About Me
italki teacher since Apr 1, 2020Interest topicTechTravelFood
I grew up in the U.S. State of Mississippi and currently live in Lima, Perú. I graduated from the University of Mississippi with a Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology and a Juris Doctorate (Law Degree) from the University of Mississippi School of Law.
From 2007 to 2018 I worked at a law firm in the United States as a legal assistant and document analyst. In 2015 I passed the Mississippi Bar Exam and received a license to practice law in the State of Mississippi.
I decided in 2019 to follow a dream to live and work in Latin America and become a fluent Spanish speaker. So, I packed up and moved to Lima, Perú.Me as a Teacher
In January of 2020 I completed the Via Lingua TEFL and TESOL certification course in Arequipa, Perú. I also earned a certificate from the International TEFL Academy for Teaching English Online and completed a certification course in Teaching Business English.
I teach online, full time.
Please do not try to do our lessons on a phone. These lessons have PDFs, videos, audios, and we use the platform chat box for notes so it is better to use a computer for the lessons.
I'm sorry, but I do not teach children under 13 years of age.My lessons & teaching style
I teach conversation classes using a direct method. I guide the student's learning process by encouraging them to speak. In my class, the student will do the majority of speaking because the best way to learn to speak English is to practice speaking English.
The student learns by challenging themselves to communicate effectively. Through this process the student will overcome their natural shyness and gain the confidence they need to speak. The student also gains experience comprehending a native English speaker by interacting with me. As the student speaks, I will listen to learn the student's abilities, goals and needs and tailor my lessons to suit them. Vocabulary is a primary focus.My teaching material

It has been almost a year since we started our lessons, and it has been an incredible journey that rapidly boosted my confidence in English, which continues to grow. My personal goal was to achieve a level of English that would help me pass university exams, and I can proudly say that I reached that goal with James's help. He played a significant role in my success.
James is not only polite but also the epitome of patience. He is the best English teacher I've ever met. His classes offer various directions, allowing you to tailor the program to your specific needs. Moreover, he constantly adapts his approach and seeks to improve his teaching skills by incorporating new features, and the results are evident.
If you wish to develop a strong command of English, I highly recommend taking a lesson with James. Fluent English doesn't happen overnight; it's a journey that requires finding a good sensei and mentor for guidance. Don't hesitate to try this great source of knowledge.

I can't believe myself. I have been learning English with James for over 2 years, He has been teaching me since I was at A1 level until I can improve to C1. Now I have more confidence in speaking with native speakers and don't stop learning. I wish to speak fluently and believe that my dream come true soon.

James is a lot of fun to study with. I’ve been learning English with him since 2020 and he has taught me many ways to talk about my dog in English. I recommend him very highly!
