About Me

italki teacher since Jan 28, 2020

Hello! I am Lettecha from the United States. I have a TEFL and have taught ESL for over 2 years.I have visited 13 countries and lived in 2 of them. I love to cook, read, watch sports, travel and learn new languages. I love movies - especially the ones from Marvel. Pasta, turkey chili and cookies are some of my specialties. I can speak some French and visited Paris twice. The latest book I am reading is called "Quiet". I also love to learn and talk about science - especially astrophysics and neuroplasticity( how the brain can change itself).

Me as a Teacher

I have a TEFL and a Masters degree in Educational Technology. Previously, I taught english to little kids and teens in Shanghai, China. I eventually moved on to teach for a semester at a university in Shanghai. I eventually moved on to teach english in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam. Before moving to Asia, I trained former colleagues on how to use proprietary digital software for news web production. I now tutor students around the world online.

My lessons & teaching style

I like to assess the general interests of a student as a way to lead into a general conversation or guide for picking a more structured lesson. I sometimes have students read articles or poems based on their interests in order to practice pronunciation. If students are already advanced, I love to practice idioms, slang and colloquialisms so they can have a full grasp of English conversational skills. I am a very patient teacher and enjoy eliciting knowledge from students that we can further build upon. You are also welcome to bring your own material to class.
