Hello, 你好,
I have lived and worked in Britain, China and Korea. I can speak some Chinese and I love learning languages. I really want to learn some more German and Japanese in the future and hopefully start Arabic.
I am very interested in many topics such as psychology, education, business, philosophy, history, physics, storytelling and many more. I am really happy to talk about serious topics and also normal cultural things like movies, books, TV, work and life.
I am building my own English course and am preparing to apply for a PhD in Education with a focus on vocabulary memory.
I believe I learn from every new person I meet :)Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching English for over 15 years. I teach beginners (A1) to advanced (C1 and C2) students. I teach teenagers, university students and professional adults. I have taught many students from All over the world.
I have a Masters in Applied Linguistics and Teaching English. I also have a Trinity College Diploma TESOL which is a Masters-level qualification for teaching adults.
I have taught IELTS, Cambridge exams, Business English and many other types of classes to groups and to one-to-one students. I have lots of experience explaining grammar and helping people to remember vocabulary.
I will always be happy to help you. Remember, making mistakes helps you to learn.My lessons & teaching style
It is very important for me to understand why you want better English and what English problems you have. I can help you to focus on your specific goals and problems.
I am very good at explaining grammar points to people and I can give you lots of examples to help you study.
I know homework and reading/watching articles/videos is very important for you to improve your English in between classes. When we meet we can talk about the work and I can answer your questions so that you will learn more.
I will work on your pronunciation.
I will improve your grammar.
I will correct your errors.
I will make you confident at speaking English and ready for your exams or for using English at work!My teaching material
