Linda
Hello!
***Note: I'm sorry but I don't teach children on Cambly. Please register for Cambly Kids....Thank you. Hello, welcome to my classroom! My name is Linda and I was born and raised in Canada. I am a native English speaker so you will find my English very easy to understand and I'm very easy to talk to. Join me in Conversational English, Business English, Games, IELTS topics or Reading articles together. Definitely check out the topics and activities that you would enjoy based on Cambly programs in the library! If you are looking for a teacher who can commit to helping you speak English confidently then I am the teacher for you! If you are wanting to read English more fluently, then practice and repetition is the key to great results! As your teacher I will listen to your concerns and together we will overcome whatever challenges you face when speaking or reading English. I have my 160 hour TEFL/TESOL certificate. I have been teaching English for almost 10 years. I did volunteer teaching for two years of Integrated English and Debating Formats as well as IELTS classes in Indonesia to first year university students aged 17 to 19. I taught English courses online to young learners aged 5 to 13 for five years. I've been teaching adults on Cambly for almost three years.
My students describe me as very fun, easy going, friendly and very understanding. We can laugh and talk on most all subjects. I've travelled to over 20 different countries learning about different cultures, traditions and cuisines. I do volunteer work within my community, especially with animals. I'm a volunteer pet sitter. When people travel I will take care of their pets such as horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters. Most of all, I love being in nature.

Teaching Style
I am a very patient and understanding teacher. I enjoy getting to know my students and talking with them on various subjects. It's great to see my students gain confidence and to become comfortable in their speaking skills. I teach through conversation and meaningful tasks. There are great topics in the Cambly library from Business English to English for Travel to Hobbies and much more. Every student learns at their own pace. I tailor lessons to my students' goals and interests. I help with grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and conversation skills. I feel it's important to focus on proper pronunciation and error correction during the lessons. But above all, the students need to feel relaxed, engaged in activities, having fun, and hearing positive praises/feedback. {*Please Note: I am only teaching students 15 years and older who are able to read the Cambly material from the Cambly library. Or your own stories} {*I am not teaching young children, because Cambly has a "Cambly Kids" program for all children. Please register your child in "Cambly Kids" to enjoy the lessons, games, videos and other fun activities.}
