About Me
italki teacher since Feb 18, 2020InterestsFilms & TV SeriesBusiness & FinanceReadingWritingAnimation & Comics
I grew up in a coastal town in Scotland and benefited from living in a small close community. In the Philippines, my husband has a boat which is his family business so we spend a lot of time deep sea fishing. I'm passionate about painting mainly marine compositions. I studied fine art at Glasgow University and graduated with an Honors degree in Fine Art. Creativity is important in every aspect of my life. I am a sensitive empathetic individual and follow the philosophy of the Tao te Ching. I am also interested in the theory of relativity and the research of the late Stephen Hawking. Alternatively I feel that we are all here for a reason and that we have unique skills and attributes to offer.Me as a Teacher
As a teacher my role is to analyze learner needs and develop their linguistic and communicative competence, to meet both their present and future needs, for full participation in society. My practicing, organizing principle is 'themes,' using a text-based, task-based, content-based, mixed/multi-syllabus. I provide tasks that encourage interaction and, through it, negotiation for meaning, using Communicative Methodology and rationalist/humanistic theory, based on cognitive psychology. My communicative approach reflects real-life language use, in terms of discourse, that is relevant and memorable, supporting learners as they gradually move to independent language use.My lessons & teaching style
Authentic material is used as supporting elements in achieving communicative and analytical skills, to develop learners’ knowledge, values, and attitudes as a holistic process.
My aim is to impart knowledge to a student by enabling the student to fulfill his/her potential without curtailing his/her natural instinct to learn and discover by curiosity and having fun. My approach is to ensure that students have ample opportunity to express individual and social skills, by providing a climate of acceptance, approval, empathy, and respect.My teaching material
