Introduction:
Advanced and professional English Language instruction
Hi, my name is Matthew. Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction.
I am a committed and passionate teacher of English who has taken many steps to become effective at instruction. I have studied teaching at post-graduate level and completed a CELTA certification course.
I have over three year's classroom teaching experience gained in three different countries to date. I realize that we are all individuals and have our own needs with regard to life and learning. I aim to address each learner of English as an individual with their own specific requirements. Someone told me one time to make yourself invaluable you must specialize in one particular aspect in your field. I have made it a mission to specialize in exam preparation.
I have studied a foreign language before myself and understand it can have a positive impact on your life, career prospects as well as gaining access to another culture.
I sincerely wish you all the best with your language progress and hope to see you soon!
Teaching Specialty:
I have an extensive knowledge of past and current affairs from being an avid reader and consumer of media.
Having taught for many years, I have a good idea of useful language that language learners need.
I absolutely love the range of expressions languages create.
I have an extensive collection of grammar explanations and activities to enable people to start using grammar easily.
I have a keen ear for common mistakes when pronouncing English.
I believe I have a manner conducive to easy conversation on a broad range of topics and interests.
I developed and taught a TOEFL preparation class that helped many students achieve great TOEFL results.
My previous classroom experience saw me work with business men looking to hone and perfect both their grammar and overall communicative ability.
I have undertaken IELTS-specific courses from Cambridge English Teachers online training alongside years of classroom experience with real test-takers.
