BC认证雅思培训师 IELTS/雅思 Simon - Intro - IELTS - HSK - Business - Conversational courses I have taught over 10,000 lessons on italki, and I am skilled in teaching both kids and adults. Under my approach, many of my students have achieved fluency, and excellent scores in standardized tests like IELTS and HSK. I have also researched and self-created contents for over 500+ daily scenarios, each dialogue is specially designed, so grammar structures are taught naturally through the dialogues, to ensure easy understanding. These topics pretty much cover every possible scenario in life, so you can be sure that you would reach a near native level of vocabulary after learning them. ➡️ Test preparation (IELTS / HSK / TOEFL): Practice on Speaking, Writing, Listening and Reading questions, with feedback and correction, as well as strategies and tips to improve. ➡️ For role-play simulation: We will role play common scenarios after learning sentence structures and vocabulary of a certain topic (Renting an apartment, Job interviews, Traveling etc) ➡️Topic-based sentence-builder practice: (sports, movies, fashion, relationships, arts, culinary, politics, environmental issues, technologies etc)

Hello! I have space in my schedule for a few more students (A2-C2). Request a session soon! I’m a native speaker of English from the state of New York in the USA. I've worked as a teacher and editor/proofreader for over ten years. I've lived and worked in several countries. Most of the time was in countries where Russian is spoken (Eastern Europe and Central Asia), so I understand the Russian language and the cultures of the regions where people speak Russian. I love learning, teaching, and helping others learn and develop. As a teacher, I am optimistic, patient, understanding and try to have a good sense of humor. I also have high expectations and challenge my students to do their best. I teach students (age 12 and up) from pre-intermediate to advanced levels (A2-C2), and students who speak Russian starting from A1 level. My teaching philosophy is student-centered and focused on your goals. From the first lesson, we will focus on your goals, and we will make a plan to help you reach these goals. If you have any questions, send me a message. I have two types of students: regular students and irregular students. Regular students must have a minimum of one lesson a week. They can book lessons anytime, and should book lessons more than a week in the future to make sure they get the time/date they want for the next week. I also take irregular students, but these students can't request lessons more than a week in the future. "The best time to plant a tree (or learn a language) was 20 years ago. The second best time is now." Adapted proverb

IELTS, TOEFL, and General Conversation I was born and raised in the suburbs of New York City. I earned a B.A. in English Literature and Creative Writing from The University of Wisconsin- Madison. For over a decade I worked in the New York Television and Film Industry. My hobbies include watching television and film, reading, cycling, hiking, and traveling. For over a decade I have taught students of all ages and levels. My experience includes, but is not limited to, working as an IELTS teacher in Vietnam, a Conversational English Tutor at The University of Wisconsin- Madison, a New York Public School Substitute Teacher, and a Remedial Grammar teacher at a New York Community College. I believe the student should speak for about 75% of the class time. I genuinely enjoy improving my students' pronunciation. If necessary, I break down the words and syllables to the smallest sounds, so that the students know exactly what they need to improve. I do NOT teach Bu$iness English.

Certified English teacher with over 6 years of experience I have experience with students of all levels and ages, as well as IELTS, TOEFL and Cambridge exam preparation.

On a persona note I'm currently working on my 3rd language so I really understand the challenges of language learning.

Ex - High School Teacher Preps CAE, IELTS and Other Exams | Online Tutor for Adults & Children Hello! Originally from Cambridgeshire in England, my journey has taken me across several countries and industries. My background in instruction began at age 16 in England near my hometown and later expanded to France and Greece. I delivered concise land-based theory and practical simulations before guiding both adults and children through skills on the water. Before moving into education, I resided 16 years in France, where I worked in the maritime industry as a deckhand and later pivoted to marine engineering. Last June I finished a year teaching English IGCSE at an international high school in Bali. The syllabus is based on reading comprehension on various texts and then applying that understanding to execute dedicated writing tasks such as essays, reports, reviews, letters, proposals and more. I have an amazing track record on Italki previously preparing students for IELTS and CAE exams and long term regular bookings for kids classes, business and conversational classes. In my free time I am very regularly at the beach surfing which is my main activity. I'm also into fishing and sailing, and I love to explore new islands in the country when I get a chance to move. I like reading and watching movies. Other interests are personal development, healthy living, business (currently working on a product), and many more. If you are looking for an experienced teacher who combines real-world experience and classroom teaching I am here to help you succeed!
