About Me
italki teacher since May 28, 2023Interest topicHistoryFoodWriting
My name is Rakeb Debalkew. I am a 30 years old Ethiopian language enthusiast. I was born and raised here in Ethiopia, Addis Ababa. Amharic is my first language and my Native. I was raised in a democratic and free family that let me reflect my own color and identity. I see my parents and siblings in me, and they are the shiniest part of my identity. If any one asks me to answer the question "Who are you?" beyond my name, I would say that I am my family. I am all the wonderful teachers I had, all the friends I embarked on. I am confident, I am courageous, I am enthusiastic and I am bold and forward. There is not a single thing I regret and I love that about myself. I truly value what I have!Me as a Teacher
I was raised in a family of teachers, both my Father and Mother were teachers. Some say that teaching is in my blood. On the first two to three years of my life after graduating from university, the first profession I have embarked on was teaching Spoken English. I remember my first class, it should have been terrifying but genuinely speaking my first class seemed like my hundredth. I stepped in a took control of the class room that is filled with students that were twice my age. I think nothing can better explain what I am like as a teacher than this first class story. I believe that God has given me a golden talent on the are of teaching. It is my true ambition, it is what I am!My lessons & teaching style
I intend on making my Amharic lessons as interactive as possible. But the beginning shall be a bit strict and focused so that my students are in line with the major grammatical rules of Amharic. Once the basics are captured, then every singly class shall start with a power point lesson of something major grammatically, then a listening exercise of the lesson of the day, a speaking exercise of the lesson of the day. I would give out the "Words of the day" and "Expression of the days" where I will provide five words and expressions each day for my students. I intend on keeping the classes easy, friendly and interactive.My teaching material

What would I do without Rakeb? I am learning soooo much and don’t even realize it! I get a good explanation as to why certain things are important to know. She’s thorough and I look forward to my classes!

Rakeb is awesome! She listened to me and designed my lesson for exactly what I need to reach my immediate goal. She answered questions about the Ethiopian culture which is something I needed to know given my close ties to Ethiopia, and my upcoming trip there. I appreciate her knowledge, input, and suggestions!

Like always, Rakeb made my lesson meaningful and interesting. She makes me realize that I actually know more than I think by having me put sentences together that I had no idea I could do with the words, vowels and pronouns I already know. I am amazed that I know so much in such a short amount of time. I always look forward to our next lesson! Thank you Rakeb!
