Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 23. Mar 2021
Hello! My name is Tammy and I am from the UK. I grew up in north east England and now I live near Leeds, in beautiful Yorkshire.
I studied BA English Language and MSc Applied Linguistics at university. After that I became an English language teacher in 2008 and I have taught English in Spain, Italy, Portugal and the UK.
I'm passionate about music, food and travel. I love learning about other peoples' interests and lives, and all about their home countries. I have also studied Portuguese and German, so I know how it feels to be the student!
Ich als Lehrkraft
I specialise in:
*Pronunciation; I have a great passion for phonetics and speech coaching. I can help you to produce the sounds of English and connect your words to sound more fluent.
*Exam preparation (eg. IELTS); I have trained as a speaking and writing examiner for several English language tests.
*Academic English; I have taught in several UK universities, helping students to adapt to using English in academic contexts (writing essays, giving presentations, listening to lectures and reading academic texts).
*General English; I have taught general English for over 13 years, focusing on grammar, vocabulary and all skill areas (reading, writing, speaking, listening).
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I am a patient and friendly teacher. I will use the first lesson to understand your current level and find out about your hopes and goals for improving your English.
In each lesson we'll look at some new vocabulary and grammar and then we'll enjoy conversations while I encourage you to use the new language. I will provide you with exercises created especially for you to help you understand things and correct your errors. We'll usually do some reading and listening practice too.
If you're getting ready to take an exam, we will work on your language and do practice exam tasks in the lessons.
I'll give a little bit of homework each lesson (or a lot if you prefer!).
