Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 28 Jun 2016
Hello! My name is Josh. I am a native English-speaker from Canada who is studying French, Spanish, Swedish, and Brazilian Portuguese. I have also studied many other languages, including the scientific study of linguistics in university.
I recommend all my students to schedule their English sessions at least 1-2 weeks in advance in order to guarantee themselves a spot in my calendar, and so that I can properly prepare for their sessions. This means that, unfortunately, I cannot typically accept lesson requests that are sent less than 24 hours before the lesson is to begin - I am sorry.
Ik als leerkracht
*** MAY & JUNE 2021 UPDATE ***
I am currently available to tutor in English five days a week, 40 hours per week. I recommend that students book sessions at least 1-2 weeks in advance. Any bookings made less than 24 hours in advance will not be accepted due to the time it takes to prepare for a student's lesson (trial lessons included). Scheduling a minimum of 1-2 weeks beforehand will guarantee yourself a spot in my tutoring schedule.
NOTE: I will be going on vacation between June 16-23. I will be available to tutor again full-time on June 24, 2021.
I look forward to helping you improve your English abilities! See you soon! :)

Thank you very much Josh for every lesson this year. You have been a great tutor who helped me when I felt frustrated about my English. You showed me that making mistakes is natural. Every mistake means a small step forward with my English. Your encouragement, explanations, honesty and guidance have been superb. I wish you merry christmas and happy new year! See you in 2020!

Josh was very supportive and patient. He explains clearly his methods and encourage the conversation. He showed me when I made mistakes, in a kind way, without being rude. He also shows interest in what I was saying, what makes me feel comfortable on keep talking without embarrassment.

In this session, we went off a tangent, although I picked up lots of vocabulary throughout the session. Good luck with the big project you’ve been working on. I’m also looking forward to it.

In this session, while we were having a small talk, we went on a tangent. It was a good opportunity to pick up more vocabulary that is related to medical terms. We got back to the lyrics again and looked at verb tenses more carefully to grasp what sort of the messages were implied in it.
