InterestsSportReizenHistory

I grew up in California, but I have lived outside of the United States since I was 22. I enjoy learning languages and I can generally adjust pretty well to different cultural situations. I am an outdoor enthusiast, and in particular I enjoy hiking and kayaking, but playing basketball is also fun. When I'm at home, I enjoy reading (mostly non-fiction) and cooking (mostly Asian food). I have taught English for ten years in three different countries: Taiwan, Germany and Turkey. Each place presented students with contrasting learning styles and in each place I taught learners of different levels. I find Beginners fun to teach because I can play games and address a variety of useful language topics with them, but more advanced learners are also appealing simply because we can cover a greater variety of real-world material. I acquired a CELTA certificate in 2015, and currently I am working on the DELTA. My style of teaching is very student-centered, and my goal in each lesson is for the students to produce as much as possible with whatever content we are learning. I believe in a task-based approach in which the students can learn through doing while the teacher facilitates and guides them. I often use pictures, charts or videos to help illustrate word meanings or to provide a context, and I try to avoid straight-forward lecturing. However, if students do need grammar points explained to them, I can do so concisely and provide quick and useful examples.

跟随Peter老师学习已经有大半年的时间，Peter老师每一次都能够针对我的语言学习过程中的薄弱环节给与针对性与成长性的建议，不得不说，这半年的时间我的成长是显著并且持续的。每一次的课程，Peter都会为我准备专属的资料，涵盖语言学习的听说读写等各个方面，每一次的课程，不仅是语言的习得更是学科思维的渗透，如果时间允许我会一直跟随Peter老师学习下去，发现自己在语言上更多的可能。
