เกี่ยวกับฉัน
เป็นผู้สอนใน italki ตั้งแต่ 20 Aug 2021Interest topicReadingFoodTravel
I was born and raised in America, but I did graduate study in England and now live here. I have dual US and UK citizenship. My first job many years ago was working at a radio station! Since then, I've received TESOL certification in Edinburgh, and MA degrees from University of Leeds and University College London. I have worked as an English teacher and private tutor in China (Jinan and Shanghai) and in Taiwan (Kaohsiung City) for around six years. I have also worked as a clinical teaching associate and as a clinical trials coordinator in the UK. I have done extensive freelance work in proofreading and copywriting for professional websites and evaluation reports.ฉันในฐานะผู้สอน

My teaching approach is student-centred. I want to know about your language goals so that I can make a lesson package to help you achieve them. Every lesson will have clear aims and objectives so that you know you are making progress. We can:
• focus on a particular skill such as speaking or writing,
• work towards a particular goal such as a presentation, essay, application, or exam (TOEFL or TOEIC),
• review fundamental English grammar and conversation skills,
• help your pronunciation sound more natural,
• and so on!
I'm also happy to offer you additional support if you are already enrolled in an English class and want some one-to-one help with your course material.สื่อการสอนของฉัน

Valerie is a very nice and patient teacher. She answered all my questions clearly. After having 10 classes each in speaking and writing, my IELTS speaking&writing band improves from 6.0 to 7.0. Now I decide to take more classes in conversation and writing for business and academic purposes with Valerie. I believe with her help, I will be able to improve my English a lot before I go study abroad.

This lesson was about writing down the thought after watching a TED talk. Valerie was very nice and patient to correct my composition. Also the TED talk was very helpful for me to think more, which I also appreciate very much. Looking forward the next lesson.
