I am from Louisiana in the United States (ask me about Louisiana food! ^_^) and am a graduate student in Economics at the University of Colorado, where I love to ski, play with my new corgi puppies, and read. I am working on my PhD in Economics while studying Japanese, and I have Bachelor's degrees in French, Philosophy, and Economics. I have lived in New Zealand, France, and Japan, and have traveled to many more places, so be sure to ask! I have taught at University and in Japan, where I taught about half children's classes and half adults.
지도 경험
I have taught for four years, three years at the university level in the United States and one year as an English instructor in Japan. As an English instructor, I taught all ages and levels, from three years old,to high school and university students studying for exams or to study abroad, to business-people hoping to get a promotion or do business overseas, to retirees wanting some fun. For parents, I have taught children privately from ages 6-18 as well as in classes. I also taught high level classes with my company on writing and public speaking. I truly enjoy teaching and want to make good use of my time at Italki to meet many new people and help them learn!
내 강의 및 지도 스타일
My lessons are highly flexible depending on the student, though it would be nice if the student had at least some training in English beforehand. If students speak Japanese or French, I can help you if you are at a lower level. My lessons are mainly conversational. For lower level students we can work through different basic conversation topics while keeping track of basic vocabulary, grammar, and expressions. For high level students we can work through and discuss news and online articles and practice writing. For those at a much higher level we can work on slang, word origin, and intonation. For anyone who would like to have long running courses and homework assignments, I can provide.

It was a good first class with Payne. He is very attentive and supportive, also he knows how to keep the conversation going even when I was struggling with some words.
