About Me
italki teacher since May 20, 2021InterestsSports & FitnessFilms & TV SeriesMusicFoodTravel
My name is Trevin. I'm American, but I've been living in Florence, Italy and teaching English since 2015. I grew up hiking and riding horses through the mountains of Montana. I majored in Mechanical Engineering and minored in Music in college. I have a passion for traveling, experiencing new cultures and cuisines, and learning languages; I recently reached a personal goal of visiting every continent at least once! My other hobbies and interests include cinema and literature, sports, science, history... We can talk about anything!Me as a Teacher
I earned my TEFL certificate in 2015, and I taught at a private language school in Florence until 2021. Since then, I've been teaching here on italki! I have taught students of all levels from a wide variety of backgrounds. I also have a lot of experience in test preparation--my specialties are the TOEFL and the SAT, but I also have experience with iELTS, TOEIC, Cambridge exams, ACT, GMAT, and GRE. My lessons & teaching style
I want you to be comfortable, relaxed, and enjoy yourself, so I'm informal and very friendly as a teacher. I believe students learn better when they're having fun! I think one of the best ways to improve your language is to practice using it in conversation, where I can correct your mistakes and teach you other relevant expressions, grammar, etc. as they come up naturallyMy teaching material

Seconda lezione con Trevin: è andata molto bene! Il tempo è volato, senza accorgermene. Ottimo insegnante, molto professionale e capace di mettere a proprio agio. La conversazione è stata naturale, piacevole e in un clima rilassato e tranquillo.

La lezione di prova è andata molto bene: Trevin è stato molto disponibile, mettendomi fin da subito a mio agio. Ho potuto interagire con serenità, senza sentirmi giudicata.
