About Me
italki teacher since Oct 25, 2021Interest topicReadingTravelFilms & TV Series
I am an English Speaking South African lady. I speak two other languages, Afrikaans and French . I currently work as a video editor and voice-over artist. My hobbies include among other things, reading, outdoor life, watching movies, baking and staying current with global news and current affairs. I really enjoy meeting new people especially from different walks of life and different cultures. I am presently studying in my spare time to get my certification as a TEFL teacher.Me as a Teacher
I am really passionate about teaching people. When teaching English as a second language, you need to have a lot of patience and make the lessons fun and interactive. In my lessons I try to breakaway from the traditional monotonous classroom style setting of being taught.
I bring enthusiasm and passion when dealing with young learners (level A2 and above) and adults who need to learn English whether it be for day to day conversations or even for business purposes. I adapt my lessons to suit each students specific needs, age group, or English ability.My lessons & teaching style
The most important need of any student, is the need to put into practice all the rules of grammar and vocabulary that they have been taught and the only way to do this is to speak as often as possible. So by using broader topics outside of the traditional ESL (English Second Language) classroom topics, I bring in extra vocabulary, phrasal verbs and idioms relevant to the particular theme, thereby making it easier to understand, within the proper context, and by so doing enhancing the students ability to speak English more naturally. I also help students prepare for their IELTS tests. Lessons are adapted to the students particular needs, to make it as easy and as natural to understand.My teaching material
