21-CENTURY NECESSITIES in ENGLISH- from basic and general to advance and business ENGLISH through the scope of HUMANITIES and GLOBAL ISSUES!

Hello there, my friend from the future! :) My name is Tamara, and I specialize in both tutoring beginners and advanced students, both general and basic, as also academic, legal and business English.
Since I have an LLM in International law, and my expertise is in Environmental Law, Human Rights, International Criminal, and Humanitarian Law and even Space law, I tend to tackle them with a much wider, multidisciplinary approach, so my students can gain a broader perspective on the crucial issues of today's society. Similarly to that, regarding general English, I intend to go through it through 21st-century "know-hows" and "must-knows", related to the crucial issues of today's society e.g. Environmental protection and conservation, climate change, global warming, healthy nutrition, consumerism, corruption, Human Rights, spiritualism, self-improvement, self-awareness, self-empowerment, and other similar important topics. As you can see, all of these topics can be taught from the aspect of social sciences and humanities, which is what I do best!
My main method is oral communication, Q&A, brain games, role-play, providing reading material, using a multimedia approach and engaging students with various different teaching tools. With younger or beginner students, I usually also use flashcards, TPR (Gestures and body language), and even teaching toys and props. But, although I am very thorough, my teaching style is also very flexible in terms of adaptability to the students' needs and preferences - which means that you can count on a relaxed, natural and friendly environment with me! :) And, don't worry! I'm a Law graduate, so I'm always objective when it comes to teaching! And, since I'm of the opinion that a teacher must be, above all, an activist, and a humanitarian, a giver and a helper, an adviser and, of course, a friend... I must honestly say that, If you like what you just read, I can't wait to meet you and help you start creating a small change in building a better society for future generations, by improving yourself and sharing your knowledge with others!

About Me

First of all, I must say that I'd like to think that specialization is possible in multiple but similar and related areas of personal interest and expertise. That is why during the entire period of my Bachelor and Master studies at the Faculty of Law, I broadened my knowledge by being proactive - volunteering and engaging in various projects, seminars, courses, and conferences that fall in the scope of my interest, potential, and possibilities. Through those opportunities, I was able to publish three works in English, all in the area of Human Rights, all in the scope of just one year. But, my background doesn't end with Law-related knowledge and engagement only. I also priorly taught English, both on-line about two years, and also in-class (live, face to face) in Vietnam - in both kindergartens and private schools. Following the footsteps of my father and grandmother, who were well-known teachers, and aspiring to become a University professor one day, I combined teaching English with teaching Law, Human Rights, Environmental issues and awareness and Humanities and social sciences on-line, as those are also the areas my expertise lays in. Therefore, regarding professional development, I believe in versatility and individually specified and tailored expertise, which is also reflected in the multidisciplinary and multimedia approach in my method of teaching English.
I strongly believe that today's fast, globalized consumer society needs to take a step back and start fixing its own flaws. In other words, in order to be able to help others, one must first help himself. To achieve that, everyone must obtain the number 1 asset in the 21st century - relevant information. As information keeps multiplying day by day through hastily changing trends on internet, the bare minimum everyone should have is the knowledge of the basics about how to "survive and thrive" through numerous critical issues such as Globalization, Internet era, Consumerism, Unsustainability, Climate change, Global Warming, Discrimination, Hate speech and similar. Since everyone is slowly turning towards extra-curriculum activities and alternatives to formal education, I think that on-line tutoring gives great opportunities to broaden knowledge on the critical topics in Social Sciences/Humanities, and what better way to learn a language than through topics that are actually quite relevant and interesting in the modern world.
To conclude, I think you can gather yourself that I am in fact, a humanitarian and an activist, additionally to my profession, that advising, sharing, and giving, rather than taking, fulfills me and makes me who I am. So, I am here to help, advise, give...The taking and sharing further part rests on you now and is just one click away - book me, and we can start being a part of the change. I can't wait...Can you? :)
