Me as a Teacher
I have enjoyed great success as a teacher, both online, and in local schools. Forming wonderful relationships with children of all ages.
I am energetic and enjoy laughing with my students. I believe that if a child enjoys what they are learning, they are much more likely to remember their lesson. This is not to say that my lessons are simply fun and games, learning is paramount.
I am professional, always on time, I have never had a teacher no show.
My lessons & teaching style
With my 20 years of experience, I have learned to be flexible and adaptable. Not all learners are the same, therefore lessons must be made to fit the student.
My classes usually follow a I do, we do, you do format. However, I do not like to be the one always speaking, and encourage students to communicate as much as possible. We must use a language in order to master it, and I offer a safe environment for language exploration.
Lessons are 25-28 minutes long.
*As I teach young children, I do not leave class feedback on the Italki public forum, but prefer to send messages through the message centre.

I can't help but recommend Ms. Debbie to you! She is incredibly patient and extremely kind to children, always able to captivate their attention in class. She is also the most professional and dedicated children's English teacher I have ever seen!

Debbie is a responsible and polite teacher. The lessons are well organized, and materials are interesting. My daughter enjoys the activities, and she said it was so much fun for the class. I can see her improvement in learning new words.
