Informazioni su di me
Insegnante di italki dal 6 Jul 2017
I was born and raised in rural Ireland in the last century, in one of the few counties (Mayo) where, alongside native English, native Gaelic in its purest form was and is still spoken. In my twenties I decided to live abroad and learn some foreign languages, including coming here to the Canaries to learn their Whistled Speech, what you and many call Silbo Gomero, and I was soon a competent whistler of speech.
Che tipo di insegnante sono
I've been successfully learning, practising and teaching languages for many years, while keeping abreast of the latest studies on language acquisition (Stephen Krashen, Steve Kauffmann. . .).
Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
After many years of teacher training (Higher Diploma in Education, in the National University of Ireland, Galway, also TEFL courses in Galway, and language training here in Spain), I also studied & still study all the old and new findings on acquisition of languages, implementing the relevant strategies into my classes, incorporating the concepts of comprehensible input and high motivation at every stage, always focusing on the students' wants and needs.

The full immersion aspect was VERY challenging for someone like me who gets extremely frustrated with myself when I make mistakes and who freezes up when I’m unsure, but Patchy was very patient with me and kept me on track, and I got more comfortable with it as we went along. We did a full hour which pushed my brain to the limit a bit, but I definitely want to continue lessons with Patchy and see how far I can get with this language.
