I am a Professional Teacher and TEFL Certified. I have been teaching for more than four (4) years Hi! I am Teacher Sonny, a licensed professional teacher from the Philippines. I have been teaching here in italki for more than five (5) years. I teach Filipino/Tagalog, Cebuano, and English! During my bachelorโ€™s degree, I studied Filipino Linguistics, so I have a lot to teach to my students. If you are interested, just message me and book a lesson with me. I will make sure it will be worth it. Have fun learning! Teaching is my passion. As a teacher it is my obligation to enrich the learnings of my students most especially when it comes to learning a specific language since it is a complex type of education. As a teacher I am always willing to explain all the intricacies of the language, and to always open my ears for suggestions and recommendations to further empower myself to become a more effective teacher. It is my duty to extricate the fears of my students to let them explore more and learn more not just the specific language but also the culture we have here in the Philippines. My teaching styles are very easy so my students won't feel pressure throughout the lesson. Usually in my class I provide pdf files containing the lesson structures for better and standardized learning, including my video presentations for assessment, PowerPoint slides, articles and news. I use my white board too for better illustration.

I appreciate how patient Sonny is with me during the lessons. I had a hard time with sentence structure and translation. But, he helps me through. Thanks again and see you in the next lesson!

Sonny did a great job explaining things as well as assessing and ascertaining my current skill level. We jumped right in after brief introductions and began reading a short story. look forward to our next session.

Todayโ€™s lesson was very helpful. Sonny was very patient with me and informative. Sentence structure is a challenge but he is helping me understand it more.

I had a great time with Sonny on the trial lesson. I think I will stick with him as my instructor. I scheduled for another lesson on Thursday.
