21+ years teaching. Adults, Kids, IELTS. Canada government-certified. UBC graduate. Vancouver local. My highest scoring IELTS students have received 8.0 to 8.5. I have specialized in IELTS (Academic and General) since 2016. In addition, I have taught English lessons to kindergarten to grade 12 students. I graduated from the University of British Columbia, in my hometown Vancouver, and am a Government of Canada certified English teacher. My students include Canadian and international students aged 5 to 18 enrolled in public and private schools in British Columbia. Finally, I have 10 years of experience teaching business English to corporate employees (i.e., Fortune 500 companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange and London Stock Exchange) at an international American language school - Shanghai branch. I have worked as an IELTS expert since 2016 teaching in-person IELTS in Canadian classrooms to students aged 15 to 50+ and I have been teaching adults and kids since 2005. Since 2006, I have been teaching full time as a certified professional teacher. In physical classrooms, I have taught students from 40 to 50 countries as well as 15 to 20 countries in online classes. Before each class, I encourage students to prepare questions that they wish to ask. This is particularly useful as students have different strengths and weaknesses. What are significant challenges for some students are not for others. Some fun facts about me: - Favourite news channels: BBC, CBC - Pairing red wine and snacking with surfing YouTube - Sunbathing and hanging out at beautiful beaches

Playful, immersive learning through creativity, games, stories, music, and meaningful conversation. Over the years, I’ve worked with infants and young children (from 6 months old), children and teenagers in group and 1-1 settings, families and homeschoolers, neurodivergent children, and adults who want to truly live a language, not just study it. My teaching style is playful, immersive, and deeply human. I believe languages are learned best when curiosity comes before correctness, communication matters more than perfection, and learners feel safe, relaxed, and engaged. As a teacher, I focus on creating encouraging spaces where students can take risks, make mistakes, and build real confidence using the language.

    Ben speaks remarkably clear and refined English, making him very easy to follow. He has a wonderful personality, he is incredibly kind, patient, and truly cares about his students’ progress. He also speaks fluent natural Japanese with a beautiful very clear accent. With his deep understanding of Japanese culture, he intuitively understands where Japanese learners might struggle and makes it easy to ask any questions in Japanese whenever needed. He has my highest recommendation!

    I had my 377th lesson with Ed today, and it’s incredible how consistently high the quality of his teaching remains. He’s always looking for new, effective ways to make our lessons even better. His support goes beyond the lessons themselves—he also prepares review materials and tools to help me practise between sessions. I really appreciate the care and effort he puts into my learning. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their English!

    James is an excellent teacher and a wonderful person. During our first lesson, he asked about my goals and suggested a plan. In our lessons, we work a lot on preparing for business interviews and learning how to talk about my work experience and projects. One of my main problems is nervousness. It is very difficult for me to answer unexpected questions. I start mixing up tenses and using the same words again and again. James helps me deal with my nervousness in a calm and friendly way. He also helps me sound more confident in English. It was especially important for me that he corrected my mistakes and pronunciation instead of only saying, “You’re doing great.” This really helps me improve and grow. I also really like the friendly and comfortable atmosphere during the lessons. We can laugh about some things, and this helps me stay involved and enjoy the learning process.

    Adam is turning into my English coach more than my English teacher. His new method aims to teach you a new way of learning a language. The ultimate goal of his classes is for you to become an independent student. He wants you to learn how to learn by yourself. The key point is to understand how the process of learning a language works and take advantage of it. Not only do his classes have plenty of content, but he also shows you a refreshing way of making notes, reviewing them, and making connections to transform all your passive English into active English. I've started using power tools like Anki, Obsidian, Youglish, Readlang and English-Corpora, a whole set of resources to take my English to the next level.

    My 8-year-old daughter Anna had her first introductory lesson with Tom, and it was brilliant. Tom was very patient, friendly and funny, which helped Anna feel comfortable right away. The lesson was engaging, and the material was well structured and perfectly suited to her level. I was also particularly impressed by Tom’s pronunciation. In my opinion, he has a very clear and easy-to-understand pronunciation, which is especially valuable for children who are learning English.

    I have been taking weekly classes with Ariadne for more than a year now, sometimes choosing Structured Speaking Practice and sometimes Free Conversation, and I always really enjoy our lessons. She creates such a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere, while at the same time giving really helpful corrections and suggestions. I especially appreciate the detailed written feedback after each lesson, which is extremely useful. Our Free Conversation lessons always feel very natural, and we discuss a wide range of interesting and varied topics. This has not only helped me expand my vocabulary, but also improved my fluency and, most importantly, my confidence when speaking English. The Structured Speaking Practice lessons are just as enjoyable and effective. Each session is thoughtfully structured—balancing speaking, listening, reading, and vocabulary practice in a perfect way. Ariadne is professional, punctual, always well-prepared, and I can recommend her without any hesitation.

    Smith老师是一位很好的老师,在跟着老师学习之前,我英语基础很差,很难开口说完整句子,目前距离第一次试课不到20天,上了5次课,加上日常练习和完成作业,已经可以针对一个话题说2-3分钟的口语(其实五分钟以上也可以)。Smith老师的一些学习方法也给了我一些深入学习英语的启发 非常非常幸运能遇到Smith老师 I initially came to italki because I felt completely stuck when trying to speak English out, and practicing on my own just wasn't working. Mrs. Smith is incredibly patient. She customizes the lessons based on my specific needs and speaks at a perfect pace. Whenever I don't understand something, she always finds a different way to explain it until I get it. She also makes sure to send me the lesson documents after class. After less than 20 days of learning with her, combined with my own practice, I can now speak continuously for 2-3 minutes on a given topic. She also taught me some highly effective learning methods, like how to internalize new language chunks into my own expressions. I am so grateful for Mrs. Smith's help. Thanks to her, learning English has actually become one of my hobbies now.

    I started having lessons with Abby before I began working in the U.S., and they've been super helpful. After talking about my goals and situation, she prepared customized lesson materials for me. We did about fifteen lessons using them and the they were exactly what I needed. She provided lesson notes in Google Docs so that I can review them later. I'd recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their English, especially those who have specific needs or goals. I'm looking forward to our future lessons. Thanks Abby!
