À propos de moi
Professeur italki depuis le 19 Sep 2017Sujets d'intérêtFinanceSportLectureTechnologieVoyages
I'm an experienced TESOL certified English teacher and I'm currently teaching on Italki full time. I enjoy it and I'm not planning to stop. I have worked with students of all ages while focusing on different objectives. I've helped them prepare for IELTS and other official English exams and achieve desired scores. My background is in IT and I have worked as a software engineer and programmer/developer in Canadian business environment for many years. Many of my students are business professionals, IT engineers predominantly, as I understand both business and technical terminology. I speak fluent Spanish and decent Portuguese which might be helpful to Spanish or Portuguese speaking students.Moi en tant que professeur
Offering proactive and engaging lessons that are structured but fun. I understand hi-tech terminology and can help you reach your professional career goals.
I listen to my students as their requirements and needs are the most important to me. I prepare for each class carefully based on collected information. My classes can be focused on conversation, slang expressions, specific grammar topic, interview practice, or exam preparation. I understand what it takes to learn a language and I try to make sure that the class time is well spent.Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
Talking about my teaching technique, as every student is different, every English class with me is different as well. Which teaching methodology is used will depend largely on you and your needs. I use improvisations and lively discussions about various topics. Humour is part of my classes as I want you to have fun as you learn. My teaching approach incorporates using natural language acquisition methods and teaching culture differences that goes along with teaching the language.Mes ressources d'enseignement

I had the pleasure of taking my first class with Steve today on Italki, and I must say, his reputation as an experienced English teacher is well-earned. Even in our initial session, his expertise was evident, particularly in how he incorporated his background in IT and business into our discussions.
Steve teaches in a friendly and professional way. In our first lesson, he wanted to know what I wanted to learn. I feel good about learning more with him.
I would highly recommend Steve to anyone on Italki, especially if you're in the IT or business sector.

Awesome class! Steve has an incredible gift for teaching. He can identify exactly what do you need to adjust to have a better English. He is always taking notes to not interrupt you and correct your mistakes after you finish the sentence, in this way, the conversation flows much better. I was already an intermediate/advanced student, but I learned something from every class, plus had a lot of fun doing it!
