About Me
italki teacher since Oct 11, 2012Me as a Teacher
In 2008 I enrolled on a teacher training course in Peru and I have been teaching English ever since. I am familiar with the latest TEFL techniques and I will help you learn my language whatever your level. All you need is a little dedication and perseverance!
I love my job and I mostly teach adults but also children from age 9 upwards. I have a neutral, easily understood British accent, perfect for teaching English. I have a lot of patience and I am particularly proficient in teaching English to native Spanish speakers, but it really doesn't matter where you are from. My lessons & teaching style
The most popular class I teach is conversation. Basic / Pre-Intermediate students may find book-based courses are easier, and I use the best literature available for this.
I also teach business English and prepare students for exams (TOEFL / IELTS etc.) and job interviews. I'm trained in phonetics and correcting pronunciation is an important part of my classes.
I take very detailed notes on a shared whiteboard and I always ensure my students are speaking around 80% of the time. Every so often we go over any grammatical errors and mispronounced words. This helps my students solidify the grammar rules very quickly and highlights their problem areas.My teaching material

Highly recommended speedy CAE preparation. I am a language teacher myself and I like the sessions effective approach. Work sheets, produce a particular layout to tackle each part of the Speaking Test, and thoroughly work on grammar mistakes. Also we work on the grammar structures CAE requires. I am very satisfied. Many Thanks!

This session was an excellent one, and I've benefited from this class and the teacher has a charm way to break the ice and the shyness of the student
