Acerca de mí
Profesor de italki desde 17 de Sep de 2017
Hi, everyone! My name is Chris. I am an American and I'm 57 years old. I live in the United States in the state of North Carolina, which is in the southeast part of the country. I previously lived in Europe for 18 years. I have been married for 35 years. I have 2 daughters and 2 grandchildren. I have many hobbies like collecting, repairing and using fountain pens; playing tennis and volleyball; repairing electronic devices like laptops, tablets and mobile phones and raising tropical fish in naturally planted aquariums. In my free time, I also like growing bonsai trees and exotic tropical plants like orchids, African violets, tillandsias and carnivorous plants like Venus Fly Traps.

Yo como profesor
I've lived and/or worked in Europe (Budapest, Hungary) for most of the last 22 years. Working with a non-profit US organization, I've helped organize and teach summer intensive and year-round follow-up English courses in Hungary, Romania, Serbia and Bosnia. I've also provided personal tutoring to dozens of English learners over the years both in person and using Skype.
I have a Master's Degree with classroom teaching experiences ranging from Elementary school to College. I've also received TEFL/TESOL certification from Teflen Training College. I've tutored English students of all ages (children to adults) privately and online. I'm passionate that learning should not be boring.
Mis clases y método de enseñanza
Unless the student specifically requests something different, the primary emphasis of my lessons is speaking practice and conversational listening comprehension. This makes up 40-45 minutes of each 60 minute lesson. The topics for these conversation exercises is a balanced mixture of formal business subjects and practical everyday English speaking tasks. (Of course, the student can request a certain topic at any time.)
The secondary emphasis of my lessons is reading comprehension and pronunciation practice. This usually involves 15-20 minutes of each 60 minute lesson. Both written and audio versions of short texts and articles are used for these exercises.

Chris is an amazing teacher. I've talked to 100+ teachers/tutors since I started learning English 4 years ago but he is one of the most dedicated teachers to teach language. He is very supportive and well-prepared. And his lesson is constructed.
