Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 12 Jul 2019Interest topicScienceReizenFood
📢 Classes resume March 6. Last classes until further notice: April 25.
My name is Trevor, I am from New York, and I live in Boston when I am not travelling. 大家好！我的名字是康明，来自纽约，不旅行的时候住在波士顿。I am a native speaker of standard American English accent, and I specialize in pronunciation and grammar. 我的英文发音标准并且清晰易懂，专长是发音和语法。 I teach all levels of English and beginner/intermediate levels of Mandarin. 我教所有水平的英语还有初级和中级汉语。
If you would like teacher-prepared content, please select an intensive course. 你需要我准备材料的话，请预订一个速成班。 If you prefer to prepare your own lesson content or have informal conversation, please pick “informal tutoring” or “unstructured conversation.” 如果更想自己准备或者跟我闲谈来练习英文，请选「闲谈练习」或者「非正式辅导」。

I value the following features of language lessons and try to employ them in the lessons I teach: 我爱惜以下的语言教育特点，所以每节课里我利用这些方法。
-Practice and repetition, emphasizing intuition over rote memorization. 练习和重复
-Learning new words and grammar structures in context. 用语境来背生词和语法
-Being able to use and understand both formal and informal speech. 用正式和非正式的课文
-Using English as much as possible, when possible, to help teach/learn English. 多用英文，少用中文
-Practice and listening of speech presented at various speeds (slower when you first start out, and then faster as you begin to master basic words, sentences, and structures, as appropriate). 为了让你练习听力和给你合适挑战 ，我会调整我的语速。Mijn lesmateriaal

We adhere to the definition of Hyperpolyglots as preferred by the general consensus to mean “a person who is fluent in six or more languages.” However, we expand our association to include persons who are conversant in eight or more languages. Although small, our association boasts some of the most talented emerging linguists worldwide.

Werkervaring
2014 - 2016
9th/12th Grade TeacherThis job gave me direct experience preparing and instructing lessons in a group class format to ages 14-17. I learned a ton about how to effectively format lessons to students who are struggling with acquiring new content and differentiating lesson structure to meet the needs of a wide variety of levels.
2016 - 2022
At-Home TutorI have worked as an at-home one-on-one tutor for the past three years where I help students who are struggling with their classes, or are homeschooled, or need help preparing for an upcoming standardized exam. This experience has taught me a lot about how to meet students at their specific needs and tailor lessons based on what students find most difficult and what students could use the best practice on. It also has given me practice on how to properly pace for and assess student understanding.
2012 - 2020
Fitness InstructorInstructor of group and private fitness classes (aerial circus arts). This has given me lots of opportunity to develop my ability to connect with clients and provide customized lesson plans and instruction.
