About Me

italki teacher since Jun 27, 2017

Hello. My name is Richard, and I live in the far south of England. Specifically, I live on the Isle of Wight, which is a small island in the English Channel, between England and France. I am very passionate about communication, and learning new ways to improve my communication skills, which is why I am here on Italki. I enjoy learning languages, like many of you I suppose, so I spend almost all of my time studying.

Me as a Teacher

My favourite thing to teach is communication. When learning a new language, there are some problems people might run into: connotations, culture, exactly how we think, formality etc. As a teacher, I aim to teach students how to communicate with English-speaking people. I can teach communication in most settings, whether formal or informal, but my speciality is general, everyday conversation.

My lessons & teaching style

I have two main types of lessons: grammar lessons, and conversational lessons. Grammar lessons focus on the construction of different types of English sentences, allowing the student to practice with new constructions and use them to communicate ideas. Conversational lessons focus on the student's ability to improvise, as I firmly believe that improvisation is the most important skill for communication. Grammar lessons will be done with grammar books and worksheets if needed. The worksheets can be produced by me if necessary; just ask! The conversational lessons use two ebooks: one of them has easy, everyday questions, whereas the second has harder questions.

By no means it could be described as dull, second-rate or middling. The sipirits were high, Richard is a first-class communicator and the overall impression of the lesson- it was superb. Time to book the next one!
