Hi! My name is Boden, and I am from Chicago. I consider myself an avid language learner, with experience in languages from Italian to Russian. I am going into my freshman year of college, majoring in English and French, with hopes to study law after university. I enjoy all things from books to cinema, and I especially enjoy writing and, of course, touching up on my French and getting into Italian grammar.
Most importantly, I enjoy sharing my love for languages. I have much experience teaching English over the past two years, both formally and informally through various programs; I want to use my experience and my knack for all things languages to help others with their own language goals.
Me as a Teacher
I tailor each lesson to the learner’s goals, interests, and pace, ensuring that instruction is both relevant and motivating. Through conversation-based practice, targeted feedback, and cultural context, I help students build confidence and accuracy in their language use.
In particular, I use PowerPoint presentations and real-time feedback to help reduce errors and improve on pronunciation. Through my experience as a writer and an editor, I will help mitigate poor vocabulary use, providing and building your wordbank to help improve overall sophistication as a speaker.
My lessons & teaching style
I use a wide variety of activities to help promote greater language fluency. In particular, I incorporate current events and everyday language into each and every lesson in order to help foster greater competence in my students' target languages.

Today, I had my first lesson with Boden and it was fantastic!! I really enjoyed it. He corrected my pronunciation and grammar, and I learned many new words. I will definitely book more lessons with him 😊

Boden really put his full effort to make our trial lesson fun and productive. We made sure to structure our future classes and help improve my English in a creative and helpful way. I 100% recommend Boden as your potential English tutor!
