What our teachers offer
Enthusiastic English Teacher
I am fully qualified to teach English as a foreign language after gaining my certificate from TEFL.ie. Previously I have worked in the finance industry so I would make a great teacher for anyone who is working in this sector.
I aim to improve my students confidence when it comes to conversational English, however I do not neglect the written and grammatical part of the language.
When it comes to resources I like incorporate Powerpoints, videos and aural exercises to engage the student and make is an interactive class.

Hi, welcome to my profile!
My name is Alessia and I currently live in Italy. I lived some years in America where I deepened my knowledge of English and American dialects. I am currently specializing in the Spanish and German. In all these years I have given private lessons of Italian, English, Spanish and Japanese, at the moment the most required language. Regarding Japanese, I had the opportunity to experience the teaching of the language in an American College with a native Japanese teacher, implementing the method that they themselves use to learn their language. I will help you in a simple way; conversation is really important to learn a language and even more a good method. No days spent on textbooks are needed, constancy and fun during lessons are the most important part for learning. You will see the results immediately! I am patient, flexible and I will adapt in all ways to your personal needs. I'll wait for you on my profile for the trial lesson and discover an easy and fun method to learn a language as soon as possible.

Hi! I'm Trini. I'm a Spanish and English teacher and translator from Argentina, in South America. I've been a teacher for three years with students of all ages and levels. I've trained students for international exams and received the Top of the World award for IGCSE English as a Second Language from Cambridge University.
My classes are entertaining and dynamic, and I like to think of my relationship with my students as team work. We focus on conversation and we use different resources, such as videos, TV shows and articles, to train listening and reading comprehension in real-life scenarios. We can discuss in which areas of language learning you prefer to focus on and we'll make sure to have a class that suits all your needs.
I can't wait to meet you!

Hi there, thank you for stopping by! My name is Cristina, I'm a CELTA qualified English teacher and I have a Master’s Degree in Foreign Languages; I speak English fluently and I can communicate in Italian, Portuguese, French and Spanish. Being a language learner myself and thanks to my educational background I have a deep understanding of language structure and I can easily put myself in my students’ shoes and understand the areas they might struggle with.
I’ve been giving private lessons for one year, to both teenagers and adults of all levels. My lessons are very student-centered, which means that my first priority is to get to know you in order to tailor the lessons around your needs and interests. I create a friendly and trustful environment, I plan my lessons to be engaging and communicative and I encourage my students to take active part in the discovery of the target language. I use a wide variety of coursebooks, online tools and authentic materials that I adapt to online teaching through powerpoint presentations and file sharing. I believe that practicing all language skills (reading, listening, speaking, writing) as well as grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation is key to fluency and I make it a point of helping my students to develop all of them.
Over the last few years I've had several experiences in international companies, which allowed me to become familiar with tourism and business-related language, so I can help you strengthen your communication skills in these areas, as well as in everyday conversational English to communicate with co-workers, clients and friends.
If you have any questions drop me a message or book a trial lesson so that we can get to know each other!
I look forward to meeting to you :)

Hello!
My name is Nora and I am born and raised in Sweden and have lived most of my life within Sweden. I love cats and my interests are reading books, swimming and travelling.
I have a bachelor in social work and have worked in both Swedish and English speaking environments. For instance as a school counselor in an English speaking high school and as an English teacher in Cape Town in South Africa for kids.
I am studying Spanish myself at the moment and I know how hard it can be in the beginning with a new language. I also know how much fun it can be when you start to actually be able to communicate in your new language. I believe every new language you learn is going to expand your way of thinking and make you grow!
I can offer both teaching for absolute beginners in Swedish, but also if you want to develop the language skills you already have. I offer a free trial lesson.
If you want to know more about me or the learning process, feel free to contact me!
Have a nice day!
/Nora

Hello everyone! My name is Matias Pizarro, but you can call me Matt. I am 30 years old, and I am from Argentina.
At first, teaching online was a challenge, not for the knowledge, the didactic or the way to get to students, but for the whole new set of resources at my disposal and how to use them effectively. The variety of tricks with the camera, magic, puppets, the limit was my imagination; that feeling was really overwhelming. But, as I said at first, I took this as a challenge, a new way of expanding my inner resourses and finally, widening my understanding about teaching.
Working with kids was the most important and significant choice in my professional career as a teacher, because I discovered the real meaning of being an educator. I understood that it's not just about teaching the subject, but guiding and supporting students; being an inspiring person. I like to comprehend teaching by a very beautiful phrase that stands: Be the person that you needed when you were young.
If you choose me as your teacher, I promise that you will learn a lot of things while having a great time together!
See you in our class! Bye!

Hei, hei!
My name is Kristian, I am Greek/Norwegian and what I always wanted was to express myself & to communicate.
Living on a transit, made me realise that languages are the best way to make new friends, broaden your horizons and see the world from a new spectrum.
The key to master a language is to decode the culture behind that language & actively use it without the fear of making mistakes. No matter how much you're gonna read 'n' write, your #gainz will be eventually lost, unless you use it. Especially orally.
Have you ever noticed what happens, when you try to speak in the other person's language?
Have you ever noticed what happens, when you are visiting the country that uses the language?
And have you ever noticed what happens, when you try to sing-along in another language?
Learning a language seem tricky. All you need, though, is a little bit of accountability and a little bit of creativity.
For more information, just contact me :)
Enjoy your day,
Kristian

I enjoyed going over our homework. I think Kristian has many goals in mind that he very structurally puts across. The first 15 minutes was taken up with website logistics. I know this needs to happen, but it was learning time for me, and since every moment counts, I wish it could have not eaten up my time. That's a colanguage issue and shouldn't interfere in my paid hour.

