Hello, I live in Cape Town, South Africa and I am a native English speaker with a British accent.
I am an enthusiastic teacher with an easy and relaxed style. I believe that the best way to learn a language is to listen, read and speak it no matter what level you are in. Practice always makes perfect.
I have had a rewarding life in that I have done many things that have given and continue to give me great pleasure. I am a career journalist who has spent the past 30+ years reporting for various local television shows. I have also for the past 12 years been teaching documentary filmmaking online and in classes at various schools. Three years ago I completed a TEFL certificate that has now allowed me to teach English and my main focus has been on interaction with Japanese students. This I have enjoyed very much and I am excited now to have joined Eigox.
My teaching is focussed on what the students wants and especially in conversation classes we tackle subjects that students are interested in. We talk, listen and read together which gives me the opportunity to help with pronunciation, grammar and comprehension. The lessons are relaxed and move at the student's pace taking ability into consideration.
