Let me tell you a little bit about me. I am from Somerset, which is in the south-west of England. It is a beautiful area, and I love walking, running, cycling and camping in the countryside when I am there. I also love spending time in different countries, and I have spent the past six months in India, studying yoga. Nature and looking after the environment is very important to me, and I enjoy working in gardens and growing vegetables. Finally, I really enjoy reading - actually, reading is one of my favourite things to do! Hopefully, we will have lots to talk about :)

Tôi với tư cách là giáo viên
I have over 10 years experience as a professional English teacher and have taught English at all levels, to both children and adults. I have also taught preparation courses for IELTS and Cambridge PET, KET, FCE & CAE. I have worked as a teacher in Oman, the UAE, Japan, Spain and the UK.
I'm an extremely patient teacher. I focus my teaching on getting my students to speak as much as possible and look to develop their fluency. However, I also incorporate grammar into my lessons to ensure that my students understand the grammar rules and feel confident when speaking. My goal is for you to become a proficient English speaker, however I always tailor my goals depending on my students needs.
Phong cách dạy & bài học của tôi
My lessons on italki will be conversation based. We will choose a topic, and using a variety of materials we will have a relaxed conversation. During the lesson, I will introduce new vocabulary, and we will explore grammar that comes up. I will tell you the most important mistakes that you make when speaking English, and I will help you to correct your errors. To support our discussion, I enjoy using pictures, stories, articles, video clips, TED talks, and even music. Depending on your needs, I also like to include pronunciation activities and games in our lessons.
