My name is Ian, I live in County Down and I have been teaching languages professionally since 1999. I have recently accepted a scholarship to study towards a PhD in education and so I'm taking a break from school, but it is important to me to keep teaching and I am excited about using iTalki as a teaching platform - I have been using iTalki as a learner to learn both Arabic and French.
Ik als leerkracht
Over two decades, I have taught at every level: mostly with 11 - 18 year-olds within the British educational system, but also in primary schools (I have worked with age 8+) and supporting university students, and trainee teachers. I also give night classes and intensive day/weekend courses for adults. I have never stopped learning, and I believe that my continuing engagement with learning languages means that I never forget the difficulties which learners encounter. I am confident in my ability to help you come to grips with aspects of your target language which native speakers can find difficult to explain.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My "Speaking Irish" series on YouTube has been very popular, and I find that the questioning/spaced repetition technique can build speaking confidence very quickly. A video series on its own will never be enough, so my lessons will comprise a wide range of techniques depending on your specific needs. Depending on your language and stage, I may recommend a text book which you can work on with in between lessons. For students preparing for exams, I will recommend past papers for you to practise with.

Great first lesson! Ian is a very experienced teacher and extremely knowledgable. He is deeply rooted in the language and can clearly explain even the most intricate details of Irish grammar and idiomatic phrases. I highly recommend him.

Ian was very supportive and friendly. He clearly is a talented teacher and has a great grasp of the Irish language. Would highly recommend to learners of all levels.
