Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 23 Apr 2020Interest topicHistorySportReizen
I have an educational background in history, archaeology and culture, and enthusiastic when discussing these topics. I love traveling and I have visited almost 60 countries. I'm also passionate about martial arts and practice both capoeira and Muay Thai, I help in the organisation of fundraising events and shows. I also teach capoeira aerobics and lecture to schools to promote health and fitness through martial arts.
Food is another hot topic I adore, and I challenge anyone to find a dish that I haven’t tried. I have too many interests to mention in this limited space, I find that I always have at least one thing in common with my students; it provides a great way to connect.Ik als leerkracht
I am an experienced teacher and advocate for education, history and cultural preservation, I'm passionate about promoting education and cultural integration within local communities and educational institutions. I have over 5 years teaching experience whilst living in Asia. I currently live and work in Taiwan, and through my employment I also teach online lessons to students from South Korea, Europe, USA and Thailand. I continue to strive to bring education, history and culture together through my volunteering projects and work commitments.
I teach both kids and adults in all levels of English, however I specialize in cultural diversity, business English, and analytical and critical thinkingMijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I have a relaxed teaching style, I always want my students to feel comfortable, the more comfortable the student the more likely they will understand and learn the language. I use various online resources, along with PDFs of English language workbooks and make sure that I accommodate the student’s needs.Mijn lesmateriaal

Alex is an excellent British English Tutor! We had several English conversational lessons to help brush up on my fluency. And today we had a British history lesson in which I thought that was interesting and informative since I always wanted to know British history and culture and Alex delivered the story in details with the eye-catching Powerpoint slides. Look forward to understanding more about British culture/history and some British expression/phrases elaborated by Alex.

Good first talk with Alex.
He is a good listener and also a good talker, and the class was very free-flowing. I felt very satisfied so, after the class, I booked a pack of lessons with him for the coming weeks.
