Hello! My name is Jared and I love the Scots language. I am excited to share my language with you. At home my family and I only speak Scots and Gaelic. I have been passionate about language for as long as I can remember. I love music, dance, video games, board games, and movies. I love to read although reading has always been a challenge for me and I love to write and translate. Preserving the Scots and Gaelic languages is a deep passion of mine and the only way they keep going is for more people to start using them. If you have any interest in learning Scots, even just a little bit, I suggest giving it a least a try and seeing what makes it such a great language. Thank you!Me as a Teacher
I like to keep things casual and simple when learning. I feel that reading is one of the fastest ways to acquiring a language as well as conversation about things you actually care about. Gamification is another area I will be exploring because through games and story we can help to retain the new words and use ones previous to keep the momentum going. I have many books in Scots across many dialects and I myself do translation, so I have a lot of content to share for each lesson. I have spent years learning how languages work and what works when learning and what doesn't and I like to help people get over the fear of learning any language. My lessons & teaching style
Lessons are custom to each student as I like to find what the students' goals are and focus in on those. I have textbooks for both Scots and English for the more academic approach and have many books in both languages to work on vocabulary, comprehension, reading, and speaking aloud. I teach multiple dialects for Scots, and for English I prepared for teaching both casual and professional speech.My teaching material

Jared met me where I am. I have been speaking Doric Scots for over five years, but my grammar and accent need improvement. He started welcomingly with an anecdote that allowed me to chime in where I felt comfortable and then we moved on to my weak areas once he had broken the ice. I am definitely coming back for more, and recommend anyone with a love of Scottish culture to do the same!
Thank ye, Jared. Ah’ll daunder doon tae hae a wicin wi ye agin richt swippert-like!
