Hello, I am a South African English and Afrikaans community tutor and I live in Cape Town. I have an interest in topics based around current news and music. I like to laugh and get to know different types of people from all over the world.
Me as a Teacher
I am patient and will do extra effort to ensure that my students reach their full potential. I like fun and interesting topics as an inspiration for my lessons. The use of news articles or song lyrics as a bases of discussion seems like a fun way to go.
My lessons & teaching style
I like to discuss topics that the student would enjoy. This will hopefully encourage them with the target language as they have a bigger interest in the topics. I like to give an assignment at the end of the lesson so that we can discuss it in the beginning of each new lesson and build on what they have learnt in the previous lessons. I am open to focus on any of the aims that my students want to achieve by the end of their lessons.

It was a wonderful first experience on iTalki. He is a great conversationalist and able to keep the momentum of the conversation going. His Afrikaans was at the perfect level for me to understand while creating opportunities for me to challenge myself when replying. He kept track of the vocabulary and sentences I struggled with. This helps me because I use flashcards.

His ability to cover a variety of conversation topics is impressive, making the lessons always interesting and relevant. Additionally, he provides excellent teaching materials, further enriching the learning experience. His corrections are accurate and constructive. Undoubtedly, one of the best teachers on the Italki platform. I highly recommend! Thank you, Alberto!
