About Me
italki teacher since Apr 11, 2022Me as a Teacher
I love having conversations with my students on different topics to learn about them and their interests and culture. I also feel discussion led lessons really help students overcome their barriers in learning English and help them feel comfortable in using this new language in real life settings. My goal is to help you feel English become a natural part of communication. I specialize in working with elementary to intermediate students, as that is where I have the most experience and am able to explain grammar in very simple and understandable ways.My lessons & teaching style
I have two styles I usually go with. I prefer conversation led lessons, which I facilitate the dialogue with vocabulary and grammar previously studied, as conversation is the best way to make English speaking natural. The other method, and more common with students from beginner to intermediate is using a great instruction book called "English File." It's full of grammar and vocabulary with chances for application. I have seen much success in using this book with my adult students quickly and naturally learn English.My teaching material
