About Me
italki teacher since Apr 17, 2020
Hello everyone! My name is Matt, and I am fully licensed TESOL certified English Teacher and NATIVE speaker from Toronto, Canada. I am also an entrepreneur. I have a side business in which I buy and resell vintage clothing. My hobbies include dancing, cooking, making music, and exercising. I have been teaching English since 2019. I started my journey in China, where I taught middle school and kindergarten in Jiangsu and Beijing, respectively. I started teaching online to adults from around the world and I absolutely love doing it!
Me as a Teacher
Hello everyone! I'm Matt, a fully licensed TESOL certified English Teacher and NATIVE speaker from Toronto, Canada. Furthermore, I am an entrepreneur, dancer, musician, and have work experience in business and marketing. I am here to help you improve your Conversational English, Business English, Accent, Writing, Interview Skills (business, academic proofreading and other, including e-mails, websites and ad copy), North American English pronunciation (my speciality), and much more!
My lessons & teaching style
I believe that having a conversation in a relaxed environment is crucial, when it comes to levelling up one's speaking skills. I recommend that you request topics that interest you. If we are not having conversation practice, if requested, I can send you some learning material before the class. This may include:
- A Power Point including several topics we use and talk about together
- Short videos discussing various subjects
- News articles
- A list of conversational vocab, transitional words, idoms, etc
Your errors will be noted on a word document during each lesson. You will be given a list of vocab you need to work on for our next session.
Homework will be given if requested.
