About Me
italki teacher since Apr 18, 2022Me as a Teacher
I am interested in learning what a student's personal goals are and how they hope to use English in the future and from this develop a work plan to help achieve those goals.
I have an Associate Teachers degree in Speech and Drama and can provide exercises to assist with pronunciation.
From my time working at Embassies I can offer guidance and practice in conversations focused on networking/ building professional relationships.
My classroom is a safe space. There are no stupid questions. Mistakes are an excellent way to learn! I believe providing a relaxed and fun environment is the most productive way to learn.My lessons & teaching style
I offer two types of lessons.
The first is conversational lessons as I believe it is the most natural and helpful way to learn a language. We can talk about whatever topics you like. But if you are not sure what you want to discuss I have plenty of conversation-starter questions and activities. As we converse I will make notes of your areas of improvement for us to discuss later rather than interrupting you.
The second lesson is a more structured, made up of various speech exercises to help with those more difficult to pronounce sounds in the English language. For these lessons I draw on my experience as a Speech and Drama teacher.
Having fun and enjoying the lesson is my priority.My teaching material

Helen is a fantastic teacher. She has helped me a lot with my spoken English by always providing outstanding materials, provoke-thinking topics and instant feedback. Time with her in every session passes quickly and joyfully. I feel fortunate and blessed having found her on italki!
