O mnie
Nauczyciel italki od 23 Jul 2021
I am returning to the ESL profession after a fulfilling career in alternative dispute resolution. I am a qualified mediator in the field of restorative justice. I bring to all my professional activities a rich understanding of how to help people who are dealing with change. I draw from my background as a published writer, broadcaster, musician, and music critic. I also have a master’s degree in fine arts. In my first career as a musician, the comfort I developed with performing in front of audiences has been a benefit throughout my working life. For example, I was a popular freelance broadcaster and music critic for CBC Radio.
Ja jako nauczyciel
I am an accredited teacher of English as a second language. My wish is to recognize and empower newcomers to Canada, as well as global citizens, who wish to express themselves in English. A natural teacher, I am well-liked by students of diverse backgrounds. I was a popular coach and mentor to many aspiring mediators.
Moje lekcje & Styl nauczania
I believe that a lesson should meet the student at a place where he or she is comfortable, and then should engage with material chosen to stimulate curiosity and build capacity, according to the student's needs and capabilities. My style features an emphasis on my listening skills and my empathy, leading to a shared process bringing the student to a new place of understanding and practical skill. I use activities, games, and music, depending on the individual. I believe that good humour is always important.

Just from the trial lesson, I could already tell that John is really experienced in teaching and knows how to communicate well with non-native speakers. John is also really culturally aware, which helps a lot. When it comes to interview prep, John guides you to think in a strategic and logical way and points out the most important areas to work on. There was also a super clear and helpful demonstration of how to actually do it.
