About Me
italki teacher since Sep 5, 2016Interest topicMusicFoodHistoryGamingReading
๐ก๐จ๐ฆ My Background: I was born in Toronto, Ontario. ๐ My parents are from a province called Newfoundland & Labrador, which is on the eastern side of Canada. ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ We lived in Toronto until I was 7, and then we went back to their home province. ๐บ๏ธ Growing up in two different parts of Canada with their unique ways of speaking and living has helped me become good at teaching Canadian English and culture. ๐ฃ๏ธ๐
๐๐ Things I Like: I love spending time with my wife, making yummy food ๐ณ, enjoying music ๐ต, watching TV shows ๐บ, having a good cup of coffee โ, and sipping a nice beer ๐บ. I also find traveling ๐ and reading about history ๐ really enjoyable! ๐Me as a Teacher

๐ My Goal: ๐ฃ๏ธ I want to assist you in practicing English as much as you'd like. ๐ง I believe that a good teacher is someone who listens carefully. So, I'll focus on listening to your English to understand where you need the most help. ๐ Unlike many native English speakers who don't usually correct English learners, I'll kindly point out every mistake you make to help you improve. ๐
๐งณ My Career: After school ๐, I did various jobs in Canada ๐จ๐ฆ: construction ๐จ, cleaning ๐งน, and 5 years as a cook ๐ณ. In 2016, I began teaching English ๐ฃ๏ธ after marrying my wife ๐. My 6 years on Italki equipped me to assist with your English. ๐จโ๐ณ๐My lessons & teaching style
๐๐ My Test Prep Lessons: I offer special classes for the CELPIPโข English language test. As a certified IELTSโข coach, I'll give you the info you need to reach your target score! ๐ฏ๐
๐
๐ My Structured Course: I use lesson plans from linguahouse.com, which offer top-notch resources for improving every aspect of English. During our lessons, we'll practice speaking ๐ฃ๏ธ, listening ๐, and reading ๐ activities. I'll give you homework after each class, and we can go over it at the start of the next class to fix any mistakes. ๐๐
๐ฌ๐จ๏ธ Chat with me in a laid-back class, and we'll dive into diverse topics with engaging discussion worksheets! ๐๏ธ๐ฃ๏ธMy teaching material

Shane is a great teacher who is friendly and supportive. He provided excellent recommendations and examples on how to approach tasks on the exam. He offered valuable practice for speaking and writing, correcting my mistakes and sharing his own examples.
