About Me
italki teacher since Mar 22, 2019Me as a Teacher
I never enjoyed learning languages until I taught myself. I discovered the reason for this was because teaching strategies my teachers used were incompatible with my learning style and they did very little to motivate me. This made learnimg hard. Once I saw just how enjoyable and easy it could be to learn language with the right attitude and methods, I decided to start teaching English. I acquired a bachelor’s degree in education, a CELTA certificate, 2 TEFL certificates and a licence to teach. I have also taught general purpose English, business English and academic English to all ages and at all levels from beginner to advanced level and to students from around the world for over 5 years. My lessons & teaching style
Many students tell me they are too busy, slow, old or unmotivated to learn English - my teaching style enables me to find solutions to these problems. Firstly, I never follow a strict timetable or curriculum even when it comes to grammar lessons, because I know that all my students learn differently. I teach my lessons to match individual pace and learning style. I instil confidence in my students from day one by giving them many opportunities to practise English, giving my feedback during or after the activity. I ensure that my lessons are always productive by paying careful attention to my learners’ needs. I also make my lessons as fun and lively as possible to keep my students motivated.My teaching material

I just had another great lesson with Kai. He's a really good and participative teacher. I recommend to everyone to take some class with him.

We worked on concrete practice documents, working on my formulations and pronunciation. The lessons helped me a lot for my practical work in management to present topics.

I really enjoyed our first lesson and was impressed by how good a teacher Kai is. He gives valuable feedback, pays attention to everything you say, taking notes of every mistake you make. Also, I found his suggested exercises very interesting. You can easily tell he knows what he is doing. Thank you again!
