About Me
italki teacher since Nov 22, 2011
Interest topicFilms & TV SeriesTechBusiness & Finance
I have empowered many determined students to achieve challenging goals, such as becoming Chevening scholars, scoring band 8 in IELTS, or landing a dream job.
With a CELTA certificate from Cambridge University and over 12 years of teaching experience, I have taught more than 12,000 language lessons.
I used to be an engineer, and I have experience in management, but my passion for languages led me to become a professional language teacher.
I am currently studying for a diploma in English teaching (DELTA) from Cambridge University and I intend to become an IELTS in the next two years.
My long-term goal is doing a PhD in embodied cognitive science focusing on language and emotions.
Me as a Teacher
I help my students improve their English by focusing on speaking skills, effective communication and language awareness.
I speak English, French and Arabic fluently, and I am learning German, so I fully understand the challenges of language learning.
I am an avid reader and a cinephile, so I love discussing books and films. I also have some creative tendencies and I am writing my first novel. As a result, I never run out of ideas for new discussion topics during lessons.
My lessons & teaching style
I teach speaking skills, general English and exam preparation courses (IELTS, CPE, CAE, FCE, PET and KET). Moreover, I teach academic, business, professional and technical English based on my experience in a range of different fields.
I usually design my lessons using online resources, but I also use coursebooks published by Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press and other ELT publishers. Additionally, I design lessons from scratch when needed.
