Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 15. Apr 2020
I was born and raised in Portsmouth, an hour away from London, and have lived there almost my entire life. I am a very down to Earth type of guy. I love learning languages, travelling and gaining cultural insights, mountain biking, martial arts, music, and weightlifting. I like to combine my hobbies with one another, particularly with language learning. It's great finding a new favourite film, book, or piece of music that I would otherwise not have known, had I not attempted to learn the language whence it comes. I have a TEFL and a TESOL, and love teaching all facets, from IELTS conversation to business and general conversations. I love learning about different cultures.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I love teaching conversational English and helping students practise the conversational elements of the IELTS exam. I am very easy to talk to, and will always adapt to the topic in question. I have a neutral British accent, which is very easy to understand. I have completed a 150 hour TESOL course as well as a 120 hour TEFL course, and have taught online and in person for several years. Patience is a key attribute of mine, so there is absolutely no need to feel embarrassed if you are struggling with anything. I like to remind students of their progress and help them stay motivated rather than let them dwell on any nuances they have not yet mastered.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
The emphasis is always on the student. You pick the topic and we will go from there. I will always point out mistakes in a manner that will not discourage you and will give you different ways of using what you already know. I use SRS (Spaced repetition systems) to acquire new vocabulary as well as reading. I am more than happy to do so with you, too.
I am also more than happy to help with pronunciation, reading, writing practise, informal/formal situations/role play, etc. I will always type corrections while you are talking and will explain them once you have finished, so that you do not lose your flow. I will and do correct all mistakes; writing, pronunciation, sentence structure, etc.
I have been studying English with Chris for 3 or 3,5 months. He is a patient, flexible and smart guy. He also supports and helps me constantly. I lost my fear of English at the first meeting. It allows speaking without any worries and opens to me new horizons in English learning.
