À propos de moi
Professeur italki depuis le 28 Nov 2025Sujets d'intérêtScienceFilmsEnvironnement et natureFinanceVoyages
I have lived in Ecuador for many years, and so know quite a lot of Spanish. This has helped me to teach and help Spanish students to improve their English quickly.
I have an English accent, which the students in this continent seem to love !
Students from anywhere else in the world are also welcome !
I am very dedicated to my students learning journey, butt I like to make it fun for everyone.Moi en tant que professeur
I have a lot of patience as a teacher. I have been teaching professionals at work as well as younger students. The best way for me to teach is to understand what the students need with their English. Classes can be taught to fit these individual needs. Classes need to have variety, and it is very important to keep the students interested. Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
I try and keep the classes as relaxed as possible. To get to personally know the students and give them as much confidence as possible in their English. The students learn the best through as much talking practice as possible, covering as wide a range as subjects/topics as possible. It is important to not continually correct every mistake, but to let the students learn. The more relaxed and confident they are, the more they are learning, in the long run.
I can help to prepare for standardized tests, such as TOEFL.Mes ressources d'enseignement

I really enjoy the classes with Leigh. He is very focused on the class and helps me a lot with vocabulary, phrasal verbs, idioms - which helps me express my ideas better.
He is super friendly and encourages conversations on different topics. He also explains everything in such an amazing way that makes learning truly enjoyable and fun :)
