About Me
italki teacher since May 6, 2019
I am a Native English Speaker with a Northern American Accent. I am from the New York State area but I have lived all over the East Coast and I currently live in Florida, USA and have been here for about 6 years. I prefer the beach over snow and I've traveled to many tropical locations! Ask me about my recent travels and I'll tell you about Mexico, Puerto Rico, Ireland, France, Monaco, Italy and Hawaii, among many more places, like Canada and Las Vegas! I enjoy talking about daily life, sports, business and finance as well as country living and city living, around the world. Many of my friends are from other countries so I'm familiar with language barriers and I know that I can help you!
Me as a Teacher
I am a fun, relaxed and friendly teacher.
I teach: Business English, Conversation Practice, Idioms for Professionals and Daily Life, Slang and Grammar. I also can help with TOEFL and IELTS prep and have some great online resources for students who want to practice speaking and answering questions.
I have been a teacher for about 10 years and my first student was actually my younger brother and he wanted me to teach him Guitar. After that, my wife and I opened our own Music Academy and I had my own business as a Private Guitar Teacher and I decided to teach English a few years later because I have fun teaching my foreign friends. I'm in finance and my BA is in Video Production.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are fun, relaxed and I have an easy way of explaining something. I like to teach my students how to listen to fast speakers and how to listen to the Northern American Accent, through my speaking style. I use online resources, links and examples of Daily Life so that my students can relate, have good context, and remember! I want my students to feel comfortable using English, and with me, you'll feel better prepared and ready to SPEAK confidently on ANY subject. My students feel like they can ask me anything about American Culture and please tell me if you'd like to be corrected through typing or verbal corrections and I can help you see where we can make your English more fluent.
