Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 20 Jan 2022InterestsHistoryArtEnvironment & NatureReizenReading
I am originally from New York City and was educated in New England at Northfield Mount Hermon School, Brown University, and the Rhode Island School of Design, where I earned both BFA and MFA degrees.
I have been an international English tutor for many years and have worked exclusively online since 2015. I hold professional certifications in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and CTBE (Business English) from ITTT.
I currently live in Indonesia with my Chinese-Indonesian wife, our two dogs, and extended family nearby. In addition to teaching, I am an active writer and painter, and I enjoy thoughtful conversation, cultural exchange, and helping students express themselves clearly andIk als leerkracht
I have over thirty years of experience as an international teacher. I am a lifelong leraner and I do my best to pass that love of learning on to my students. Some students have been with me for over eight years. Advanced students benefit from discussions about many topics. Recently I have started discussing essays from the Atlantic Monthly, The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books, and The New York Times. I explain the vocabulary and the meaning the writer is communicating. My interest is in creating a continuing online friendship with advanced students. It is valuable for both of us! Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My teaching style is personal and proactive. I engage every student and get to know them. I basically use the ESA (engage, study, activate) approach I studied in my TEFl certification class. I am also certified in Business English with TEFL. To begin I have the students make a short introductory speech so I can evaluate their level of competency. Then, I identify problems and begin to address them. I believe in a combined approach, emphasizing a good deal of speaking practice but also grammar exercises and homework. I expect students to make an effort and have at least a working knowledge of English. Their commitment to learning is the most important quality I look for in them.Mijn lesmateriaal

It was a very pleasant introductory lesson. Ricker showed me which parts of my English needed improvement and gave me interesting tips on how to achieve it. All this within an interesting conversation in which we talked about many topics
