Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 22 Jul 2020
I am a native English speaker from South Africa. As a child, I also lived for a time on Reunion Island, which is a French overseas département (province), and there I learned to speak French. By profession I have been a tourist guide for much of my adult life, catering primarily to the French speaking market, and so even though I speak English at home, and live in an English-speaking country, I use French every day.
Ik als leerkracht
I have a great love for languages in general and have always been fascinated with how they work. I enjoy mapping one language onto another. I try to evoke this same interest in my students, and help them see both the similarities and the differences between their native language and the language they are learning.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My teaching style is very flexible and very much depends on the level and needs of my student. In my experience it helps a huge deal that the subject matter being discussed is personally relevant in some way to the student, so I will suggest to my student to bring with them material that they find stimulating or are interested in. Alternatively, I can provide the material.
Furthermore, it is in terms of my students needs that my lessons focus more or less on grammar, or on conversation. I find grammar in itself fascinating, and if the objective is preparing for a written exam, then we will focus on the technicalities pertinent to that exam. But if the objective is fluency, then conversation

Conversations with Jason are very interesting. It leaves us free to practice and learn English. It's really worth it.
