Mastering American English: Fluent Conversations and Cultural Connections

Hey!

I offer personalized English lessons online and around Leipzig (4km ratio from Johannapark) . I am a native English speaker from the USA, with over 4 years of teaching experience and TEFL certification.

I focus primarily on working with adults, especially those who feel fear of the language barrier. In the past two years, I have taught business courses, but also courses for employees of cultural institutions, students of fine arts departments and employees of the US embassy.

During our sessions we delve into engaging conversations while focusing on grammar and new vocabulary. The comfort of the students is key for me, and in order to track progress, we regularly conduct short tests.


A little about me: I was born and raised in Chicago, so English is my first language. I have completed Visual Art and Creative Writing studies in Poland and courses in teaching English, and as of October 2023 I have started postgraduate studies at HGB in Leipzig.

I can also issue invoices for the classes.

Languages spoken:
English - Native
Polish - C2
German - A2

Learn Russian and English with an individual approach
As a language enthusiast, I have a natural tendency to teach you that language with great inspiration. I would accept any offer when it comes to homework, translations, various projects, or simply teaching the language. I prefer to design lessons in such a way that everyone can develop the inspiration for language through songs, games, videos, poems, and so on. The best way to learn the language is when the lessons are exciting and visually designed. I am really happy when we can experience the adventure into the world of language together.
