About Me
italki teacher since Oct 29, 2021Interest topicSports & FitnessMusicPets & Animals
Hello!
My name is Gareth O'Sullivan
I am a 24 year old native English speaker, originally from New York, coming from an Irish family with two younger sisters. Despite being fairly young, I have a lot of life experience, as I have lived in many different places (New York, North Carolina, Ireland, and Prague). Currently, I live in Prague, Czech Republic, and I love it here.
My interests include:
-Sports
-Travel
-Music
-Cooking
-And a lot more!
I am looking forward to speaking with you, to get to know your needs as a student, but also to discuss your hobbies/interests.
Thank you!
(P.S. - Please book an individual lesson before booking a package of lessons, thank you)Me as a Teacher
In early 2021, I obtained a TEFL Certification which included training for online teaching. This prepared me for my first job in the field, which I did for half a year before switching to Italki. I've been teaching on Italki for 3 years now, and I really like this platform. I am passionate about teaching and my lessons are never boring! I have a 5/5 star rating here on Italki, and I work hard to maintain that standard.
Plus I've had thousands of lessons, obtaining fantastic reviews!
''I did my first class and I already felt good energy. The teacher Gareth gave me confidence to speak English, great class, great teacher.'' - Long term student
I am looking forward to helping you!My lessons & teaching style
I tailor my lessons around your needs. In the first lesson, I get to know you and your requirements, and then I can see what you need to work on in future lessons.
My lessons contain a variety of materials and resources including:
-Reading articles + discussion questions
-Speaking about a variety of conversation topics with correction/vocabulary
-Practice tests/quizzes
-And a lot more
In all of my lessons, I have a positive atmosphere with entertaining and engaging topics that will make your experience improving your English enjoyable. From General English lessons to Speaking exam preparation, I have a lesson that suits your goals, and we will work together to reach them.
Thank you!My teaching material

Work Experience

Online English TeacherCambly is an online English learning platform which I taught on for 8 months before joining Italki. I have taught over 1,000 lessons and have had hundreds of students ranging in age and English level from beginner to proficient. This has given me the necessary experience to carry on my teaching career and it has given me a lot confidence in my teaching skills.
2017 - 2019
English TutorI tutored three high school exchange students from Spain in history, geography, math, biology, and physical education. This was my first in-person tutoring experience and it helped me grow as a teacher immensely.

Gareth is great and professional teacher, who can help you not only with improving conversational skills but also with grammar. He helped me to improve IELTS speaking score by 1 point (from 5.5 to 6.5) in just 3 lessons!

Was a very good learning experience. I would love to keep on a long term English learning plan with Gareth. the class was totally different from the classes I used to take in the past. It was efficient and fun. Just 60 mins, I feel my improvement already.

We were a little late. The teacher is patient in listening to my kid and he also asked questions to keep the class ongoing.
