HI there! My name is Jamieson, or Jam. I'm from Melbourne, Australia.
I love languages! I speak some Spanish and French and have lived in Spain, France and Chile.
I'm a keen traveller and love to learn about other cultures. If you take my classes, I'd hope to also learn something from you and hear about your home and culture.
Apart from teaching, I'm also a filmmaker. I make short films and music videos. I love cinema, music and literature.
Me as a Teacher
After finishing my undergraduate studies, I lived in Spain in 2010 and taught at a primary school for 1 year as a conversation assistant. I loved it! I tutored the students in the community and this was the beginning of my teaching career as an English teacher.
I taught at a private English academy in Melbourne from 2020-22, in the classroom and online. I have experience teaching all levels, from beginner up to advanced.
My lessons & teaching style
I'm patient, enthusiastic and warm. I like to do a mix of activities in class and I think it is important to speak in English throughout the class. This is the best way to learn.
I have textbook resources we can work through together, but my preference is to build classes around your interests. Sport, politics, arts, media... whatever! We can find articles to read, videos to listen to, and then work on producing language through both speaking and writing.
