About Me
italki teacher since Jun 21, 2021Interest topicTravelHistoryFoodEnvironment & NaturePets & Animals
Hello! My name is Lindsey Morris, I live in South Africa and I am twenty-five years old. I thoroughly enjoy meeting new people and am excited at the prospect of assisting students with their learning goals. I am a positive and encouraging person, and will always remind students of their capabilities inside and outside the classroom.
I enjoy exploring new ideas and challenging myself as I get older.
I have studied High school level teaching to gain more insight into teaching topics that I enjoy - Dramatic Arts, History and Psychology. I really enjoy the practical side to educational studies and enjoy the community outreach involved in service learning programs at our university.Me as a Teacher
I have studied various topics around learning, education and psychology that furthered my insights into the teaching and learning process. I enjoy using activities and games to get to know learners and to allow them to express and explore their ideas in the classroom.
I hope to empower learners by engaging with their learning goals and interests and with activities and exercises that promote their personal learning style. Discussions, games, assessments and music will be prevalent in my lessons as these improve our language learning skills as well as the discursive and emotional empathy that assists learning and memory.
Learners will always be supported and guided professionally.My lessons & teaching style
Student-centered: My lessons will include the necessary content that the student needs to succeed in their endeavours. Depending on their learning style, interests and nature, the lesson will be catered to suit them. The content will be interesting, visuals and realia often incorporated, and interactive activities to build confidence and language skills.
The class will begin with and introduction to guide the learner to the topic, then meanings, grammar and vocabulary can be navigated. Then, activities will be introduced to allow the students to explore the topic and the content more freely, as well as in a controlled environment to stretch all areas of thinking and practicing.My teaching material

My daughter had a trial lesson with Lindsey. The teacher kept the child interested with games and engaging tasks. Lindsey is friendly and polite and her pronunciation is excellent. We will be taking more lessons.

Lessons are well organised. And we use lots of additional material during the class like pictures, texts, internet resources and so on. All of that help me to learn vocabulary really fast. I am really enjoying lessons.

Lack of enthusiasm. I noticed many mistakes in my speech and she did not. They just talked like a conversation club and not a lesson with a teacher
