Hello! My name is Tom. I'm an English teacher from Atlanta, USA. I've also lived and worked in Istanbul for four years and Mexico City for one year. I have a degree in Applied Linguistics and received a TEFL certificate as part my university program. My hobbies include reading, cycling, weight training, and learning languages. In addition to being a native speaker of English, I speak Spanish, Turkish, and Latin at an intermediate level. My interests include history, literature, computers, and current affairs.教学经验
Seven years of teaching has given me a great width and depth of experience. I've taught every level of English to students from ages three to seventy-five. Most of my students have been Turkish or Chinese, but many have also come from Poland, Saudi Arabia, Colombia, Mexico, France, and Germany. I've also taught business English to corporate clients and helped students prepare for tests, job interviews, and visa interviews.我提供的课程和我的教学风格
The most effective lessons tend to focus on texts and/or pictures about one of the student's personal interests. The text should be somewhat challenging, but ideally not below 90% comprehensibility. I have the student read the text aloud or describe the picture, then I ask questions about it. I define any unknown words and phrases either with images or an explanation in English. I'll then lead a discussion on the topic in which I try to draw out the student's own opinions and experiences.
Although I prefer to teach in a communicative manner, my education gives me a strong foundation in grammar, so I can answer any questions a student might have on that topic.我的教学资料
