About Me
italki teacher since Feb 20, 2017Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I have experience teaching both adults and children. I started teaching in 2005, with an English as a Second Language program in France, and since then I have spent more than a decade teaching at the university level in the United States and several years teaching younger students at the K-12 level, primarily in middle school and high school. Currently, I have students as young as 9 years old all the way to professional adults who are interested in language lessons. My lessons & teaching style
All of my lessons are custom designed for the individual student. In our first meeting, we will discuss your goals and what I can help you with. From there, I'll create a lesson plan that is just for you, using the best educational theory and active learning styles that I'm familiar with. My overall intent is to have an engaging, interesting course that is conversational, well-structured, and successful in helping you achieve your language goals.My teaching material

My first lesson was extremely agreeable. I especially enjoyed all the historical tidbits, as history has always been a favorite study of mine. By no means am I an expert in history-- but who knows with more future lessons, I might just acquire a plentitude of new historical knowledge other than Latin. I so am looking forward to my next lesson, and until then I shall enjoy some Latin reading. Thank you again for such a wonderul lesson.
