About Me
italki teacher since Jun 21, 2021InterestsTravelArtTechScienceMusic
🌟I help students feel comfortable, confident, and truly themselves in English—so they can express their ideas, opinions, and personality in every area of life.
I also support goal-based English for presentations, interviews, negotiations, and TOEFL/IELTS. If you’re moving abroad, I can help you prepare for English used in visas, migration processes, and relocation conversations.
My lessons blend real-world scenarios with creativity to keep learning practical, fun, and motivating. 🚀Me as a Teacher
I believe coming forward with great gratitude from my past and current teachers, that us humans, 'role-models', professionals of society, paint or even mold the future of the students who will one day replace us.
It is with great compassion and empathy that I place myself as a teacher. Expanding in clear, specific and mem-orable ways the minds of those who concern, dare to curious, embrace their objectives. My lessons & teaching style
Firstly understanding where our English proficiency stands to them move forward on behalf of the reasons we are studying English. Therefore, build upon those reasons with great compassion and persistence accomplishing goal after goal, objective after objective.
With any / all methodologies that are proven to succeed.
I believe with my enthusiasm, patience, organization and empathy. We can accomplish your dreams! Only if you believe in them too.My teaching material

TeacherWhile living aboard in New Zealand, for one year, I thought English to my ex-partner. She is from the south of Belgium and French was her native language. I therefore created my own methodology adapting to her kinesthetic process. I also followed the methods from ‘English for everyone, editor: DK – Adults; 1st edition’

As always, another great lesson with Yuri. I can see how easily I'm improving thanks to his patient nature. He explains and guides you in a way that you can integrate the new words that come up in conversation in a very natural, stress-free way. Thanks, Yuri!
