Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 3 Sep 2012InterestsWritingMedical & HealthcareHistoryFilms & TV SeriesPets & Animals
If you like being a part of an English-learning team in which we both take responsibility for your learning, then I'm the teacher for you! I've taught ESL for many years - here on italki and abroad.
I love freelance writing and I've been published in major American publications including: Cosmopolitan, Ladies' Home Journal, Family Circle, the Washington Post, the Boston Globe and many others.
Some things we may have in common:
1. I'm passionate about ancient Egypt and teach classes online to
homeschooled children. I'll even teach an AE class on italki.
2. I also have two daughters and three grandsons. One family lives in
Boston; the other in San Francisco. And I miss them.Ik als leerkracht
I have a CELTA certification issued by Cambridge University, England.
If you're an intermediate, advanced or proficient student who likes to interact with your tutor, then we'll get along great. When students take charge of their lessons, I'm really impressed. And please don't apologize for making mistakes, especially to a teacher like me. I've made mistakes while teaching, and I've learned to accept it and realize that all of us make mistakes--even native speakers.
When you enjoy yourself while you're learning English, I'm happy. Students have told me that I'm funny, patient and supportive, and I plan to live up to these expectations.
Got questions during or after class? Good for you!Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
This is not a course on creative writing in English, No, the writing we practice here is for your English-speaking life. I'll help you write effective emails to employers, friends, bosses, among others. You'll also learn to write essays for English tests, such as the IELTS, TOEFL - and resumes and applications for jobs or school.
Incidentally, I never use textbooks during lessons except when requested. Instead, I use "authentic material" like articles from newspapers and magazines, YouTube videos, photography, and even objects.
Homework? Expect it! I'll assign you to write on certain topics or subjects of your own choosing.
So, please get in touch! I look forward to meeting you.Mijn lesmateriaal
