Acerca de mí
Profesor de italki desde 13 de Mar de 2017Tema de interésHistoriaDeportesViajesArteSalud
Hello and welcome to my profile! I will be happy to help you improve your French or English for your personal or professional needs.
I have a BA & an MA in English (Sorbonne University), and professional certifications in teaching (Cambridge CELTA), translation (Institute of Linguists) and journalism (UCLA Ext).
I have business experience in several fields: pharmaceutical business intelligence, international sales and foreign direct investment.
I know the challenges of studying languages as I am a language nerd myself, who speaks Spanish, Catalan, Italian, German and Mandarin at various levels of fluency.Mostrar traducción
Yo como profesor
I have 6 years’ experience teaching online and many more face-to-face. I enjoy teaching as I get to meet new people and share my strategies for learning languages.
Over the years I have passed several language exams, including Mandarin Chinese HSK4 (the 4th of 6 levels), Goethe Institut’s B2 German (with a 100% score in speaking), a C2 exam in Spanish and a B2 test in Catalan.
I have worked in the US, UK, France and Spain as a focus group moderator and a sales executive. These days, when I am not teaching, I work as a Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) consultant, helping economic development agencies from all over the world attract investors.Mis clases y método de enseñanza
I customise my lessons to my students' needs. You may come to me with a specific goal in mind, such as preparing for an exam, a job interview or a business presentation. On the other hand, you may just wish to take your language skills to the next level, in which case I will assess your problem areas, and take it from there.
I can help you with:
- Exam preparation
- Grammar
- Interview preparation and coaching
- Presentation preparation and coaching
- Text editing / Translations (I am a qualified translator)
- CV / cover letter writing
- And many more...Mi material didáctico

I appreciate his patience even when I am not prepared for a lesson as sometimes I am tired after work and could not take time for preparation.

David is working on areas that I need most. And he makes it fun! He is the best by a long, long shot of any language instructor I’ve had. I should keep this a secret so it doesn’t become too difficult to schedule!
