Sobre mim
Professor da italki desde 5 de May de 2024Tópico de interesseTecnologiaMúsicaAmbiente & NaturezaFinançasFilmes
Heya! My name's Cliff and I'm originally from Atlanta, Georgia (U.S.).
In 2009 I moved to Almería, Spain to bring about some change in my life and I've happily lived here ever since then.
When I'm not working I spend time with my 2-year old daughter, go rock climbing, play in a few bands and do my best to keep fit through functional training and exercise!
**Regarding my availability: Currently italki does not seem to offer calendar synchronization which doesn't allow me to properly show my availability on italki, however, I offer lessons from 8am to 6pm Madrid (CET, UTC+1). If this suits your schedule, please send me a message and we can work out scheduling a slot for you!Minha atuação como professor
I started off as a language assistant in high schools in Almería where I learned different techniques about how to communicate with all kinds of folks learning English. Over the past 15 years I have had the pleasure of gaining experience at academies all over Almería as well as the Centro de Lenguas at the University of Almería.Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
Overall my focus in teaching has been toward test preparation for Cambridge Exams (A2-C2), British Council Aptis, EOI (España), TOEFL, IELTS, SLP and many other exams students need to take. I also worked as an oral examiner for 6 years.
Beyond test preparation I am fond of conversation classes. I love hearing about my student's lives and helping them to improve their communication through topic based conversation. I'm an avid listener of the radio and podcasts and I find it important to stay up-to-date with the news and current events in the US, Europe and all over the world.
Moreover, I also work as an unofficial interpreter for British expats living in Spain.Meu material de ensino
