Experienced, patient and friendly teacher. Here to help you. I teach English to all ages, beginners and advanced. I like to teach informal, conversational English which is useful for friendship and travel. I also teach business English which can help people in their careers. I develop lessons and plans according to the needs and interests of different students. I like to teach English because it helps people a lot. I have taught for many years and have had experience teaching all ages. I like to teach adults because they generally take learning seriously and they have the experience of life. I like teaching younger people because they are fun and they have an optimistic outlook on life. I teach both formally and informally. Lessons can be free flowing or they can be more structured with specific material to be covered. On italki I structure my lessons around the needs of the students.
