About Me
italki teacher since Oct 15, 2021Interest topicSports & FitnessWritingTravel
I am an Indonesian native speaker based in Malang. Currently, I am working as an Indonesian language teacher in one of the best private universities in Indonesia. In addition, I have a background in English language teaching and I love to meet new people. I am a coffee lover who interests in sports especially football, traveling, and visits coffee shops across the globe.Me as a Teacher
Having a certificate in teaching the Indonesian language from the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia gives me an opportunity to become a professional teacher. I have experienced in teaching students from very diverse countries as well as different levels. My students came from many countries across the world such as Australia, Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Ukraine, Italy, USA, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, Sierra Leone, Gambia, Tanzania, Egypt, etc. Moreover, I am an open and flexible person so I do like to have students of different ages (young learners and adult learners) and language levels (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced).My lessons & teaching style
I usually use some personalized and customized learning materials and methods to help the students attain their learning goals, especially in one-to-one teaching. Using context-based teaching approach will boost the students' understanding of the actual language used and giving them real experiences in learning the language. I would love to have a chance to talk and discuss with you our learning material and methodology.My teaching material

Education
2007 - 2012
Bachelor’s - English Language EducationDuring my study, I focused on learning how to teach English as a foreign language. In addition, having the knowledge and experiences in the teaching method and strategy would be a positive skill in supporting the teaching and learning process.
Work Experience
2012 - 2018

2013 - 2021

Moreover, teaching Diplomats from several countries represents my professional teaching experiences.

Erasmus+ Program CoordinatorAs the coordinator for the student exchange scholarship program, I gained many experiences in intercultural communication which I believe really would help me in communicating to my future students in Italki later.
2014 - 2014
International Relations SpecialistHaving experience living abroad contributes to enhancing my perspective as an individual to be an open-minded person. I believe those experiences would significantly help me in understanding my prospective students in terms of several aspects needed in the learning process.
2015 - 2015
Community LiaisonMeeting and accompanying the volunteer from abroad to live and learn the local language, as well as the cultures, really gave me an emotional feeling where I could have a close relationship with a foreigner who even I did not know before. This emotional approach become crucial parts where it should be built with the students to engage and encourage them in learning the Indonesian language.

Guru Dimas is very patient. He waited sometimes while I struggled until I could say what I wanted to, but he also helped by supplying some vocabulary and expressions as I needed them. We had a very good discussion.

Guru Dimas gave me good feedback and guidance in the chat and I can use that later. He was very understanding when I had some trouble and encouraged me. We have a possible plan for the next lesson. I really enjoyed talking with him. He let me ask many questions which is important for my language development.
