About Me
italki teacher since Jan 19, 2022Interest topicArtEnvironment & NatureTravelHistoryFood
~~~ Kindly note: I only teach adults here, NOT children ~~~
My name is Katya and I was born and raised in California in the United States, so I speak with a west coast American accent.
I have a Master's degree in English with an emphasis in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.
I currently work abroad as a preschool teacher in Canada, but I am passionate about teaching English to adults so am very excited to work with you here on Italki!
I enjoy cooking, dancing and trying to learn French, Ukrainian, Spanish and Arabic :)Me as a Teacher
I have 7 years of experience teaching English learners of different ages and levels. I love to teach academic English to university students. My activities support your grammar and vocabulary skills for essay writing. I am comfortable teaching academic English (FOR ADULTS) in the fields of:
1.) Anthropology & Art History
2.) English Composition & Literature
3.) Child development & Education Studies
I am also happy to work with you on basic English conversation :)
¡Entiendo español básico y estoy feliz de hablar español en nuestras lecciones si necesitas ayuda o si es tu primera lección de inglés!My lessons & teaching style
After meeting you in our trial lesson, I can create lessons for your specific needs.
In each lesson, I include emphasis on listening, speaking, reading and writing.
I like to talk about food & cooking and enjoy when my students tell me about the best foods from their country!
I use fun authentic activities such as:
1.) YouTube vlogs
2.) Cooking recipes
3.) Personal stories
4.) Newspapers
5.) Poetry
6.) TheatreMy teaching material
