Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 29. Apr 2019
Hello!
I’m an American Linguistics student who studied in Los Angeles and Paris who loves learning and teaching languages!
I have studied French, Spanish, Chinese, and Arabic, so I understand how difficult it can be to learn a new language. I have lived in LA, Switzerland, Paris, and Mexico. I've traveled to different European countries and enjoy communicating with people from different cultures. I believe that when we travel and learn about new cultures, we become more well-rounded people.
Me as a teacher is me as a learner. I like to try things, methods, and resources during lessons, and find what works best for the student, just as I do in my own language study.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have been living in Paris for more than three years in total. I currently teach English to French children in middle school and high school and have taught French to newly arrived refugees.
I am doing a master's program in Linguistics and Computer Science at a university here too.
Before I taught kindergarten in Los Angeles and tutored students throughout high school. I have a TESOL certification to teach and have been on italki for about five years.
I am very patient and will encourage you to speak, I find that it is the best way to learn. You can learn anything you want with practice and I hope you will consider me to help you reach your language goals; we'll laugh and learn together!
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I have used Italki to practice Spanish and Chinese and I find that informal conversation has helped me the most! I know that it can be scary, especially the first lesson, but it gets easier after that!
In the conversation lessons, we will speak about various topics depending on your level, but some general ones are traveling, films, and music. We can have debates, practice job interviews, slang, or really anything you are interested in!
I can be a casual speaking partner with a low-pressure, non-judgmental, and informal nature or, if you prefer, we can have more structured and prepared lessons where we look at your weaknesses in English or in French and work to improve them.

🗣 Conversation Practice With Corrections (All levels)
Jordan is a really nice person and it's easy to talk with her. Aside of that she speaks the languages that I'm learning, which makes the communication easier to me, she's a great teacher. I'm certainly going to book a lot of more classes with her.

It was a wonderful experience. I hadn't taken English classes in years and Jourdan made me feel super comfortable and her corrections are extremely timely.
Jourdan, no sé cómo hiciste para entender todo lo que intenté decir xd
Thank you and see you soon! :)

The lesson fitted my needs in terms of being able to practice speaking French, however the audio was not always good - I'm not sure if it was partly technical or just the pitch of our voices - and I had to ask for clarification several times to understand what was said.
