About Me
italki teacher since Oct 26, 2016Me as a Teacher
I find teaching to be an opportunity to share my variety of experiences with others. I try to help my students to not only achieve their goals, but also to go above and beyond their capabilities. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons and teaching style vary from student to student. The major part of my lessons are conversation-based lessons, offering corrections in speech, pronunciation, accents, and grammar when needed. For beginner to lower-level students, I try to always include a grammar section in my lessons, relative to the subject when possible.My teaching material

This is my first lesson with the teacher. It was comfortable. Everything is good. I am afraid to speak. But with D.J it’s not scary. I did not feel the difference between the level of language proficiency. He chose words that are familiar to me. I don’t know how he does it.
Thanks a lot. I'll wait for our next lesson.

D.j. is a 10-star tutor! He’s very personable and patient. My biggest need in English is to speak the language and our lesson was fun and entirely focused on conversation. I’m a very demanding student and I’ve been testing him to see if he was able to show me grammar rules. I’ve been studying English for more than 20 years now, but for the first time I feel I’ve finally found an amazing teacher. Needless to say I plan to continue lessons with him. Thank you so much, D.j. I look forward to the next lesson. :)
