I’m a friendly, patient and knowledgeable teacher. I balance between grammar and vocabulary, emphasizing conversational skills. My interests in health, arts, sociology, and philosophy blend cultural discussions into the classroom, promoting awareness of Britain, Europe, and America offering valuable insights into English-speaking cultures.
My classes are a comfortable, interactive learning environment. I encourage students to take risks and learn from mistakes. I believe grammar and vocabulary are essential foundations, for excellent conversational skills which I offer in every class. My lessons & teaching style
My teaching approach is highly interactive, with approximately 80% of class time devoted to student practice using target vocabulary and phrases. The remaining 20% is reserved for guided tuition and feedback. I kickstart our sessions by introducing key vocabulary through texts or videos, demonstrating their real-world application. This combination of hands-on practice and constructive guidance ensures a balanced and effective learning experience, fostering both confidence and proficiency in the language.My teaching material

I was so inspired by our first lesson, this is exactly what I was expecting when I joined iTalki to level up my English - Sam asked me thought-provoking questions, and stimulated me to share my opinion on a range of topics, which made my brain work intensely. Looking forward to our next lessons!

Another great and thought-provoking conversation with Sam. I enjoyed the interaction very much and I was given ample time to speak. Sam guided me through the ways to speak slower and with a British style He is very supportive and has given me encouraging and constructive feedback all the time. Once again, I would like to say that I really like the way he speaks. Hope I can speak as calmly and confidently as he does and in a more British sounding way.

Had a wonderful conversation with Sam, and we covered a variety of topics. He is friendly, patient and supportive, and speaks clearly with a beautiful British accent and voice. Highly recommended if you do want to sound more British.

It was a pleasure learning with Mr. Sam. He gave thoughtful feedback after our discussion on a relevant topic. I’d be glad to have another lesson with him in the future!
