Profile
I hold a masters degree in arts: I studied history as my major and ever since my graduation, I've been teaching mainly upper-secondary-school students. I am currently teaching IB Economics.
I've studied English since I turned 9 years - like most of Finns. Anyhow I've always felt uncertain about my pronunciation and worried maybe too much about grammar, so until the recent years I haven't spoken English very much outside the classrooms. Because of my studies, I've read some English literature and nowadays I'm buying and reading English newspapers once in a while so my written English is better than spoken one. Now I'd really like to improve it so it wouldn't take me so long to find words.
I'm looking for teachers and mentors who could help me to upgrade my spoken English by conversation and enrich my vocab. I've taken TOEFL twice within the last three years, and my latest result was 102 points. My next goal is to improve my English from C1 level to C2 level.

At the start of this lesson we chatted about the weekend, which involved attending a brunch in order to meet new colleagues and students. This not only applied vocabulary and grammar that was already known, but also brought up and used lots of new vocabulary, phrases and grammatical elements. After this we reviewed the exercises that were completed for homework. These included deciding whether the adjectives were weak, strong or absolute. Then we matched the weak adjectives with their strong counterparts in a couple of exercises. We then moved on to choose the best grading adverbs or intensifiers to go with the gradable/ non-gradable adjectives. At the end of the class we started a big exercise in which we worked out the meanings of and sorted the strong adjectives into the headings of six weak adjectives.I look forward to seeing what you create for homework.

At the start of this lesson we chatted about how the big move is going, how the wedding went and shopping in IKEA, which not only applied vocabulary and grammar that was already known, but also brought up and used lots of new vocabulary, phrases and grammatical elements. After this we finished off the exercises that practiced applying adjectives and their prepositions. After this we did a quick introduction to gradable/ non-gradable adjectives and grading/ intensifying adverbs, which we will continue with next lesson.
