About Me
italki teacher since Feb 10, 2015Me as a Teacher
Reaching the highest level of competency in language usage is a very different challenge to your first steps, which is why I specialise in advanced English. I have a degree from the University of Cambridge in English, as well as a CELTA certificate and master's degree in English literature.
I have been teaching high-level English skills online for several years and have the experience, knowledge and empathy necessary to make sure you reach your goals the way you want to. I believe that the hardest step to take as a language learner is to see yourself on a level playing field as native speakers, which is why my lessons focus on the types of materials educated native speakers enjoy.My lessons & teaching style
My sessions are always 100% adapted to your needs. No matter what your goal is or how difficult it might be to reach, I can work with you every step of the way until you pass your exam, speak like a native, understand the book, have the best possible application or anything else.
I find that language learning is too often separated from engagement in genuinely interesting topics. In my lessons, we can use relevant materials to discuss culture, philosophy, politics, science and much more to make sure you look forward to the next stimulating conversation instead of dreading the next grammar critique! That way, improving your grammar and everything else in your expression will come naturally.My teaching material

It is easy if a teacher can give you a good lesson, but it is not easy if he can deliver good lessons all the time, Kevin is the one who can give you perfect lessons all the time. Thank you Kevin.

Really great experience to work with Kevin. He is very professional and gave many valuable suggestions for my work. He did many editions in the text, and at the same time sent me highlights to discuss in the email which is impressive. Thank you Kevin.

Kevin is the most reliable, responsible, intelligent teacher that I’ve ever met on italki. It’s a pity that he is leaving. But in the meantime, it’s good for him to find a better job. I am so happy for him. Hopefully he will enjoy his new job and come back to italki once in a while. Keep in touch.