Well done on making the first step to learning English! It is a fantastic addition to your professional or personal profile. I started my journey as an actress, I moved quickly into the world of Education finding my passion in early childhood development. I am a qualified teacher and have been working in international schools for many years. I recently acquired my TEFL certificate allowing me to expand my horizons and teach online. I grew up in Hong Kong before moving back to England. I have lived in Portugal for the last year teaching Portuguese and French children, I loved the diversity and felt I wanted to teach adults too. Since then I have been tutoring online which has given me the chance to meet people from all over the world and help them on their language journey in a comfortable and open environment. I am married to a Frenchman so I have basic understanding of French and I have a French tutor myself!
I usually test the level at the beginning and then plan with the students the goals they want to achieve. After that with every lesson I check progress and points to review with the help of a log to have a clear plan in every lesson. I believe it is VERY important for the teacher and student to share a positive connection and for both parties to feel comfortable. Drop me an email to make the booking!

Prior to our first lesson, Ferran had already collected a number of resources based on our correspondence. This was a happy surprise! I wasn't expecting this at all. As an instructor, Ferran was patient and easy to understand. He is able to make use of his command of the language and its literature to incorporate material on the fly during the lesson. I look forward to working more with Ferran.

Hi everybody, my name is Tra My, I have been living in Barcelona for 5 years. I speak Spanish, English, Vietnamese, a little Portuguese and Chinese. I have 4-year experience of teaching Vietnamese language to foreigners. However, I think language is not enough. If you would like to travel, study, work, live in Vietnam, or just look for a Vietnamese partner, you need to know more about Vietnamese culture. Additionally, I was working as a lawyer in Vietnam, so I can advise you on how to start a business in Vietnam and obtain residency permits. We will talk together about it in my classes. I will accompany you from knowing nothing about Vietnam until you can negotiate the price with the Vietnamese people :) I look forward to seeing you in my classes!

Hello! My name is Andrei, and I'm a professional theater director and educator from Saint-Petersburg, Russia. I teach theater all over the world - in Europe and the USA, and I teach Russian online for anyone who studies Russian and loves Russian culture.
Learning and teaching languages is my passion. As a theater director, I interact with Russian language and Russian literature on daily basis, so, when teaching Russian, I strive to share my love of it and spread my knowledge.
No less than Russian, I love English, which allows me to communicate with the world. In 2018, I won a Fulbright competition and as a Fulbrighter and Visiting Scholar I taught Russian theater techniques at two American universities - The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and The University of Illinois at Chicago. This experience helped me improve my spoken English and convinced me that language is a powerful tool for cultural exchange.
Qualifications & Experience
As a tutor, I've been teaching Russian online for about 2 years. During this time I've taught around 50 students - from beginners to advanced. Among my students I have had an American military pilot, an American embassy officer in Kazakhstan, dozens of college students, and others. I've gained some experience in diagnosing student problems and finding effective tactics to improve their skills.
As a person who was trained a lot in voice and speech class during my studies in the Saint-Petersburg State Theater Arts Academy, I can also help you significantly improve your pronunciation.
Teaching Approach
I believe that it's not enough to learn grammar and vocabulary to master a foreign language. One has to be immersed into a real language, a language people really speak, which is always different from those versions we encounter in various textbooks.
On the other hand, it seems to me important to show students higher examples of the Russian language - the literary language. It's essential to know which speech sounds good and to distinguish it.
I mainly rely on conversational practice. However, as to their homework, I strongly recommend students to listen to Russian speech using various videos and podcasts, and I give them four special techniques for working with these types of materials. I firmly believe that listening can create the basis for future communication skills. There's no doubt that children begin to speak imitating the speech of their parents.
During my lessons I use "Russian in Exercises" written by S.A. Khavronina and A.I. Shirochenskaya - a book published in 2014, which became a bestseller among those who teach Russian as a foreign language, "53 Models of Russian Grammar" by T.M. Dorofeeva and M.N. Lebedeva, various exercises, tables and games, as well as interviewing and retelling.

Let me give you a feedback about my lessons with Andrei in English. I searched for a russian teacher almost 2 years ago, and I was most lucky to find 2 really good teachers with different specialties immediately. Apparently I was one of Andrei's first russian students, and I admire the patience he had with me at that time, because I knew so little in russian, that it must have been a pain with me. At that time I had studied 9 months, using books, audio files, podcasts and articles etc. But I knew I needed to talk to get fluid in russian. As I am over 50, it takes me some more time to learn something than it was during my school time. I can only imagine, how this must have felt to Andrei at our beginning. Andrei comes from the cultural sector, having been a director at a St. Petersburg theatre and a Lecturer to students there. In his intro he states very calmly and somewhat non-passionately, how much he loves the russian language. Believe me, the passion became visible and tangible vehemently later on. There was no theme, we could not touch together, and I feel honored to be instructed by such an intellectual gentleman. Andrei was quite demanding, and early on I had to write texts, which we later on worked through. I tend to write in complicated ways, and he regularly demanded from me to find and use the most common and simple way of expressing my thoughts. This helped me enormously, because I had started at the typical point to simply translate the phases I had built in German, my mother tongue. A translated sencence sounds translated, whereas a natively expressed sentence has the potential to be recognized as "almost russian" :-) As I said, I feel tremendously privileged to learn from Andrei, and I enjoy our lessons enormously, as can be seen from the 136 lessons to this date. I can recommend Andrei to anyone, who looks for more than the mechanics of the language, who enjoys the fire, seeks for context or loves to come up with totally unexpected questions. Andrei loves to see progress, and if you work on your personal progress, it is a pleasure to work with him. Thank you so much, Andrei!
