Acerca de mí
Profesor de italki desde 26 de Oct de 2021Tema de interésDeportesSaludMúsica
I am a Canadian who loves the art of public speaking! I have honors degrees in both English and Speech Communication and I have spent eight years applying my business speaking and writing skills to a career as a leader and project manager in the fast-paced world of business IT. However, there is more to me than just boardrooms and business deals. I have a passion for creativity! I have written four stage plays, I sing, play guitar and have performed live shows since I was young. I have even appeared as an actor on stage and in movies and TV shows! I love the outdoors, running, hiking, camping, and lifting weights.Mostrar traducción
Yo como profesor
I have more than 9 years of experience as an English teacher. I have taught over 4,000 online classes to both adults and children. I also currently work as a corporate teacher who offers specific business English classes and public speaking training to international clients. In addition to my degrees, I currently hold 5 specialized ESL certificates (TESL, TOEIC, IELTS, Business English, Linguistics). In 2017 I won the teacher trainer of the year award. I am fluent in American Sign Language, Khmer Sign Language, and conversational in Khmer. I know how difficult it can be to learn a new language so I use my own learning experience to better understand the challenges of the students I teachMis clases y método de enseñanza
For most of my adult students studying is not the problem! They are experts at learning material, writing tests, and applying formulas. The problem happens when they meet an English speaker and they can't catch the meaning, freeze up, and then lose confidence. This is where I can be the most help! I have spent thousands of hours helping my students to develop English skills that they can actually use in real world speaking scenarios, all while helping them build their confidence. I am very passionate about English and I hope to use my professional and creative skills to create a classroom experience that will be engaging, educational, enlightening, and - most of all - ENJOYABLE!Mi material didáctico

Public Speaking Workshops with Dave are the BEST way to improve my confidence in speaking in English. Dave has been helping me how to effectively deliver what I want to say in my speeches and he has helped me become a confident speaker in just a couple of lessons already. Public Speaking Workshops are great for developing my leadership skills as well and I highly recommend these workshops to anyone wanting to take your English learnings to the next level. Don't just learn English, learn how to speak it effectively and confidently. Dave can help you with any of issues you may have as a English Speaker. I look forward to the next Public Speaking Workshop!

I have been taking conversation classes with Dave for over a year now, and I feel that I have really improved. The lessons are very interactive, the topics varied and adapted to my needs and interests. My fear of interacting with an English speaker has practically disappeared, so much so that I look for opportunities to do so!
Je suis des cours de conversation avec Dave depuis plus d'un an maintenant, et j'ai l'impression de m'être vraiment améliorée. Les leçons sont très interactives, les sujets variés et adaptés à mes besoins et intérêts. Ma crainte de discuter avec un interlocuteur anglophone a pratiquement disparue, à tel point que je cherche les occasions de le faire!

Dave is an amazing teacher with outstanding teaching and business skills. We looked into real world business scenarios and discussed responding strategies. I feel more confident in dealing with similar situations in an English speaking environment going forward. I look forward to working with Dave to improve my English skills!

Public Speaking workshop with Dave is really fun and most importantly his class is results-driven. I get so much out of it in just one lesson. Now I'm already preparing to speak at a speech contest! I could not have done it without Dave's sincere guidance. Dave really care about what his students want in their learnings. I highly recommend anyone to give Public Speaking workshop a go!
