About Me
italki teacher since Jan 20, 2022Me as a Teacher
Sei Italiano? Fantastico! Dopo aver imparato l'Italiano ho conosciuto tanta gente meravigliosa. Sicuramente avremo tanto di cui parlare, sono molto interessato di imparare fatti sulla tua regione, soprattuto del cibo!
Posso anche auitarti di capire le differenze tra Inglese e Italiano. Per esempio, un fatto interessante: in italiano c'e la parola 'divertente' peró in inglese abbiamo due parole: 'fun' e 'funny'. Tu conosci la differenza? :)
Since my days as a music teacher, I have taught a range of kids and adults from all walks of life.
One of my favourite parts of teaching is the fact that I get to meet so many different kinds of people and help them grow in confidence and ability!My lessons & teaching style
Why do you want to learn English? I know I wanted to learn Italian to speak to people! I bet your goals are similar. The hardest thing to master is speaking: real life conversations with natives.
For this reason I make this the focus of my lessons. I teach only the grammar and vocabulary that is most useful for natural communication. What's more, I teach communication skills. These skills are essential for surviving native conversations. Ever had difficulty understanding a native who speaks fast? Or maybe you want to tell a joke but you can't find the words quick enough? In my lessons we'll focus on problems like these so that you can thrive in any social situation!My teaching material

Brendan is an excellent teacher, he uses different teaching strategies depending on which method is best for you.
He is very patient, funny and easy-going, it is a pleasure to talk with him because he makes you feel relaxed speaking english.
He is a very open minded guy, you can talk with him about everything. If necessary, he uses Italian to help you but he prefers to make you understand by using English, this is a great strategy.
Thanks Brendan for your patience, professionalism and availability!
