Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 5. Feb 2020
I live in Melbourne Australia. I am a mother and grandmother but now live quietly in my own apartment in the city centre. My family includes three wonderful adult children, two sons and a daughter, their partners plus a granddaughter and a grandson. I enjoy travelling, reading, movies, current affairs, walking, swimming and of course spending time with family and friends. I volunteer with a charity, helping to raise funds and make blankets for children in need.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I am a registered school teacher and also have qualifications to teach English as a Foreign Language and Business English.
Since I retired from classroom teaching, I have taught English to students in China, Poland, Romania, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland.
I would like to focus my online teaching on Conversational English.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I have an informal teaching style based on conversation and building confidence.
I can be flexible and adapt to the needs and requirements of individual students.
Talking with each other to improve understanding or practice discussing topics students request.
I think building confidence is an essential part of learning a language.
We will be able to focus on improving your English understanding and pronunciation.
Thank you for our first English lesson and for all the resources you gave me already. That's very helpful. I am looking forward to our next lesson next week.Best wishes Franziska
