About Me
italki teacher since Feb 16, 2025InterestsMusicArtTechPets & AnimalsTravel
TESOL-certified English instructor with over two decades of experience, specializing in customized, confidence-focused instruction for learners of all ages. Originally from Toronto, Canada, and currently residing in Mexico, I integrate my passion for travel, cultural exchange, and language acquisition (currently advancing my Spanish proficiency) into engaging, globally-informed lessons. My professional journey has taken me across Central America, Europe, and Asia, enriching my teaching with diverse perspectives. Let’s collaborate to create targeted, dynamic English learning experiences that align with your objectives—inspired by my own multilingual and multicultural adventures.Me as a Teacher
I am a kind and patient English teacher who is TEFL Certified and has over 20 years of teaching experience both in person and online.
I have taught students of all age groups and walks of life. I truly love helping students increase their confidence and reach their goals. My lessons & teaching style
I provide a placement test for students that helps me to diagnose specific areas they need to improve in their English and create a personalized lesson plan ready to address their needs.
During lessons I provide kind and gentle feedback that reinforces what the student is learning.
I feel it’s very important to help students to feel comfortable as they learn. So lessons with me will always be encouraging, fun and supportive. I also strive to offer lessons that are interesting and challenging, adapted to each student.
I use a wide variety of interactive materials in class and provide students with homework so they can remember what they learn and apply it in their daily lives.My teaching material
