instead in my lessons, we will focus on speaking and listening, and slowly incorporate grammar when it's needed, in this way learning grammar and vocabulary will hopefully seem less boring and more natural. However, if you need specific lessons focusing on an aspect of grammar this is something that I am more than comfortable with organizing.My teaching material

168 Hour Level 5 TEFL - TEFL.ORG - 2020I had to complete a 168 hour course based on 8 modules each with a series of tasks and assignments at the end in order to show that you have absorbed the information in the course.
The course had modules on teaching theory, lesson planning, teaching children and adults as well as several other modules that gave me a firm grounding both in theory and practice

David is always friendly and courages me speak freely. I made some casual and formal speak with him and it was quite pleasant. I suggest him a lot!

I couldn't imagine discussing about Dostoevskiy's book in English with the person that didn't grow in Russian-speaking society. But this teacher made it real! I'm excited of what has happened! Thank you for your lessons!
