PLEASE NOTE: I am no longer giving lessons to children at this time.
Hi there! My name is Rob. I am from the United States and I live in Mississippi. I have been teaching English on Italki since late 2018, and since then I have helped English learners from all over the world to improve their grammar, pronunciation, and conversation abilities. In my spare time I am learning Mandarin Chinese. For fun, I like to exercise, cook, listen to music, play games, and travel.
你好!我叫Rob。我来自美国,在密西西比州。我很想帮助你练习英语。我们可以练习对话,阅读,语法,发音或词汇。请记住,我只能用英语授课。另外,我现在不教孩子。很期待见到你!
Me as a Teacher
I have had conversations with many English learners from many countries and am familiar with how to make English understandable. I will be happy to point out and errors you make in your speech and offer corrections. I consider myself a pretty laid back guy, and I like to meet new people just like you!

Rob is my favoirte English teacher in Italki. He patiently teaches you English without wasting a min. he is always on time and opens to the topic you would like the most to discuss. The way he teaches English I think is the most effective way in a short period of time .
I hope he stays with us here for a long time. and also I wish him the best of besties in his life.

I'd like to dedicate some word to Rob, I do it for free.
Rob is a real teacher, he has a great grammatical knowledge and a substantial preparation, but his key points are the soft skills that you can't learn to in college: his patience and his passion in listening to his students. In just 3 months my English has
grown considerably and thanks to Rob, I found an important job in a international company.
I owe him a lot. Thanks Rob

Rob was very attentive and made some obervations and corrections.
The lesson had a good pass and a natural flow.
He helped me to undestand my current profeciency level and provided ideas for future lessons.
I hope I can continue learning with him.

My English has comprehensively improved thanks to Rob! Whatever I ask him to do for the class, he always accepts it and helps me. It is really lucky for me to practice English with him. Words can't express how grateful I am!

Rob is an excellent teacher; he knows how to identify your weak points and gently corrects them in a kind and clear way, emphasizing the corrections. He is definitely the kind of teacher I was looking for.
