Adam Fitzgerald

English:

Mainly, I focus on exam preparation and speaking; the essential tools that contribute to fundamental linguistic confidence. One of my goals is to direct my attention specifically to a student's weakest area (be it grammar, speaking, writing, etc.) which will allow my students to develop well-balanced English skills.

My exam prep classes tend to be well structured to cover all the bases, while my conversation classes generally flow organically, often with pre-selected topics or themes. Despite this, the teaching methodology can often vary, depending on the particular needs or requirements of each student.


Extra information:

I am a native English speaker from Southampton, England, and I have over twelve years of experience in the English education field, where I have primarily focussed on exam preparation (KET, PET, FCE & CAE). In addition to this, I teach adult conversation classes and work as a freelance translator and proofreader.

In 2013 I received a TEFL qualification and in 2018, a Bachelor of Arts university degree in Spanish and Italian from Cardiff University, which means I know exactly what is required to learn and study a language.




Español:

Principalmente, me concentro en la preparación de exámenes y la expresión oral; las herramientas imprescindibles que contribuyen a una confianza lingüística fundamental. Uno de mis objetivos es dirigir mi atención específicamente hacia el área más débil de un estudiante (ya sea gramática, expresión oral, escritura, etc.) lo que permitirá a mis estudiantes desarrollar habilidades de inglés bien equilibradas.

Mis clases de preparación para exámenes tienden a estar bien estructuradas para cubrir todas las bases, mientras que mis clases de conversación generalmente fluyen de manera orgánica, a menudo con temas o temas preseleccionados. A pesar de esto, la metodología de enseñanza a menudo puede variar, dependiendo de las necesidades o requisitos particulares de cada estudiante.
