Acerca de mí
Profesor de italki desde 9 de Aug de 2019Tema de interésLecturaHistoriaAnimales
Ever since I was a kid, I've been fascinated by words. I studied linguistics at university and have been learning French on and off since I was eight. While completing my Master's of Education in Adult Learning and Global Change, I began to learn other languages too and discovered italki.
Since I'm a language learner I understand the struggles and thrills of communicating in a new language. My core target languages are French, Arabic, and Irish. I'm also learning Russian and Spanish.
My other interests include reading, painting (watercolours), listening to music, yoga, the environment, and politics.Mostrar traducción
Yo como profesor
As a learner myself, I know language acquisition is difficult if you can't find a way to practice with fluent speakers. I've been speaking English my whole life and am happy to share that with you!
My Undergraduate degree is in Linguistics and I have a Master's of Education in Adult Learning. I love learning languages as much as I love helping others perfect their English. I've also recently completed a Master's of Education so I have a strong understanding of learning theories.
Due to my background in studying English at a deep level, I have a large vocabulary and a good grasp of grammar, so I can help you with both.Mis clases y método de enseñanza
Each lesson will be designed around you. In our first conversation we can learn a bit about one another and I will ask about what you hope to achieve through our lessons. You can specify a topic or I can provide one. We can read articles together and discuss them, or just talk about the weather. Whatever will keep the words coming for you!
I will also provide gentle feedback. I may make notes during our lesson so you can practice. If you like, I can also provide 'homework' - some reading on a topic, for example, to discuss in our next lesson. I will also record a vocabulary list if you struggle with the pronunciation of certain words.Mi material didáctico

Polo allowed me to improve my level of understanding and expression.
She's a really good teacher, you can't see the time spent during a lesson.
We had pleasant conversations.
So thank you Polo.

love the encouraging teaching style of Polo：）She's so nice and she‘d stop to make sure that I completely understand. I believe the conversation relieves my pressure on speaking English and anxiety over exams. Strongly recommend the class if you‘re also struggling with a foreign language☺️
