About Me
italki teacher since Dec 13, 2022Me as a Teacher
I have a positive attitude toward teaching. I'm very attentive to the student's development, and I can modify the course materials to best meet your language learning goals. I enjoy instructing students of all ages and experience levels.
My goal as a teacher is to help each student develop their own voice and style in their language use. It's important to enjoy yourself and make some mistakes when you learn a new language; both are necessary for your development. The best learning happens when you're having a great time and taking pride in your progress.My lessons & teaching style
Learning a second language should be a fun and stress-free experience. In our first session together, we'll talk about your language goals and work together to formulate a lesson plan. I'll make sure that our discussions are personalized to your needs because I know that every student has their own set of objectives and preferred methods of learning.
As a teacher, I place a strong emphasis on effective communication, and I believe that speaking as much as possible is the best approach to achieving this goal. We will use realistic texts you'll encounter in the real world as discussion starters.My teaching material

Teacher’s pick
I really enjoyed my class with Ellie!!! She is kind and encouraging. She challenged me to read and pronounce immediately and adjusted my words when my accent was off. I did not feel embarrassed to try in her class. Thank you Ellie!

Ellie's teaching material is great, colorful and animated. I actually have something similar, teaching Tagalog learning material that I built with code and is interactive: jetlihong.github.io/italki
In overall, the lesson is well-structured and fun(ny).

I think Tagalog is one of the most difficult languages to learn. I have tried many times before. Ellie is very positive and kind. I think I could learn lot with her support. I was conjugating verbs in the first class.
