About Me
italki teacher since Nov 18, 2021
My name is Mister Mike. I am a native of the North Eastern United States, Southern New Jersey. This is the most popular accent you hear in American movies. I have taught ESL for over 15 years; over 8 in Shanghai, China. My students have won English competitions twice in Shanghai. From ages 3-9 for English basics. Public speaking and teaching over 30 years. Also Business English for International trade both private and corporate groups. I am fluent in Oral Chinese. I can read hanzi intermediately.
Me as a Teacher
Humor and the skillful use of questions. How to make the student feel good is important. For little kids, animated storytelling, with laughter. Character building for them in appreciation of building focus in learning. For adults its relaxed and educational. Appropriate humor with balanced focus, according to the individual. Lessons progress by the students individual pace. Every student progresses at a different pace.
My lessons & teaching style
For the very beginning young child…ages 3-5. Its largely hear and copy. The style must be charged and animated. 5 years of age writing can be added because of brain development. A unique blend of the alphabet is taught with basic oral English foundation. Young children need a 10 minute break if you do an hour or more. After letter understanding comes phonics with my own unique pointers. Oral English for entry into an International Schools is blended into reading…..it alternates. Business English is all about each context and the vocabulary. Cultural understanding and is crucial for communication. I teach many tree talk topics. Euphemism-graceful disagreement are more expensive.

The teacher spoke very seriously, did not forget my feelings on the way, and often asked questions.
