Acerca de mí
Profesor de italki desde 12 de Jul de 2016Tema de interésMúsicaEscrituraViajes
Soy David Phillips, un consumado educador y especialista en comunicación con una sólida formación académica (BSc, MSc, PGCE, CELTA, FHEA). Con una amplia experiencia internacional en el Reino Unido, Europa, Asia y África, he guiado con éxito a profesionales y estudiantes en el dominio del inglés con fines académicos, profesionales y de examen. Los aspectos más destacados de mi carrera incluyen la formación de ejecutivos, el perfeccionamiento de trabajos académicos y la preparación de candidatos para el éxito en el IELTS. Más allá de la enseñanza, mantengo un papel activo en el periodismo y la interpretación musical, disciplinas que informan continuamente mi enfoque de la comunicación eficaz.
Llevo en la profesión desde 1999 y he tenido la oportunidad de enseñar muchas asignaturas diferentes a muchas personas diferentes y a muchos niveles diferentes.
Antes de ser profesora de inglés, fui profesora de ciencias en centros de secundaria de Ruanda e Inglaterra. Luego me pasé a la enseñanza del inglés, ya que mi afición por los viajes y los idiomas me alejó del laboratorio.
Durante ese tiempo, he aprendido muchos estilos de enseñanza diferentes, no sólo de libros y cursos de formación, sino de los propios alumnos.
En 2018, empecé a dar clases online y, desde entonces, no he dejado de mejorar mi técnica de enseñanza online.
La cualidad más importante que tengo como profesor es que te escucho a ti, el alumno.

I had a fantastic class with David. He immediately understood the context of my work and the professional knowledge behind it, even though it is quite specialized. What impressed me most was how quickly he grasped my ideas and helped me polish my presentation script in a way that felt both natural and professional.
David has a sharp eye for language nuance—he doesn’t just correct grammar, but helps me shape the tone and rhythm so it sounds authentic. At the same time, he is patient and encouraging, which makes the whole process very enjoyable.
I highly recommend David to anyone who wants a teacher who is not only smart and professional, but also able to adapt quickly to your needs.

David is so professional and well-prepared in all aspects for helping students be more easily able to connect with the language they're struggling with. I always appreciate the way in which he makes conversations productive and engaging. He covers from thought-provoking questions to small things in everyday experience while having me even sometimes forget about the fact that I'm talking to him in English, which is very comfortable and productive at the same time. I'm so thankful that he, as a language learner himself as well, helps me keep motivated in my long journey with English. Thanks, David!
