About Me
italki teacher since Aug 13, 2023InterestsMusicTravelFoodReadingArt
Hello! I’m Melanie, a certified TEFL & TEYL teacher passionate about making English learning fun and practical for students of all ages. My background in civil engineering (Zhejiang A&F University, China) taught me how to break down complex ideas—just like I do in my student-centered lessons! When I’m not teaching, I love art and reading, which inspire my creative approach to language. Let’s turn your goals into reality—one engaging lesson at a time!Me as a Teacher
I’m someone who thrives on energy, enthusiasm, and interaction. I absolutely love being around learners—guiding them, and celebrating their discoveries along the way. With patience and a positive attitude, I tailor each lesson to suit individual needs while keeping things fun and dynamic.
As a flexible and curious person, I’m always diving into new ideas to level up both my life and my teaching toolkit. So why not join me on this journey? Let’s learn, laugh, and grow together—your adventure starts here! My lessons & teaching style
My approach to teaching focuses on you, the students, rather than on me as the instructor. I firmly believe that when you are able to connect the material to your everyday lives, it becomes more meaningful and is easier to retain. For this reason, I make every effort to ensure that our lessons are relevant to real-world situations and are aligned with your personal goals in mind.My teaching material
