About Me
italki teacher since May 8, 2020Me as a Teacher
I began my teaching career in a local high school teaching senior History and junior Social Studies for five years. While playing cricket in England for two seasons I also taught Key Stage 3 History close to London. After this I moved to China and taught senior English and oral English to junior students. I have already been teaching online to children, teenagers and adults for over two years now, sometimes solo and sometimes together with a full time teaching job, and I absolutely love it.
Right now my main job is as an IB History and English teacher for a school in Ambato, Ecuador, although I'm doing this remotely due to the Covid world. My lessons & teaching style
I have taught all ages across many disciplines. This has ranged from small children and having fun with songs and learning vocabulary, to teaching grammar and essays to senior students and adults. Above all though my teaching style is to relate to you and the world we know to help gain understanding. My teaching style is upbeat and fun. I can be super slow, structured and deliberate, or I can be conversational and free-form. Whatever your desire I can adapt to no problem.
If it matters to you and you're wondering why - my lesson price for a qualified and highly experienced teacher is so low as Italki is my third job for a little extra cash.My teaching material
