About Me
italki teacher since Jul 24, 2017Interest topicTravelMedical & HealthcareBusiness & FinanceFilms & TV SeriesScience
Hi, I’m Tim, I’m a British English teacher and I have more than 10 years experience teaching English. I specialise in helping students at a pre-intermediate to advanced level become more confident, fluent English users with a special focus on preparing candidates for the IELTS test.
As well as having a passion for teaching, I'm a keen traveller, and love the outdoors. I've lived and travelled a lot in South America and Asia, and like to spend as much time as I can in the mountains or sea.Me as a Teacher
Starting in 2009, I gave general and business English lessons to groups and individuals in Argentina, working for a prestigious language school. This included personal coaching for several company directors in two multi-nationals based in the city.
In 2011 I began giving online English classes, and since leaving Argentina in 2012 I have focused on this completely. Over the past several years I've developed a speaking focused approach to online classes, and am a highly proficient online ESL teacher.
I'm an expert on the Cambridge English examinations, primarily IELTS, and have completed Cambridge English Examinations Training.My lessons & teaching style
I want you to practice speaking English as much as possible, so all classes are speaking focused. For IELTS candidates, I have organised a 20 unit course designed to help intermediate level students (bands 5.5 - 6.5) to reach the more advanced levels (bands 7 - 8).
In addition to IELTS preparation, for intermediate to advanced level students I offer special speaking focused discussion lessons, which allow you to develop your vocabulary, learn natural English (including phrasal verbs and idioms), and really focus on speaking.My teaching material
