    About Dustin R.

    4.6
    (3)
    Hello, My name is Dustin. I have been teaching English for five years now. I have traveled to thirteen different countries and visited three. I love exploring new places and cultures and learning new ideas. I love exotic foods, animals, and clothing. I am a big sports fan, and I love movies. One of my all-time favorite film series is The Avengers. I also like watching shows on Netflix such as Stranger Things, Mindhunter, Breaking Bad, and House of Cards. I am a big music fan as well. I love Taylor Swift, Maroon 5, and Coldplay. I love having fun with the students and always cracking jokes and one-liners to make them laugh. I have five separate puppets to entertain the little children: a panda, a giraffe, an elephant, a tiger, and a monkey. I make them dance and cheer whenever the students get it right to give them praise. I also use my puppets to encourage the little students who are shy or lower-functioning. I am quite familiar not just with TPR but also grammar correction with adults.r. I have grown quite adept at knowing which letters of the English language are harder to pronounce based on which region of the world a student is from as well. In addition, I speak Spanish, German, and French as well. All of those I studied in school and university when I was younger. I read the news as well to keep up with current events in the countries of my regular clients.

    Dustin is a great teacher! He listened when I told him what I wanted to learn. He is patient and understanding and makes our lessons fun. I am glad that I found him to be my teacher.

    I am a fellow colleague of Dustin's. Dustin is an interesting person who is able to hold interesting conversations about all kind of topics. He is also a reliable individual who is dedicated to his job. He is also a great team player and has covered a class for me when in the unfortunate event, I had injured my foot from a bike accident and was not able to make class. Dustin kindly agreed to make the journey and take the lesson at the last minute.
