Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 23. Jan 2020
Hi, I’m Mike, and I’m a professional linguist involved in training others in linguistics, research and consultancy. I have a PhD in Linguistics, and I’ve taught all sorts of courses in linguistics in several countries, as well as English courses. I’m probably more suitable for high-level learners of English, e.g. in academic writing.
Ich als Lehrkraft
Specialities: analysis of where you need to grow, pronunciation, writing, linguistics.
If you’re looking for someone who can explain what’s going on with English grammar and linguistics at a high level, I’m your guy – I can particularly help you master sounds that you find difficult to produce, as I’ve taught phonetics. I should be able to help with most linguistic issues.
I also speak French, German, Spanish, and Arabic (my Tunisian is better than my Standard Arabic) to a high standard, so can help explain things especially well if you are from one of those language backgrounds, using that language when that is helpful.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I will first establish what it is you want and need help with most (especially pronunciation - phonetics; grammar; linguistics; conversation practice), and will structure things to help you most.
Michael provided me an amazing direction for advanced English learning. I started understanding better both English Grammar and pronouncation. It is a miracle to find a teacher of this level on Italki. Highly recommended for everyone who want to learn English deeper.

The lesson with Michael was superb! He was able to immediately point out the issues with the way that I speak and provide useful advice to address them. Michael is extremely nice, very patient, encouraging, and he made me feel very comfortable during our lesson. I will definitely be schedulling another lesson soon!
