About Me
italki teacher since Dec 17, 2019Me as a Teacher
Having lived in three countries in my lifetime, I love meeting new people from different cultures and exchanging knowledge.
My classes will maximise on this, so you can expect lessons which consists of a lot of verbal exchange between us!
Whilst pursuing my degrees in Law and English, I started a crochet business which honed my organizational and time management skills. I nurtured my love for creativity to become a business and my love for the English language to become an Honours degree. This nurturing quality is what I believe would make me an effective teacher as I will be patient enough to invest time and energy in improving your English skills. My lessons & teaching style
I believe that every student is the ideal student if they are provided with the ideal environment. An ideal environment is one which evolves with and depends on the students’ learning style and one of our first tasks will be to establish your learning style so that I am able to create the best learning environment for you.
I plan on taking full advantage of the digital age we live in by making use of platforms where we will explore texts, movies and series to maximise language acquisition. Since it is often said that language is not learnt, it is acquired, my aim will be to expose you to a wide variety of mediums of language to improve your reading, writing, listening and speaking skills.My teaching material
