Biografía:
hey, So I am Jennie Lou and I am from Hereford in England. I lived in Wales for 10 years before Moving to Peru in 2019. I know how hard it is to learn a new language, after all these years my Spanish is still terrible and I never mastered Welsh! In my classes I use articles, pictures, roleplays and vocal exercises such as tongue twisters to really improve fluidity of speech. I make every class different and you will get a lot out of them without realising it!
Mi metodología de enseñanza:
Mi experiencia docente:
I have been working as an ESL teacher on another platform for three years helping my students gain confidence and reach their goals. My students were mostly from Turkey, Brazil, Japan, China, South Korea and Saudi Arabia. I have mostly taught students from ages 12 and up and from different backgrounds. The longest I have had a student for is 2 1/2 years. I became interested in teaching as I had family through my fathers marriage in Peru who could not speak English and wanted to learn. So on my visits I found ways of teaching them the basics. But as a child my family would host teenagers from France and Spain who would come to study at a language school, It was fun as a child helping them practise their English, it was inevitable I would go on to be an ESL teacher!
Mi experiencia fuera de la enseñanza:
Prior to taking up teaching I was working as an autism specialist in a day centre. Here i learn how to be patient and go at my service users pace, to listen to their needs and make adaptions depending on their abilities. Before this I worked as a hypnotherapist and specialised in anxiety and depression, I became an unofficial life coach. I have lots of advice to give and I am a great listener. I have always been passionate about helping people be the best they can be. I am a single parent with 4 children, each of them are unique and have their own characters and needs that I adapt to. I have a love of exploring and dream of own day living on a canal in a narrowboat! I like a peaceful quiet life. In my spare time I like to walk my 3 dogs on the beach, watch a good movie, listen to music, go to the gym in the mornings and spend time with my children.
