My name is Ian and I am from Cape Town, South Africa. I am a professional language practitioner, with 12 years experience as a copy editor, translator and proofreader. I have a wide range of interests, and enjoy learning about other countries and cultures. I enjoy communicating with people, and it brings me great joy to be of service to others.
Ik als leerkracht
I am kind and patient, with a deep understanding of the difficulties that come with learning a new language.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
In my lessons I will mostly focus on conversational English or Afrikaans. I believe that it is vitally important that the student gets as much time as possible to speak English or Afrikaans, and for that reason my role will mostly be to initiate conversation, correct any grammar or pronunciation mistakes, and enhance the student's vocabulary by covering as many topics of discussion as possible.

Keuze van de leerkracht
After each lesson with Ian you feel like you've been to a session with a psychologist. He always supports and encourages. In his lessons you feel calm as if you're talking to your best friend. His professionalism is worth mentioning separately, he explains complex things in simple terms.

Dit was 'n baie interessante les. Ek dink tradisies is fassinerend en ek probeer altyd uitvind waar hulle vandaan kom. Baie dankie. Sien jou volgende les.
