プライベート ESL 会話 - ネイティブ スピーカーと英語でトピックについて話し合う

If your learner can have conversations in English, but wants to improve their language leve in a fun and creative way, then this is the class for them! In this course we will discuss important topics in English while also taking time to understand challenging vocabulary words, practice listening skills, and learn how to have advanced conversations in English. For example, if the theme of the week is "Artificial Intelligence", the question might be, "Do you think robots will replace some jobs in the future, such as doctors, pilots, or cashiers? Do you agree?". Learners will express their opinions with me and I will ask follow up questions to make sure of comprehension. We will also take time at the end of class to correct any common grammar mistakes that I notice in class. Your learner will get to express their opinions on each topic and I will make sure that all opinions are respected. I will remain unbiased during lessons, offering multiple perspectives for each topic. 

At the end of class I will ask your learner to write an answer to one of the discussion questions as homework that they can send to me during the week. This is optional work, but I will be happy to correct their writing.

About the teacher:
I have been teaching ESL for 6 years and I've been an Outschool Educator for over two years now. I love teaching languages and grew up bilingual (English-Italian). I understand what it is like to learn a language, as I studied French and Spanish for many years. I have a B.A. and M.A. in Communication Science from the University of Pisa, and graduated in 2021. While in college, I worked for a local ESL company as a teacher and curriculum coordinator. I have lots of experience, but also great passion for helping students.
