About Me
italki teacher since Apr 9, 2018InterestsEnvironment & NaturePets & AnimalsHistoryFoodTech
Eight years ago, I moved from the U.S. to the Philippines, where I now live permanently. My experience adapting to a new culture has given me perspective and insight that I have used to help hundreds of professionals reach their language goals. Beyond teaching, I love exploring the islands by motorcycle. My hobbies include gardening (with mixed success) and caring for my pets. I have six dogs, a flock of pigeons, and one ferocious office rabbit. Passionate about cross-cultural communication and language learning, I hold a Level 5 TEFL certification (earned with distinction) and take pride in being an online educator.
Me as a Teacher
Since moving to the Philippines, I have learned how vital it is for some people to learn and use a new language. I need one for my everyday life, and speaking the local language makes my trips to immigration much more pleasant. I appreciate that an intelligent person, who has a great vocabulary in their native language, may feel frustrated when they struggle to say something in their second language. I understand how lonely it can be when the people around you cannot see your personality because you do not know how to express yourself. I also know how fabulous it feels to overcome those challenges. I understand what my students need because I am also a student. My lessons & teaching style
In my opinion, most people learn well in a relaxed environment. However, it can be beneficial to have some structure unless a person has already reached their goals. Because of that, I try to adapt my sessions to the needs of each student. I have lots of lesson material for adults and share it freely with my students. I am not qualified to teach children, and I prefer adult students. I do not accept any students under 18. I do not offer or allow video or audio recordings of my lessons. However, I strongly believe in taking notes and collaborating on corrections. I always make these notes and summaries available after each session.My teaching material

Today was my first class with Rebecca and she was already prepared with a plan for my personal development, and was asking me questions to adjust any interest or expectations. I can’t wait to start working with her! Thank you Rebecca!
