About Me
italki teacher since Sep 8, 2011
I am a certified English teacher and have been teaching for almost ten years. Throughout my teaching career I have taught primary to high school students, adult learners, business English, and test preparation (IELTS, TOEIC, TOEFL, etc.).
I have lived in China, Korea, Thailand, and Singapore. I enjoy getting to meet students from all over the world, learning about their culture and helping them reach their language goals. 我教过中国学生,希望我也可以帮助你。
Me as a Teacher
I started my teaching career during my senior year of high school when I taught in a 3rd grade classroom. In university I tutored exchange students in English, and have even tutored children in piano. Since then I've spent almost 5 years teaching in different countries.
As much as I like teaching languages I also enjoy learning languages. This helps me see things from your perspective and understand how to most effectively help you reach your goals.
My lessons & teaching style
Our lessons will be focused around what you want to learn. We will use news & magazine articles, text documents, images, graphs, and so on to help you speak speak English and enjoy learning.
I'm easy going and like to have fun with my students while helping you get the results you want.

Teacher’s pick
My son is 5 years old and has been learning to read with Matt for three months. His reading has changed a lot, and his vocabulary has also increased. He is very interested in the class. Matt is a patient and loving person to his children, and my son likes him very much.
