Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 10. Dec 2018
My name is John. I'm from The South of the USA.
*Yo también hablo español, pero no me permiten poner más lenguas en mi perfil.*
Many people would describe me as a laid back and funny guy. I work hard but don't make things too serious. I believe in following a happy medium in all things: making classes not too lax and not too strict, being friendly while maintaining professionality, etc.
Ich als Lehrkraft
As a teacher, I enjoy helping YOU to reach your goals in English, Mandarin, Korean or Yakut. I do my best to help Y'ALL have fun in the process too!
If any of y'all got questions or would like to schedule a time that is not shown on my calendar, feel free to send me a message and ask!
*All students can ask me questions about the language they are learning in a message outside of class and I will answer as soon as I'm able.*
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My lessons are adaptable while efficient. I encourage the students to let me know their goals,their approximate level, and their preferred learning methods (if any). For students new to learning another language, I am happy to coach in learning methods and building confidence.
I offer two types of classes:
1. Chinese, English, Korean, or Yakut lessons.
*These are formal lessons of two types*
(1) Lessons whose materials I create.
(2) Lessons where we use an existing curriculum upon request.
(With both types of formal lessons, I can give and grade homework if requested.)
2. Chinese, English, or Korean Conversation practice.
These are Guided Conversation Practice.
The instructor was knowledgeable, patient, and tailored the lesson to my learning style. The materials provided were comprehensive, making the learning process enjoyable and effective. I feel confident in my progress and look forward to continuing my journey in mastering the Yakut language. Highly recommended!
I give John my highest recommendation for Mandarin lessons! Every session he continues to impress with his customized learning materials and highly effective teaching methods. He gets into specific ways to improve pronunciation and really provides key phrases that I will use in real-life situations. I look forward to our lessons each week and recently renewed for an additional package!

I wanted to be lazy and just listen to John talk this lesson but he wanted me to remember words and repeat things back to him, which made the lesson worth the time because I actually was remembering words. And when I had questions, he always provided more information and cleared up my confusion. He's always a great teacher, even when I'm tired or ornery.

It was great to see examples of how the vowels are used in common words. I especially struggled with e'y and e'i, but John showed me the difference and now I finally understand how these make different sounds and how to spell the words I was having trouble with.

John does a great job of helping me learn how to pronounce the Yakut vowel sounds! And I like that he uses more than one source for study. We used a guide he had prepared and videos if native speakers. I'm excited to keep learning!
