About Me
italki teacher since Feb 24, 2020Me as a Teacher
I really loved being an English teacher in Japan and continue to love teaching here on italki, helping people of all ages from all over the world become confident in the English language.
I am dedicated to supporting my students on their language journey and adapting my lessons to their specific needs. I am a true believer in learning natural English rather than robotic English that is taught in textbooks alone.
I understand that learning a new language can become boring and stressful, but I aim to make sure lessons are exciting, fun and enjoyable. I hope that my students look forward to their lessons with me. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons depend on my student. Each student learns differently and it is important to cater lessons to fit the particular style of the student. For example lessons with my students have included examination practice, vocabulary, grammar, articles, business English or discussion topics. I like my students to come out of their shell and feel confident in using English. In my lessons I usually focus on conversation practice, worksheets, pictures and flashcards.My teaching material
