CELTA Certified Teacher in London - Lots of Experience Teaching Latinos, All Are Welcome! I'm an out-going EFL teacher who is from the UK. I got my CELTA certificate in 2021, so I've been teaching for 4 years now. I teach all ranges of students in general English, as well as exam classes for IELTS. I love travelling, sport and cooking! I've travelled across a lot of South America, and I lived in Mexico for a short while. At the moment, I'm also doing a part time course in the sciences, as I've always been interested in them and I think it'll widen my knowledge base for when I'm teaching. As a teacher, I like to think I'm a warm and comforting presence in a class. I really try to make students feel comfortable and confident enough to speak. I understand how hard it is learning another language, having learnt Spanish myself! First of all, I think it's so important for a teacher to be flexible in what they teach, especially when it comes to 1-to-1 classes. I think I do this very well, always. gauging student's needs and making new material if needs be for them. Another core part of my lessons is grammar. A lot of teachers are scared to teach grammar, especially for advanced level students, but not me. Not only do I think it's one of the most vital parts of anyone's language education, but I also think it doesn't have to be boring or gruelling. And lastly, for me speaking is the most important part of the lesson, as well being exposed to lots of listening and different accents.

Felix is a good teacher. He can explain the most difficult things the simplest way. What I highly appreciate is that he was always prepared for the lesson.
