Me as a Teacher
- I have taught more than 15,000 language lessons on italki.
- I focus on effective communication and language awareness.
- I speak English, French and Arabic fluently, and I am learning German, so I fully understand the challenges of language learning.
- I have expansive general and specialised knowledge in several fields, I am an avid reader, and have some artistic and creative tendencies, so I love discussing culture, books and art. I never run out of ideas for new discussion topics during lessons. My lessons & teaching style
- I teach Speaking Skills, General English and Exam Preparation courses (IELTS, CPE, CAE, FCE, PET and KET).
- I teach business, professional, technical, and academic English based on my experience in a range of different fields.
- I usually design my lessons using online resources, but I also use coursebooks published by Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press and other reputable publishers. Additionally, I design lessons from scratch when needed.
- My vast and varied experience has helped me developed effective learning and teaching techniques. I can tell you more about that during classes :)My teaching material
