About Me
italki teacher since Oct 13, 2021Interest topicArtScienceEnvironment & NatureMusicHistory
Hi, my name is Luke Trenwith. Originally from New Zealand, I now reside in Salamanca in Spain. I hold a Master's in Political Philosophy as well as a Cambridge English Level 5 Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (CELTA). I have lived in Salamanca for three and a half years where I am learning Spanish as well as teaching English. I have taught English in a number of different work environments - for instance, taking conversational classes in the public library, teaching individual students as well as teaching in an Academy.Me as a Teacher
I like to teach in a relaxed atmosphere and build a relationship of trust and respect with my students. I have excellent people skills, thus I usually connect well with students. In addition, I am very patient with students and I am good at fostering confidence so that students often feel less 'overwhelmed' by the process of learning English.My lessons & teaching style
As per my video, my style is relaxed and non-judgmental. I try to understand how students learn and then adapt my classes to their needs (within a practical dimension). Furthermore, I often (but not always) focus on casual learning by teaching grammar, vocabulary etc. utilising text/speech and so forth. Should I identify a problem area, I will then drill down giving instruction where necessary. In my experience, it seems to me that learning comprehension is more rapid and satisfying when there is some context to the material.My teaching material

thank you for teaching me about etiquette.
what I have learned in this lesson is more important than what I have learned in a month of high school study.

Luke is a very helpful teacher who gave me a lot of useful advice for my interview. He collected questions and reading material for my lesson and kept following up. Thanks to his help, I passed the interview and now have a full-time job with a work visa!! Highly recommended :D

It's my second lesson with Luke and everything is excellent. He is patiently willing to listen and fix my language mistakes as well as the answers for the interview. Luke is funny and I would love to see him again XD.
