About Me
italki teacher since Nov 29, 2021InterestsWritingTravelFilms & TV SeriesHistoryTech
I am a qualified TEFL/TESOL teacher from a small city in South Africa called East London. The city I am from has an endless history that I'd love to share with my students. I am 23 years old and enjoy both watching and playing sports such as football, rugby and even golf. In my spare time I also enjoy cooking and going to the beach seeing that East London is a coastal city and has more than one beach one can go and enjoy on a hot summers day if they would like to go fishing like I like to do with my friends if the weather on that day is good.Me as a Teacher
I am a still a very young teacher so I feel that puts me at an advantage on how to make my classes all the more fun to learn from because an environment a student feels is safe to make mistakes in is an environment that student can learn the most from. My TEFL/TESOL certificate also has equipped me with being able to use and incorporate things such as TPR and various activities that help in the classroom and guide students to learning more.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons include a lot of interaction between student and teacher because I think that it is important the student feels their input is as much a part of the lesson as mine, the teachers input, is. I am able to prepare lesson plans that focus on areas that I would feel the student needs to focus more on, provide audio recordings that help in areas of punctuation or grammar. I also feel that giving homework assignments is the best way to see what the students' progress is and what exactly to improve on.My teaching material

The experience was very good and I recommend it. I really liked the didactic approach of analysis that we did in a dynamic way to determine the current level and the reinforcement and learning needs that I need. With weekly work and his teaching and support I will achieve it! I will continue with him several days a week.

As always, having classes w/ Zuks is great because while he asks fundamental questions he provide vocabulary by means of tips which helps you to improve your speaking skills.
