About Me

italki teacher since Jul 9, 2014

Hello there and thank you for checking out my profile!! When I was young I played a lot of soccer (called football in British English). I loved the international culture, and this led me to study foreign languages. I then become interested in teaching English and earned a prestigious certificate (Trinity CertTESOL) in Teaching English as a Foreign Language. I love my job and love meeting students from all different cultures. I have many other hobbies and enjoy talking about lots of different subjects.

Me as a Teacher

From the beginning, you will be using the English language! You will learn using a combination of speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Lessons are focused on your needs and are created specifically to help you make quick progress. I also like to make sure you do plenty of speaking because the only effective way you can improve speaking is with a native speaker. También puedo hablar español. Por eso, si Ud. es hispanohablante y no habla mucho inglés, todavía puedo ayudarle. Siempre intento a hablar en inglés durante las clases (es así que Ud. aprende).

My lessons & teaching style

I offer formal and informal lessons. In all of my classes, I make corrections which I send to you at the end of the class. Formal classes consist of lots of activities as well as review from our previous classes, while informal classes consist of conversations from various topics. There are lots more things to say about the classes, but in conclusion, students learn a lot and have fun. If you have other questions, you're welcome to ask.

Certificates

Trinity CertTESOL - Oxford TEFL Barcelona - 2013It was a highly intensive course in which we learned effective teaching techniques, reviewed grammar, partnered with a student to write a profile about their learning style, and did a lot of teaching practice.

We talked about time. The note which Philip writes is very helpful. I can review the lesson.

Today Philip has helped me with specific vocabulary related to my job. This is very useful for me in order to avoid misunderstanding. Thanks Philip... see you soon!
