Acerca de mí
Profesor de italki desde 13 de Jul de 2021Tema de interésPelículasViajesLecturaComidaAnimales
Hola, soy Amanda. Soy Amanda, una profesora certificada de Inglés como Lengua Extranjera o Segunda Lengua de Illinois, EE.UU.. Me especializo en la enseñanza de los niños y soy conocida por mi estilo de enseñanza lúdico, amable y de apoyo. Me encanta crear vínculos afectuosos con cada estudiante y ayudarles a sentirse seguros y entusiasmados con el aprendizaje. Mi propia experiencia aprendiendo dos lenguas extranjeras -y viviendo en el extranjero- me ayuda a conectar con estudiantes de todo el mundo. Fuera del aula, me gusta pasar tiempo con mi familia, leer y jugar con mis dos perros tontos. Me apasiona crear clases de inglés que sean divertidas, significativas y que fomenten la confianza de los alumnos más jóvenes.Mostrar idioma original
Yo como profesor
Con más de 7 años de experiencia y más de 1.000 alumnos impartidos, aporto profesionalidad, atención y creatividad a cada clase. Tengo formación en educación infantil y comunicación intercultural. Soy una profesora paciente que da el 100% para conectar con cada niño y crear un espacio donde la confianza pueda florecer. Dedico tiempo a entender cómo aprende mejor cada alumno y adapto mi enseñanza en consecuencia. Los errores se corrigen de forma suave y lúdica. Mis lecciones equilibran la diversión y el progreso real, y proporciono retroalimentación después de cada clase para que los padres se sientan involucrados e informados. Mis clases y método de enseñanza
Todos los niños aprenden mejor en un entorno de apoyo en el que se sienten seguros para expresarse. Mi objetivo es fomentar la confianza, no la perfección, alentando el crecimiento a través de la positividad y el juego. Adapto cada lección al estilo de aprendizaje del niño, celebro todos los progresos (grandes o pequeños) y corrijo suavemente los errores como parte natural del aprendizaje. En el centro de mi enseñanza está la creencia de que el verdadero objetivo del aprendizaje de idiomas es la comunicación. Ayudo a los niños a expresarse con claridad, a conectar con los demás y a adquirir confianza en situaciones del mundo real.
Las clases son sólo para niños (de 4 a 12 años).
La duración de las clases es de 25, 40 ó 55 minutos.
Es necesario avisar con 24 horas de antelación para cancelar o reprogramar.Mi material didáctico
