About Me
italki teacher since Nov 15, 2019Me as a Teacher
I have been involved in education since 2008 when I started working in the performing arts department of a local secondary school.
I soon moved into teaching and supporting students in English lessons, among others, and helped many children achieve their GCSEs in English Literature and English Language.
Following that, I have worked in a number of local primary schools, teaching English, Maths and Foundation subjects.
Recently I have moved into one to one tutoring of English full time. I am also a course writer for a Taiwanese English language company. I have written Practical English courses aimed at CEFR B2 and C1 levels, and am now writing an Elementary Business English course. My lessons & teaching style
The majority of my students are young learners at early beginner to intermediate level.
Lessons feature songs, movement, stories and creative activities.
Every lesson is made specifically for the child's interest and needs. I sometime use curriculum materials but I always make sure every lesson matches every child perfectly.
My years of experience and professional study have provided me with immeasurable experience in the planning and delivery of excellent lessons.
Over the years I have worked with whole classes of over 30 to individuals and small groups, ranging in age from 5 to 19, and am now excited to bring my skills, resources and knowledge to the world of one to one English tuition.My teaching material
