About Me
italki teacher since Jun 25, 2023Interest topicHistoryMedical & HealthcareTech
I have had the privilege of teaching English for the past 15 years, which has been a fulfilling vocation that has given me numerous rewarding experiences. For the last nine years, I have been teaching online, and I also spent four wonderful years teaching face-to-face in Istanbul, Turkey, and Seoul, Korea. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Education and a Maryland teacher’s certification for
My daily life outside of work includes spending time with my wife and our lovely dog, Sheila. Having an energetic dog forces me to go for plenty of walks and hikes all around Chiang Mai.
I've visited several Asian and European countries and love to learn about other cultures and perspectives on the world.Me as a Teacher
My teaching approach is centered around you, the student. I spend time to understand your particular needs and focus on those requirements for each lesson. I will assess your level and identify any bad habits that may be hindering your progress. My teaching philosophy emphasizes active engagement through conversation, with error correction provided as necessary. I have several years of experience teaching and coaching English learners of various backgrounds and abilities, and I encourage you to combine different options to achieve the best results.My lessons & teaching style
I am currently offering conversational English classes. During these classes, we will practice reading, speaking, and listening by utilizing news articles or any text of your choosing. If you prefer real-life conversation practice, I will provide a situation for us to role-play. This will give you experience using a variety of vocabulary, expressions, and grammatical structures to communicate ideas in real-world scenarios. Please keep in mind that I am open to any approach you prefer. I am flexible and willing to tailor our sessions to best suit your needs.My teaching material
