About Me
italki teacher since Apr 2, 2021
I'm a language enthusiast, wife, mom and artist who lived in Italy as a college student for a semester. That opened my eyes to culture and language different from my own and I loved every second of it! It created a need in me to understand these language differences and how to cross those barriers. To me, learning a language is another piece to the puzzle of another culture. I love to see the "Aha!" moments when a student starts to gain an understanding in the mystery of what is the English language. I really want to see you attain your English language goals and I'll help anyway that I can using the methods you like most whether though conversation or writing support.
Me as a Teacher
I have a Slovakian friend who often asked me to correct her grammar and pronunciation and to help her with her writing so it would flow more like that of a native speaker. It was truly enjoyable! know I can help you with your language and writing skills as well.
I gravitate towards others from different cultures and we usually end up talking about language. They see my interest in them and they'll often ask for help with their English language questions which I love to answer. Between my skills and my interest, I'm confident in my abilities to help a learner achieve a similar understanding based on the level they are at. It'll be as rewarding for me as I hope it will be for you!
My lessons & teaching style
I would mostly utilize friendly and interesting conversation, helping to guide and correct during our conversations. We would talk about subjects that interest you. I'm up on the latest in current events and I also can converse about topics as varied as art and design in all forms, music, food, history, film and other cultural topics. We can take the conversation where you are most comfortable. I'm a good listener with an understanding of what is trying to be conveyed and I could help you with not only the technical aspects of the English language but with choosing the best words and phrases to express yourself in speaking and writing. I have lessons to help with writing skills as well!
