About Me
italki teacher since Jan 17, 2022
Studying languages and helping other people learn languages are some of my favorite things to do. I have many years of experience in both. I spent a year and half teaching English in Taiwan and I loved many things about it. I, also, have kept teaching, in my free time, in the last ten years, living in India and Nepal. I am always learning bits and pieces of new languages; and I am almost always the foreigner. Traveling, meeting people, and helping friends has been wonderful. In my free time, I enjoy meditation, studying philosophy, and translating texts. I also love nature, animals, and any new knowledge.
Me as a Teacher
I have experience both with older and younger learners, and am happy to teach at either level. My video is aimed to older learners, and that is what I expect mostly to be teaching. Still, I also have really enjoyed teaching younger learners, and I've been told I am quite good at it. I work to be patient and to try to make extra effort to learn my students needs and design lessons that are good for them and their learning style.
My lessons & teaching style
Classes can change depending on the student's desires. Please communicate your interests, and we will try to make classes that are really helpful for you. Generally, speaking practice and grammar is what I have focused on as a student with my teachers, and I find that to be very helpful. Also, using articles, movies, and other material can be very helpful for learning, as well. These are really good for learning spoken language and finding new vocabulary. Similarly, I am a skilled writer and I enjoy teaching writing. With younger learners, games, songs, and activities are my main ways of teaching.
