About Me
italki teacher since Jul 19, 2021InterestsMusicFoodPets & AnimalsSports & FitnessFilms & TV Series
Hi. I'm Neil from England! I am an experienced teacher of English to students of other languages.
I spent 5 years teaching English to Italians in Italy. I can speak a good level of Italian so I understand exactly what it feels like to learn a foreign language. I also spent 2 years in Spain as a conversation assistant and can speak and understand Spanish to a good level.
I spent a year in China teaching English before the Pandemic.
You can see that I love learning about languages and other cultures!
My other main interest is playing the piano. I love to talk about movies, politics, science and anything else that you are interested in really. I've recently taken up painting too!Me as a Teacher
I love learning and I love to inspire others to learn. I am always enthusiastic and friendly! My students always comment on how patient I am. My main job is to make you feel relaxed and ready to learn. The most important thing is that I want you to feel free to make mistakes. I don't want you to ever feel nervous about learning.
I have a great deal of experience teaching both face to face and online.
I know what it feels like to learn a foreign language . It can be challenging, but it should also be very rewarding!
I am especially familiar with the problems speakers of Italian and Spanish face learning English.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons on Italki are for adult learners. At the end of each lesson, you should feel that you have had a chance to say something that you didn't know or weren't confident with before.
The structure of the lessons will depend on your goals. If you already have a good level of English and want to keep your language fresh, then we can focus on conversation- we can choose a topic to prepare before the lesson.
If you prefer something which is more structured we can do that too- the lesson could be based on an area of grammar that you want to improve, some new vocabulary you want to learn, or a skill that you need to use like writing an email or preparing for a vacation.5.0
