I am a mature student studying French and Spanish at university, I also speak fluent German and hunger to learn more languages. My passion for language learning is why I want to teach languages, to share the gift of multilingualism and gives me a unique understanding of the learner's experience. Other interests include music and reading. As an avid guitarist, I love that feeling you get when you practice something for hours and it finally sounds right.
Me as a Teacher
New teacher on iTalki, looking to help people accomplish their English goals and gain experience as a student studying to become an English teacher at university.
I am studying languages at university with modules focusing on language teaching. Additionally, I have a teaching qualification from the TEFL Org, and have experience teaching some Persian friends English, both on a casual level and to help one prepare for her IELTS exam. I hope I can do this for you too.
My lessons & teaching style
I can offer both a structured and a casual teaching style. Casual being if you just want a tutor to talk with you to identify and help you in areas where you are having trouble and get you conversationally fluent, structured being a lesson with a clear plan, for example; a child who needs to learn a certain subject for a school exam or if you are planning on moving to an English-speaking country and want to be prepared for that. I am open to teaching everyone from absolute beginners to advanced students, all are welcome.
