My favorite book - The Little Coffee Shop of Kabul by Deborah Rodriguez
My favorite movie - The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
I love making books of my travels - Australia, England, Israel, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Kenya and of the lives of orphaned elephants and their reintegration into a wild life in Kenya.
Kenya is my favorite travel destination, I love its beauty and diversity, wild life and donkeys on the roadside, so much so that I am now learning to speak Swahili on Italki :-)
Ich als Lehrkraft
In the last 5 years I have worked in remote areas of Australia both as a Renal Dialysis Nurse and as an English Tutor. I hold a Diploma in TESOL and used my expertise to tutor mature aged aboriginal women, assisting them in their studies. These women may have 1or 2 tribal languages and English may be their 3rd or 4th language.
When home in Queensland, I host international students. My first student was a Chinese girl named Yoyo, undertaking her Masters, I assisted her with Conversational English, Australian idioms and slang. I have also hosted Punjabi and Indian students who are upgrading their nursing qualifications and assisted them with nursing terminology and conversational English.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My teaching style is one of listening to my students to understand where they need support, whether it’s for conversation at work, study or in social situations. I am patient and teach at a learning pace that each student will be comfortable with.
Denise is always in a good mood and so pleasant to talk with! She always shares nice knowledge and experiences about Australia, since I'm spending some time around the country.

I would like to briefly share a great experience I had two weeks ago, and this experience was possible because of the classes and conversations I had with Denise. I attended an international lecture at the University of Brasilia, my city, and I was able to express and share my ideas and thoughts, with good enough English and confidence, with the other people who attended this lecture. So, thank you, Denise, for everything I have been learning on this English journey with you! :)

Today, the internet connection was not good and interrupted the lesson. I could not hear the teacher's voice clearly.
