I am a CELTA certified Teacher of English and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism. I have a vast experience teaching General English, preparation for Cambridge exams-, pronunciation, speaking and developing writing skills. I have been teaching for over 18 years to students of different age ranges (young learners and adults at universities, middle and high school and academies.
What I love most about teaching is that I get to help students and make them see how beautiful this language is and how they can make it useful for their academic and professional lives. Another good point is that we can learn from each other and the opportunity to plan every class in a different way.
I think I can tailor your lessons according to your needs so, do not hesitate and contact me.

I am young female staying in Johannesburg, South Africa. I have obtained my qualification in Agricultural management. I am well mannered and very inquisitive. I enjoy spending quality time with my friends and family because it is always an opportunity to learn more about myself and explore different characteristics that I have. I strongly believe in sharing and helping others. In life, we all have moments where one needs help but it is never easy to ask for help, hence why I always put myself forward by offering help. The world can be a much better place if more people had the spirit to help.
Teaching is a special role for one to play because it requires patience. I was able to learn more about my teaching ability through helping my brother and his friends with their homework and school assignments. I am quite charismatic and able to think on my feet to bring solutions when there is a problem. I enjoy teaching because it allows me to share what I have been taught and my knowledge with the next person.
I strongly believe in using color as part of my teaching methods because things are easier to remember when there is color attached. I will be using mostly paper to emphasize on things being taught so that they can be studied and re-learned at a larger stage. I will be using charts and graphs so the students are able to see and not just picture what is being taught. I will also share documents and articles relating to what is being taught just for interest and so that the students are able to learn more outside the class sessions.

Hey there, it's Nico, I'm a native Italian and I am a qualified experienced teacher of Spanish, Italian and English.

I know, learning a language can be intimidating, but it isn't so bad.
It's about two things: listen and speak.

That will be my focus with you. We will have CONVERSATIONS.
You'll make mistakes... so what? We will learn from them, laugh them off and speak better and better.

If you want to learn a language from scratch, improve one you already know, if you need it for work, travelling or just for fun, contact me for a free trial and we'll see what we can do.

I hope to meet you soon :)

Dear all,
My name is Giovanna, I am Italian and I live in Rome. I am a foreign language teacher of state secondary school. I teach Italian language and culture at the cultural association "Il Mondo che Vorrei" of my city.
I have a degree in foreign languages ​​and literatures and a degree in education. I have acquired two teaching qualifications and 3 masters, including the last one in Italian language and culture for foreigners.
I have over ten years of experience in teaching to children, teens and adults.
Why choosing me? Because my method works. I don't use a traditional approach: I start with a theme topic and then I go into detail on language functions and skills. I prepare students for language certifications at all levels. I don't just teach the language: my lessons will be a language journey through a full immersion of art, music, cuisine, fashion, tourism and culture at 360 °, all Made in Italy. And there will be some nice surprises of authentic "on the road" lessons
I'm waiting for you!

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!

Also, I have experience teaching people of all ages and levels. Furthermore, I am here to tailor to your needs and help you to improve your language proficiency, our sessions can focus on any of the language skills, especially conversation which is my primary focus to help students.

If you want to become more fluent in speaking, increase your vocabulary and pronunciation, start a lesson with me!

I speak English (Level C1) therefore, this language could be of help during the lesson if we need it. Since I am a Philosophy student, I am especially qualified to help you develop your academic writing skills and, if you are also interested, I could teach you Philosophy while we speak Spanish.

If you have any questions or concerns please message me and I will get back to you as soon as possible!

Hello! My name is Valeria. I'm glad you took an interest in my profile. Let me tell you a bit more about myself. I'm really passionate about languages, and I can speak and teach English, Spanish, and Turkish. I am currently learning Korean, French, and Arabic. For this reason, you can be sure that I know what it's like to go through the process of learning a language and I can find the best ways to help you reach your language goals, taking into account the perspectives of both the teacher and the learner.

In my 9 years as a teacher, I have mostly worked with adult learners (aged 18 or older), with a particular focus on:

1. General, conversational, business or academic English (although I can teach any level, I specialize in intermediate and advanced classes).

2. General and conversational Spanish classes.

3. Basic and intermediate Turkish lessons (I am a C2 and I have been studying Turkish for 7 years).

In addition to the classes, I can help you prepare for presentations, business meetings or calls, traveling abroad, entertaining visitors, among others.

I love to teach students with completely different backgrounds, cultures, professions, and needs. My classes are and have always been completely personalized to fit students' needs. You will really notice a big difference from previous classes you may have taken because we will be focusing on filling the gaps that you may have and developing your language skills as needed. No one-size-fits-all here! Take a chance and sample one class. I guarantee you will not be disappointed!

EXTRA: If you want to know more details about my classes: I work with a virtual classroom created using Google Classroom exclusively for your personal use. Here, I place all the materials we will use during our class, including a Word file where I will write your feedback for every class (New Vocabulary, Pronunciation Corrections, and New Grammar) so you can check it whenever you like.

I also create interactive Quizlet and Kahoot exercises that we will use during the class but that you can also use to practice on your own so you can reach your goals more quickly and in a fun way. In addition to this, we will use videos, songs, podcasts, articles, grammar PPTs and exercises, and whatever material you are interested in using.

I have studied for several years in different institutions to obtain my degree. I started teaching Romanian years ago in Romania. Later on, I have also offered my help and support to Spanish students, as I have been living in Spain for many years.

The learning offered depends on the interest and age of my students. They can choose what suits them best, so I will adapt to the personal needs of each of them.

A mixture of traditional and new methodologies will be used to obtain satisfactory results for both parties: student-teacher.

We will be using study books, audio and video materials, all kinds of worksheets, games and of course conversations, which will lead the students to have a better pronunciation and oral comprehension.
