About Me
italki teacher since May 9, 2022Interest topicArtFilms & TV SeriesFashion & BeautyTravelPets & Animals
Hello, my name is Haley and I am an English teacher on italki. I was born and raised in the United States, more specifically in the North-Eastern state of Maine. Although many Mainers do have a distinctive accent, I speak with a pretty standard dialect of English.
I love traveling and feel that language learning is a wonderful tool that helps people connect with others. In college, I majored in Anthropology, and minored in International Affairs, French, and Gender Studies. This course of education helped me learn more about the world and my place in it, and made me even more eager to meet new people from different cultures, and to travel to new places to experience new things!Me as a Teacher
I have plenty of experience teaching and tutoring English, as I have been tutoring French students in English since my time living in France in 2020. Currently, I am in Spain working for the Comunidad de Madrid Ministry of Education helping high school students improve their English.
I am also certified in TEFL/TESOL. With a 120 hour TEFL course, I learned the best techniques to teach English as a foreign language.
As a result of my experience in learning languages, I understand how difficult it can be to learn a new language. I would love to play a supportive and encouraging role in helping you reach your language goals by providing a positive, judgement free learning environment.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are tailored to fit each student’s needs, whether they are just starting to learn English, or they have already achieved near fluency. Our first lesson will be used to get to know each other a bit, and for me to determine your level and learn about your language goals. From there, we will determine what kind of lessons will be the most helpful for you. I recognize that everyone learns differently, and so I want our lessons to be as collaborative as possible so you can learn in a way that works for you. Depending on the students needs, sometimes lessons will have more structure, while sometimes we can just have a conversation to practice fluency and confidence in speaking English.My teaching material

Work Experience
2020 - 2022
Tutor IndependentI have been tutoring French students in English since 2020, and in doing so I have honed my teaching skills. Furthermore, since the tutoring has been mostly over Skype, I have had plenty of practice preparing me for an online teaching position with italki.
2022 - 2022
Auxiliar de Conversación Comunidad de MadridAs an auxiliar de conversación, I spend my weekdays working with Spanish high school students to help them improve their English. In class, I present English grammar and vocabulary to students through fun games and activities and talk to students in English to help them gain confidence and competence in speaking and understanding English as spoken by a native speaker.
