(请使用Italki聊天窗口或Skype预订课程。 微信没有屏幕共享功能。 谢谢！) Growing up, I'd always been fascinated with the natural world, space travel, psychology, and all of the sciences. Linguistics was a good fit for those interests. From my teens into college I enjoyed break dancing, martial arts, and meditation. I've lived most of my adult life up to this point in China. Fortunately, I actually enjoy my work as an English teacher. I'm excited to see some of my old students joining me for online sessions, as well as to meet new students and help them to acquire English.Ik als leerkracht
I'm a career language educator and have taught English in China for over 10 years. I Studied linguistics (language science) and I'm always on the look out for tools and techniques that work in the classroom. I'm very motivated to work with my students to figure out the best path to their English proficiency goals. I see these online lessons as a great opportunity to apply what I've learned at university and in the language-teaching field. I tend to be more effective without a big bureaucracy telling me what works best for them. I want us to use what works best for us! Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
The Input Method is what gets the best results out there, so that's what I've used to sculpt my teaching style, and that's what we'll use together. You may feel like your shyness is holding you back, but most often, I've found, students' don't get enough compelling, comprehensible input. Once you get enough, then you'll naturally start to volunteer more and more in conversations. One of the best sources of input is reading for pleasure. An hour with a good novel is more effective than two hours in an ESL grammar class. If you're not quite up to book club level, going through picture books while asking and answering questions and using lots of TPR can work wonders in getting you there.Mijn lesmateriaal

Kindergarten Teachers and Teacher TrainerI brought what I'd learned about babies and language to small classrooms in Sichuan. The goal was to get the babies comfortable listening to and playing in English, so they'd be more receptive to the language when starting school and reading. We were very successful with the babies and families willing to try.
