Let's break the monotony and talk some more as we learn. Karibuni! If you’re looking for a patient teacher who’s in it for the long run, you’re in the right place. I’m a passion-driven language tutor who believes learning is a continuous process of learning, unlearning, and relearning. I love connecting with people and exploring culture, which naturally shapes how I teach. I hold a degree in International Relations (minor in Criminal Justice) and teach on italki part-time out of my love for languages and cultural exchange. I love to humanize the learning process by using day to day examples so that the student is able to relate with the discussions. Since the true goal of learning a language is communication, my classes are lively and interactive, with a focus on speaking and listening skills. However, this does not imply that you do not need to study grammatical rules, or that I will not explain grammar ideas to you in English if necessary. I aim to incorporate issues that are relevant to my students' daily lives. I use my own content, as well as songs and snippets. I feel that humour and consistency are the keys to learning a language. -Organized -Time conscious -Patient -Friendly
