نبذة عني
معلّم في آيتاكي منذ 2 Sep 2016
I use my specialized training (Master's Degree in Communication Disorders) to identify trouble areas in your speech to help you become more understandable when you speak English.
عني كمعلّم
I use my training when listening to your speech to see where it deviates from ideal pronunciation. I help you to listen to yourself, and help you figure out how to make the sounds that are difficult for you. I am compassionate (I know it's not easy!) and also have a great sense of humor so that lessons are low-stress and actually fun.
دروسي وأسلوب تدريسي
Most of my students are high-intermediate to advanced, so we often work at a conversational level, talking about a wide range of topics to make sure you are confident in any conversation. I use readings frequently, which are tailored to your level and interests. If needed, we do basic pronunciation exercises with lots of repetition to practice target sounds.

Melinda is a great person and the best teacher and she has such a great personality that she makes you feel comfortable at all times even when you don’t know how to say something or pronounce words. After more than 100 lessons with her I can say that she has given me complete confidence to speak english with anyone.

We first talked about current affairs, then we practiced pronunciation with a work by Dr Seuss. We ended the lesson with a discussion with storywriting and mythologies. Love it!

We talked about urban legends first then read a song by Bob Dylan. A very great lesson as usual. Melinda is a very attentive and supportive teacher!

We first discussed the news and then role-played in an absurdist play. It was a very fun and interactive lesson!
