Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 30. Jun 2018
I'm Emma, I love to teach English, particularly pronunciation!
Although I'm originally from North Wales in the UK I've lived in London, Manchester, Melbourne, Madrid and now Normandy, France! Where I run my own business partnering with professionals who need to communicate their ideas in English.
I work with NGOs, TV production Companies, Photographers, Interior Designers and entrepreneurs.
I help you to craft your personality in English, choosing what and how you share your message, making sure you are confident and energised about communication.
Ich als Lehrkraft
7 years ago I didn't want to be a teacher, my dad was already the 4th generation of teachers in my family and it seemed too boring!
Then I did the CELTA course in Chiang-Mai and was hooked.
I LOVE my job, there is nothing more exciting than helping my students to reach the 'ahaa!' moment where they respond in English without translating.
I love the variety of jobs they have and problem solving together,
for example:
- Prepping for a secret Netflix pitch
- Writing descriptions of their artwork
- Preparing for a webinar with the Economist (involved stalking on youtube)
- Analysing the accents of different clients to better understand them
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
- Authentic materials, which means a variety of podcasts and youtube videos for listening.
- Reading material comes from websites and blogs designed for native speakers.
- Preparation for the real world, my students don't have nasty surprises when they go to use their English in practise.
- We use real people speaking and a variety of accents from day one so that you are confident wherever you go every if someone is using expressions you don't understand, you will be able to work out the meaning.
- The speed you learn at depends on the effort and time you put in, we start with small assignments and then add more when you have available time and have established good habits!
Just had another great lesson with Emma! She’s helping me to prepare for my PhD defense and she’s not only been incredibly helpful and supportive but also very generous with her input and advice. Emma is so intelligent and well-read, I’m learning so much!
