Hi!
I'm Lou. I've been teaching here on ITALKI for 4+ years, but I've been teaching English all over the world for more than a decade.

It's my pleasure to meet new people from all over the world, and my privilege to support your learning journey.Me as a Teacher

ESL TeacherI worked as a volunteer in a village for 2 months without any teaching resources. This has made me very creative. I then spent 12 months teaching a grammar based syllabus which made me knowledgeable in grammar.
2016 - 2017
IELTS InstructorI spent 1 year teaching IELTS to the military in Saudi Arabia. This helped me to develop an expertise in the IELTS test, and exam preparation in general.
2017 - 2018
ESL InstructorI worked teaching adults - a mix of levels. Some 1-1 teaching.
2012 - 2014

2019 - 2020
ESL language Host TutorI hosted students in my city centre apartment, teaching them 1-1 for 15, 20, or 25 hours per week. I also acted as a guide and took them on tours of the city and sorrounding areas.

I have no words to describe Louis. He fulfils everything that Italki proposes in the review. He is professional, reliable, organised, expert, always punctual and motivating.
And I have only had 1 lesson with him!!
I would like to prepare for Business English and I have definitely found my perfect teacher.
Thanks, see you on monday! ^_^
