About Me

italki teacher since Aug 16, 2021

I am a bubbly and positive individual. My hobbies include spending time with my family, cooking, going out with my friends and traveling. I am friendly and I love making people laugh. I love going to church on Sundays and taking walks around my neighbourhood.

Me as a Teacher

I am a friendly and warm teacher. I like to make my students feel comfortable and free. I am easy to talk to and have a conversation with. I understand that learning a new language can be hard so I am very patient and understanding with my students.

My lessons & teaching style

My teaching approach is to make it fun and enjoyable for my students. I want my students to feel good and confident after having a lesson with me. I prefer to go at the pace of my learners, because I am aware that every student has their own unique needs.
