About Me
italki teacher since Nov 2, 2021Me as a Teacher
I am great at explaining things to people. I am extremely patient. I have the ability to laugh at myself. I like to see the best in people and have a very optimistic approach. If you are looking for a relaxed, and laid-back, yet organized tutor, please book your trial with me.My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style can best be described as interactive, supportive, and transparent. I encourage my students to have a voice in the classroom, ask questions when they come up, and participate actively in all conversations regardless of their level of confidence.My teaching material
- Quizzes
- Audio files
- Flashcards
- Image files

I met Essy for fist time and I can say: she is a fantastic teacher, spoke on easy way. We had a great class and conversation as well. It was a shame, the time has run out so fast.

It was my first trial in Italki, and Essy has been very pleasant. She has given some good tips to me, and she has been showing a smile throughout the class, thank you very much!
