About Me
italki teacher since Feb 4, 2015Interest topicSports & FitnessTravelBusiness & Finance
Hi, my name is Allan, and I am an experienced SIM Manager certified in CMI/ILM/NEBSS. With over 16 years of online teaching expertise, I have developed and refined my teaching methods in various subjects, including business, grammar, conversation skills, and exam preparation (such as IELTS, FCE, CAE and PET). I take pride in helping my students achieve their goals, such as scoring high on exams to study abroad or moving to a new country, in addition to my teaching career. I have completed over 100 marathons and 9 triathlons, which have taught me discipline, focus, and perseverance - qualities I bring to my teaching.Me as a Teacher
I am a seasoned academic English instructor providing thorough instruction in reading, speaking, and writing, with a strong focus on pronunciation and conversational abilities. My expertise lies in preparing students for the IELTS, FCE, CAE and PET exams, consistently achieving positive outcomes. Additionally, I offer business English lessons tailored to various industries, encompassing vital skills like interviewing, role-playing, etiquette, CV writing, and effective business communication such as meetings and phone conversations. Homework assignments are available upon request, and I possess a collection of resources to support diverse subjects, professions, and exam preparations.My lessons & teaching style
I employ a structured approach to maximise my students' potential. I create personalised plans to identify their weaknesses based on their feedback and preferences. Together, we establish tailored schedules and lesson plans to target areas for improvement. Regular evaluations and feedback allow adjustments, ensuring consistent progress.
Optional homework assignments enhance learning and confidence. I aim to equip students with the tools and knowledge for success. I nurture a growth mindset, encouraging curiosity and critical thinking. I strive to unleash their full potential and prepare them for a dynamic world by staying updated on teaching methodologies.My teaching material
