About Me
italki teacher since Dec 23, 2019Me as a Teacher
I have almost 20 years teaching experience. I have the TEFL certificate. I have taught all levels and ages in Taiwan, Japan, China and to foreign students in California, USA.
One of my favorite things is to have fun conversation about interesting subjects and I am good at coming up with subjects and topics. I am also good at exercises directed specifically at 'listening' or 'speaking'. I am very good at teaching grammar to all levels and advanced aspects such as idioms, manner of speech and phrasal verbs to advanced students. My lessons & teaching style
I usually come up with interesting subjects and initiate conversation. I will stop you to correct you at a level and frequency that you are comfortable with. Sometimes this is necessary since many have picked up bad habits and this can be one of the best ways to make progress.
I have a number of books in pdf form that I can share with you.
I have techniques to help with improving pronunciation.
I usually do not teach children younger than 13. I only work with children who are able to talk about mature, adult-type topics.
If your level is below A2, please message me first. I need to be sure that we have some good basics in order to be able to have a conversation lesson.My teaching material

It was an interesting lesson where we talked about some of the things we're into. Would definitely like to schedule another lesson to hear about Mr. Greg's interesting travel stories.

We had a great conversation with Greg, we discussed the current situation with covid in our countries and lots of other topics. Greg is genuinely interested in the discussion which makes it really comfortable. I'm definitely interested in having more classes and work on my pronunciation, word usage and grammar.
Я искренне советую Грега для всех, кто хочет улучшить свой английский. Его английский очень легко понятен, но в то же время позволяет лучше понять структуру речи носителей. При этом он постоянно задаёт вопросы и проявляет искренний интерес к беседе.
我们与Greg进行了精彩的交谈，我们与covid讨论了我们国家的现状以及许多其他主题。 格雷格对讨论真正感兴趣，这使讨论变得非常轻松。 我绝对有兴趣开设更多课程并从事我的发音，单词用法和语法方面的工作。
