Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 17 Dec 2013Interest topicHistoryITScience
If you’re looking for a professional polyglot who can teach you to maximize your communication skills, you’re in luck, because I am NOT one of those “digital nomads” who are just interested in funding their country-of-the-month lifestyle. My experience (decades, not months or years) learning languages ＆ teaching teenagers & adults proves me to be a language nerd who knows how to teach.
Would you like a teacher who actually knows how to learn languages — and is doing so successfully? If so, you’re the kind of student I love working with. Now, I’ve moved on to learning Hebrew and 中文, so I’m always testing and refining new strategies ＆ tactics to benefit my students.Ik als leerkracht
Your time is valuable and teachers can write whatever they want here. Choosing a teacher, the first thing I do is calculate the returning student ratio: Divide the total lessons by the number of students, then subtract 1 (as the 1st lesson isn’t a returning student).
Pronunciation is my favorite “hack” — master it now, before learning thousands of words with bad pronunciation, and your path will be a lot easier. It’s not so much about accent, but we really need to prioritize pronunciation, because your pronunciation is the pronunciation you expect to hear, so if your pronunciation is off, your listening will be 10x more difficult. Fix your pronunciation now, and you’ll be a lot happier!Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
Beginners ＆ advanced speakers are welcome.
Feel free to ask me how you can benefit from my expertise in phonology, phonetics, accent acquisition, grammar acquisition for fluency, academic ＆ business writing, and test preparation to MASTER the AMERICAN ACCENT, PRONUNCIATION, IELTS, TOEFL, SAT, ACT etc.
PLEASE WRITE A BRIEF INTRO BEFORE YOU REQUEST OUR FIRST LESSON.
You can master American pronunciation, grammar, speaking, and exam / test skills (IELTS, TOEFL, etc). Beginners & advanced speakers welcome. Specialties include phonology (phonetics, rhythm, intonation, etc), fluent grammar in real time conversation, ＆ idiomatic expression mastery.

Recommendation letter - Sotoya Student Bilingual Learning Center - 2012The document is a letter of recommendation from a position where I taught TOEIC preparation lessons — besides general English and other specialties (such as Call Center English). I have additional experience at other institutions, but never received any related documents. For example, I taught exam English for the TOEIC at Educational Language Corporation (San José, Costa Rica), where I worked from 04/2012 to 12/2013. Note also my italki experience (no relevant document available).

Recommendation letter - inlingua - 2011From 04/2009 to 01/2011, I taught mostly business English full-time at inlingua (name stylized in all-lowercase), learning and mastering the internationally famous inlingua method. You'll note bullet point 3 "working directly with both corporate and public clients". The "corporate clients" were all business English, as were many of the public clients.

It's a relief to know that there is a teacher who can teach (and challenge!) a proficient speaker. Phil is able to point out anything that sounds even slightly off, despite the fact that I speak with a British accent. Our main objective, however, is improving my understanding of phonology so that I could deliver better lessons, whether I'm teaching English or Czech. Our first two lessons were very informative and pleasant. Speaking with someone who is so passionate about the subject is a delight.

这节课非常重要，它都颠覆了我以往的对英语的认知。。。之前我还以为英语每个音都要发出来呢。。。其实不用，跟我以前学的完全不一样。。。现在觉得合理多了。
