About Me

italki teacher since Mar 9, 2021

Hi there! Thank you visiting my profile, I would be delighted to help you learn or improve your English for business purposes, school, or travel. I have taught from middle school to adult learners working in the corporate world. I have a CELTA certificate from the University of Cambridge and I am eager to share my knowledge with you having worked at international schools all over the world teaching people from many parts of the world. I have over 20 years experience teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) in the US, Ecuador, Germany and the UK. I'm also fluent in Spanish and speak some German so I understand what it's like learning a new language - let's learn together!

Me as a Teacher

My teaching style is interactive, the important thing is that we meet the lesson plan's goal(s) but also have fun and learn something new! I like to include references to pop culture, travel and current trends to make the lesson feel more relevant.

My lessons & teaching style

I can prepare lessons for you beforehand based on your needs and goals, send you homework and we can also work together on a textbook of your choice / one which I can recommend to go through more formal grammar or focus on areas you are finding difficult.
