About Me
italki teacher since Jan 14, 2017Interest topicHistoryMusicFilms & TV SeriesFoodTravel
I am a passionate teacher of English online, even though it is not my native language. I’ve been an online English teacher since 2010. I have teaching experience with both children and adults. I have a master’s degree in education from the University of Wroclaw, Poland, Philology, Linguistics Jul 1974.
I lived in California for almost ten years. In 2000 I became an American citizen.
I enjoy music, connecting with people worldwide, and learning and teaching languages.
After 40 years of teaching, I grew into an experienced online professional tutor. I specialize in Conversational English.Me as a Teacher
I have extensive experience teaching English for general and specific purposes (academic, business, medicine, project-based and problem-solving, developing soft skills) and preparing students for Cambridge exams (KET, PET, FCE, CAE, CPE) and IELTS.
I am very familiar with the latest resources and achievements in teaching English. I have a lot of experience using the latest computer and internet programs, making my classes exciting and interactive.
My advantage is also extensive experience of traveling abroad on many continents, and thus a high level of cultural sensitivity and awareness. I holistically convey knowledge, pay attention to the language itself, develop.My lessons & teaching style
About Halina's teaching,
I am a passionate Polish speaker of the Foreign Language and an English teacher from Poland. Teaching is a considerable portion of my lifetime. With that understanding, I am a lifelong learner.
Technology gives us many new possibilities. I prefer blended learning, taking advantage of traditional face-to-face techniques and the opportunities presented by novel technologies.
My students learn to sing phrases and expressions, tell stories, and create authentic language situations. I have an individual approach to the client's openness to his needs and priorities.
Personal commitment and excellent understanding of the processes related to learning a foreign language.My teaching material

English TeacherIn the classroom, technology can encompass all sorts of devices from low-tech pencil, newspaper publisher, and chalkboard, to the utilization of presentation software, or high-tech tablets, online collaboration, and conferencing tools, and more. The new technologies allow us to try things in physical and virtual classrooms that were not possible before. What you use depends fundamentally on what you are attempting to reach.
