About Me

italki teacher since Nov 9, 2018

Hello, my name is Adam. I have a past career as a Mechanical Engineer. I have a Certificate IV in TESOL, and are currently furthering my studies in a Masters of Teaching Primary children. I have worked as an education assistant and English tutor for around 10 years. I live in Melbourne, Australia with my family. I enjoy helping people learn English, from relative beginners, and for adults that want to get to a higher level with University studies taught in English or work in English speaking environments.

Me as a Teacher

As a teacher, I have supported English, Maths and some other subjects to both primary and secondary level students covering ages 5 to 18. I have learned Japanese through previous learning and through italki, so I understand the difficulty to communicate in another language. With my work with young children, I am very patient. With adults, I look for any any difficulties through conversation that you may have in speaking and pronunciation, and will work with you on this. I can provide traditional and structural grammar guidance if you wish to develop communication skills, e.g: in job applications, business or perhaps engineering meeting type context discussions in your line of work.

My lessons & teaching style

I have a relaxed style of teaching, and also can set a set formal lesson materials for you. This includes working with young students in Primary school or high school students. For adults, I provide more mature topics including more professional level conversations. I will ask you and find what you would like help in your English, and then I can provide a lesson for that. For casual conversation practice, we can decide a context, like business meetings or going shopping, and then work together to build the conversation. I can provide a document to read as a conversation starter, and can add to it from there.

Once again I had an interesting conversation with Adam about different subjects, which actually helps me broaden my vocabulary. Besides learning English I am also learning about Australian culture.
