Information About Joanne - Cork tutor

Personal Description:

Hi, I'm a CELTA qualified English as a Foreign Language teacher. I have been teaching for 3 years and have taught in Japan, Italy, and Ireland. I received my undergraduate degree from University College Cork in English and History before heading to Japan to teach.

I love teaching and getting to know my students. I believe learning the English language is much more than rules and grammar, but also learning about different cultures and real world applications for what you learn.

Tutoring Experience:

I taught in a private language centre in Japan for one year working with all ages from kids as young as 2 years old, teenagers, and up to adults. Following this I spent time in Italy working with teenagers and adults working towards Cambridge exams from A1 to Proficiency level. I have been teaching in Ireland for almost a year now with adults from a wide range of countries.

I have experience catering classes to individual students needs, whether that is general conversation, grammar review, listening skills, preparing for exams, etc.

Approach to Grinds:

The first lesson will allow you to tell me what your needs are, whether it's learning for work or pleasure, exam preparation, working on conversational English. This lesson will also allow me to assess your level and aspects which I feel need to be worked on in particular. Feel free to tell me of how you like to learn and what you find most effective. I can crea**Contact Detail Removed**sson plans and programs based on these aspects and to work on key skills of reading, writing, speaking, and listening.
