I have been an Italki tutor since January 2012, and I have to say that I have met a lot of great people from all over the world since I started doing informal tutoring. Each and every student I talk to and exchange conversation with has enriched my understanding of where people come from and about their lives. It is very rewarding. Students have contacted me from Asia, Europe, South America, Canada and even the US!

I am familiar with teaching phonics, reading and a speaking curriculum. As you can see, I've had some experience teaching english overseas, conversational practice and am TESOL certified. I look forward to helping you with any needs requested and tutoring one on one. Thank you!

I will explain that the reason for the disputed sessions on my rating is a combination of students not showing as requested, or having to reschedule at the last minute, as well as me not showing up on time or rescheduling at the last minute, and not showing up at all. I apologize for this rating if you wonder why. I wanted to be completely honest. I do my best to reschedule sessions, am pretty flexible and do my best to return credits if this occurs.

I would like to make a note that I have students requesting me to talk with them for language exchange or without pay. I would like to direct students who are looking for free resources to utilize the Italki website. There are many great teachers who charge with a lower rate than myself, numerous groups looking available for free english practice/conversation, and many people looking for language exchange in your language. I advise you to utilize and look at these options as another way to get a free lesson to help you. I appreciate you contacting me to help you specifically, but unfortunately, I can not just freely talk with people. I hope you understand and wish you all the best
