I am an American and originally grew up in Fayetteville, Arkansas, but am currently living in Germany. When I have free time outdoors I enjoy hiking and skiing. Otherwise, I work on improving my own foreign language skills (currently Italian) and reading science news and science fiction. I am a TEFL certified instructor (with training for teaching English online) and specialize primarily in conversation and English for Academic Purposes for upper-Beginner to low-Advanced levels, but also can provide more traditional lesson plans for those same levels. I have learned German as a foreign language for nearly a decade and Korean and Italian for several semesters at the college level, and so my own experiences as a foreign language student are the primary thing that informs how I approach the learning process. I truly believe that any subject can become a relevant tool to teach English. I will start by establishing what sorts of personal interests you may have as a student and work to marry those with the language goals you might have. I typically pull in outside texts, images, current events, or articles to tap into language practice as well as initiate using your conversation skills.
