About Me
italki teacher since Apr 21, 2020Interest topicWritingMusicReading
I'm a published writer and an actor who's been teaching English for 15 years.
I've been teaching Business English for 13 years.
I love teaching all aspects of English and try to include grammar as an integral component of everything we do - not a separate topic which can frighten people!
I love talking about anything and everything with my students - travelling, music, art, literature, films, politics, the environment, work...
I'm a very creative person and always adapt to whatever my students want and need.Me as a Teacher

It is always a pleasure to have a lesson with Lizzie. We discuss different topics each lesson that enrich my vocabulary on topics I don't use frequently. The time flies by during her lessons. She is an excellent teacher!
