Hi Everyone!
I am a 33 year old English teacher from the Northern Ireland who specialises in IELTS, and I love helping students pass their exams!
I'm also a language learner, and I love to help students speak more naturally and reduce their mistakes! (I'll be very active in doing this :) )
Aside from exam preparation, talk to me about anything! I love sports, art, business, philosophy, videography, science, politics, media, travel, culture, nutrition.. and just about everything else!Ich als Lehrkraft
As a teacher I would say that I am social, objective and caring. I love to make the learning process fun and enjoyable!
Social: I try to shape it like a social meeting where the student has opportunities to speak, question, observe, discover, grow and express. As a language-learner myself, I know that it is a journey to become fluent and to attain a high level and I most certainly choose to make it a pleasant ride!
Objective: I always ask my students what they want to learn or focus on so that we are fulfilling goals and achieving targets. Why waste time? Let's have fun but let's also get better!
Caring: I really care about my students and really want that they achieve their goals.Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
-My lessons are customized and focus on exactly what the student wants to focus on.
-My lessons are goal-orientated. We set goals in the class of what we want to achieve and we go and take the necessary steps towards realizing those goals.
-My lessons are feedback-heavy. I give lots of feedback for each student. Feedback makes us better.
I teach both IELTS Academic and IELTS General. This includes:
-Writing Task 1(General& Academic)
-Writing Task 2
-Speaking Part (1-3)
-Listening
-Reading (Academic & General)
A typical lesson would involve:
1) Asking the student what they want to focus on.
2) Showing the student how to achieve their set goals.
3) Practicing through tests & feedback.Mein Unterrichtsmaterial

Another great lesson with Craig. Due to work commitments, I was unable to take lessons for a while, but it was really easy to get involved right from the start. I‘m already looking forward to the next lesson.

Craig really helps me with new vocabulary on the topic that I like. He helps me not only to learn vocabulary word by word but how to put that into sentences.
He gives me feedbacks and I feel very comfortable talking with him.

I had a great lesson with Craig! We discussed several British phrases and he explained everything very clearly and in detail. His explanations were easy to follow and I appreciated how he used real-life examples to help me understand it. The lesson was both informative and enjoyable. Highly recommended!
