About Me
italki teacher since Jan 20, 2022
Hello. My name is Jan. I am a British citizen from Brighton, England. I studied visual arts and worked in galleries and museums for 14 years, where I taught art to adults and children. In 2017, I changed career and started teaching English to people from around the world living in the UK. I love to travel and experience different cultures, cuisines and customs. I now live in Vietnam with my husband. My free time is spent doing creative activities such as painting and drawing, and maintaining my well-being through healthy eating, exercise and alternative therapies.
Me as a Teacher
Kind, polite, and passionate about teaching, I have taught art and English to people of all ages and background for 19 years. I enjoy both conversational English lessons as well as designing courses for students to meet their needs. I use different learning styles and pedagogical methodology to help students succeed in English. Using individual learning plan, my students utilize a variety of learning style and strategies to meet their social, academic and professional English goals. I love seeing my students’ improve their confidence and English language ability as they fulfill their dreams as an English speaker!
My lessons & teaching style
I am experienced at teaching English to adults and children at beginner, intermediate and advance level. My lessons are based on students’ needs; tell me what you want to learn and that’s what I will teach you. I offer single lessons or courses with individual leaning plan for students with specific aims and objective.
Teaching children, I use TPR (gestures), songs, games, story telling and role-play to teach reading, writing, listening and speaking in English, ensuring classes are fun, friendly and creative. Teaching adults, I listen to students’ needs, assess their ability and then design and deliver lesson or courses as per their requests. Don't delay, book a trial lesson with me today!
