About Me
italki teacher since Feb 10, 2021InterestsFilms & TV SeriesMusicTravelSports & Fitness
I have been teaching English full time since 2016. From 2016 to 2020 I taught at companies, public institutions and law firms in Madrid as well as immersion courses for university students all over Spain. Since 2020, I have been working online only.
I am also a qualified lawyer and practiced law in England for 8 years. My interests are music, films, TV, sport, travel, photography and current affairs.
I prefer topic-based conversational sessions to improve vocabulary and fluency. If the student would like to practice grammar, reading or listening I have access to a wide variety of suitable coursebooks and other materials to use for this purpose.
From my years of experience of teaching Spanish students, I am very familiar with the mistakes commonly made by Spanish speakers, 'false friends' in vocabulary etc.
I can tailor sessions to the student's area of interest(s) and can provide materials for the student to work on at home, whether this be grammar exercises, reading or listening.
I can also provide interview practice which is something often required by students who are looking to work for English speaking companies.My teaching material

One of the things I like the most is that Michael is always motivating me to speak a better english. Also, he proposes activities so that I can accomplish my goals.

It was very good and helpful to get lessons from Michael about my case study. He has different view and perspective in general and he is very professional.
