About Me

italki teacher since Feb 14, 2021

Hi everyone, I am twenty-five years old and am living in Plymouth. I enjoy reading, especially about history I hold two degrees in History as well as a Level 5 TEFL Qualification. I love listening to music especially 60s pop but also hard rock, a bit of everything really. I also enjoy talking about classical literature as well as more modern books. I am in the process of learning Italian, which has been my objective during the past year and I hope to share some of the techniques I have used in helping you to speak English and gain confidence.

Me as a Teacher

I have a level 5 TEFL Qualification, which I obtained in March, and have taught private one on one lessons to several students, with a variety of different goals since March of 2020

My lessons & teaching style

I believe strongly in learning through doing, in my lessons we will mainly focus on speaking, listening, and some reading. I agree that grammar is important, but should be learned slowly and only when needed. There is no point overwhelming the beginner with loads of boring grammar drills in tenses that you will never use. Instead in my lessons, we will focus on speaking and listening, and slowly incorporate grammar when it's needed, in this way learning grammar and vocabulary will hopefully seem less boring and more natural. However, if you need specific lessons focusing on an aspect of grammar this is something that I am more than comfortable with organizing.

I enjoyed my lesson with David so much, he is really professional and speaks with a very clear accent. He also helped me express my thoughts in a more natural way and made me feel at ease all the time. Thank you David, see you soon!

David's English is plan and understandable. He's calm and supportive, correcting my pronunciation and mistakes with kindness. I will definitely book more lessons with him.

David is an awesome teacher on top of being a passionate and very knowledgeable learner of history, with whom I thoroughly enjoyed discussing various periods which he taught me a lot about. Thank you for this amazing conversation! :)
