Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 20. Apr 2018
Thema von InteresseLesenReisenWissenschaftFinanzenUmwelt & Natur
I am currently doing a Master's degree in Industrial and Organisational Psychology. I love learning about other people, nationalities, cultures and religions. Sitting down and talking to someone and getting to know them is one of my favourite things to do, because it shows how even though we seem different on the outside or come from different backgrounds, at the end of the day we all share the same emotions and frustrations, and I think that that is a beautiful thing. I have a variety of interests, including music, movies and TV shows, nature, museums, reading, science, technology, food, travelling and animals.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have been teaching on italki since April 2018 and I am TEFL certified. I am also able to coach you in preparation for the IELTS exam and have had many students go on to achieve their desired scores.
I have always enjoyed teaching others and, because everyone learns differently, I have always found it a fun challenge to work out how to explain the same concept to different people. I can assist you with the following:
Conversational English
Business English
Academic English
IELTS preparation
Proofreading
Grammar
Vocabulary
Reading and comprehension
Writing
Structured lessons from beginner to advanced
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My teaching philosophy is that everyone learns at their own pace - what works for one person may not work for another. I strive to tailor lessons to my students' interests and learning styles. All teaching material will be tailored to your needs so please allow me some time to create and locate it for you. I believe that language learning and development of conversational skills takes time, patience, and practice. I am very friendly and always give others plenty of time to talk - there is no rush in my lessons. I have many interests and enjoy hearing about the interests of others, so we will always have something to talk about.

Conversational English - NEW students after 1 February 2025
I am very lucky to have found Melissa as my teacher! I have been a student of italki for several years now and have had many teachers. Melissa is definitely one of the very best! She's very knowledgeable, adapts exactly to my language level, is always well prepared, always has good questions and exercises and the audio and video quality is top too. Most importantly, it is a real pleasure to learn English with Melissa! Thank you Melissa!
