About Me
italki teacher since Oct 15, 2021
Hi, my name is Clayton. I am 24 years old and I am from South Africa. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Visual art from the University of KwaZulu-Natal, and a Honours Degree in 2D Experimental animation. I work as a freelance artist, I enjoy working in both traditional and digital mediums. My hobbies include ridding horses and motorbikes, I enjoy keeping active and on weekends I like to skateboard. I grew up on a farm, so I love animals. I have a little dog called Dash, he will sometimes appear in our classes for a brief moment to say "hello". I spent the last two years tutoring university students within their studies. I enjoy talking with people and learning about their countries and cultures.

Me as a Teacher
I am patient and well mannered, I am able to connect with a student on the level in which they require. I enjoy having fun with my students and having a good laugh with them, as I feel that we have to have an enjoyable experience while we learn together. The most important aspect in my class is for the student to feel comfortable. When it comes to my teaching approach, I tailor it to my students needs, as I feel that everyone is different, therefore we all learn in different ways.
My lessons & teaching style
I believe that having a conversation with someone is the best way to improve language skills. By this the student can practice with me, the native speaker, and obtain first hand experience in the way in which you pronounce words, and the usage of these words in sentences. One can expect to have interesting conversations, about a variety of topics, in which the engagement of the student is essential, as anything they wish to talk about is important, as the student must feel comfortable at all times, this encouraging the student to speak more, and intern improving there language skills.

Clayton is quite polite and broad-minded.If looking for a language partner, he is a pretty good one. He can share any to you.I like this lesson.Even this is my first lesson with him but we can talk in a simple way. Chilled and interactive.
His accent is originally British. Very hard for me but worth learning that accent. Look forward to see in next class.
