About Me
italki teacher since Feb 9, 2017
I'm a translator and English teacher based in Philadelphia, USA. I'm passionate about languages, and my favorite part of teaching online is being able to meet people from all walks of life, from all over the world.
Me as a Teacher
I often provide materials for students to review (fun, authentic material like videos or podcasts) so that we can discuss them in our lesson. I also try to always cater my lessons to the needs and interests of the students.
Please note that I only teach adults.
My lessons & teaching style
My style is a mixture of casual and professional, and I like to maintain a relaxed atmosphere in my lessons. I love hearing people's stories, and I find that story-telling is one of the best ways to practice a language!

Incredible teacher, I strongly recommend it! Thomas is very patient and he has a great general knowledge, which made our conversation very enjoyable (even if my English wasn't very good). Thank you so much for the class, and see you next time.

Thank you for teaching me new idioms and for telling me a little bit more about the american culture. You have a very clear accent and a great teaching method. I will certainly schedule more classes :)
