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 Economics, with hopes to study law after university. I enjoy all things from books to cinema, though I especially enjoy 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, 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.

Boden is an excellent teacher. His lessons are always clear, engaging, and full of helpful advice for language learners.
Since he is also learning a language himself, he truly understands the challenges students face and knows how to support them effectively.

Williams is very caring and gentle, and always gives me useful suggestions for more local expressions. I like his teaching styles, guide you speaking more then pointing out the improper way. thanks a lot.
