CELTA-Qualified, Experienced ESL Teacher Hello! My name is Cara and I am from Manchester, England. I recently returned from Vietnam, where I taught a wide range of students, from primary school students to university students to local school principals. After a long break from italki, I am currently travelling and volunteering around Europe, which is the perfect time for me to resume online teaching. I love travel, nature, reading, writing, languages, meeting new people and learning new things about the world. I really enjoy connecting with new people on iTalki and having interesting discussions about anything and everything! I believe that a friendly atmosphere in which students feel relaxed is important. If we can have a laugh - even better! I am always happy to have open conversations and get to know each other whilst learning. Conversation practice is the key to success in language learning, so let's chat and naturally improve your language skills as we go! Or, if you prefer a more structured approach, I have materials to help you develop any aspect of language you'd like. My availability is subject to change right now whilst I finish my travels, but I will be more consistent and widely available in the new year. Please reach out and we’ll find a time that suits you.

CELTA, IELTS, and BET Certified teacher with eight years of teaching experience Hello! My name is Cory I am an English teacher and digital designer from America with eight years of experience teaching both general English and business English. I have a CELTA certificate, an IELTS teaching certificate, and a BET certificate for teaching Business English. As for University, I have degrees in Political Science (International Relations concentration), Russian & Slavic Studies (including Ukrainian language and literature), and Business Administration. My personal approach to teaching English follows my belief that learning should involve active communication and expression of ideas. Additionally, I expect students to consistently read and listen to English material outside of class. I am happy to provide or recommend material that I find particularly beneficial to bringing up your level of communication. I also believe that we should always be having fun with topics and exercises that are interesting to us both. Our lessons will start with a warm-up chat, continue on with speaking about any books you are reading or series you are watching (be ready to talk, talk, talk), and finally we'll move on to a topic that interests us you (or, hopefully, both of us!) If you have any questions about the lesson types, please feel free to write! If you're unsure of which class type to book, the safest option is "Free-flow Conversation." We can easily pivot within our conversation to different formats or levels of English. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

Professionally teaching kids, teenagers and children with special needs. Creative, Efficient Lessons Unlike many teachers who try to teach everything to everyone, I focus only on my professional specialization: teaching children, teenagers, and students with special needs, including ADHD, autism, and low attention span. I believe that focus brings better results. I respect both the child’s time and the parents’ investment, so I make every minute of the lesson count. For this reason, I prefer efficient 30–60 minute classes. I do not rely on standard textbooks. Instead, I use my own carefully designed materials, videos, and original games that keep students engaged and motivated. My goal is not only to teach during lessons, but also to guide students toward independent learning.

I studied Linguistics (French and English) in Moscow and afterwards I did my Master's degree in Educational Sciences in Finland. I did an internship in Italy, where I taught Russian to Italian students at the University of Pavia, and I also did another internship in Spain for teaching English. I prefer to act like 'a friend' to my student rather than as an authoritarian controller. I 'guide' the students' learning, helping them to achieve their best results and making sure that they enjoy learning with me.

In our classes, we can focus on your personal needs, for example, vocabulary, grammar, speaking skills, writing skills - literally, anything you need help with and anything you want to improve. During our first class, we will get to know each other, you will tell me how and where you studied English or Russian before, I will help you set a goal and I will work out a personalized study plan for you that we will follow. I’m convinced that speaking is the most important aspect of leaning a language, because initially we start learning a language in order to communicate with people, to get to know their culture so during our classes we will pay the most attention to the speaking part.

*Currently only teaching students with a level of B1 or above - sorry!* Hi there! What would you like to know about me? - I'm from the UK, specifically the East of England. - I'm TEFL qualified - I've taught at a primary school and boarding school - I'm musical: I mostly play guitar these days. I also enjoy busking and songwriting. - I love travelling! I spent a month studying in France and have spent time interrailing, among many other travels. I do speak some French, donc j'aime bien aller dans les pays francophones autant que possible! Since becoming a TEFL teacher, I've worked for a charity that teaches English to refugees and asylum seekers, I've taught English lessons online and at a boarding school, as well as an International summer school. I am happy to cover any topics you wish to discuss - I love the variation! I aim to make lessons feel relaxed, while also making them as productive as possible through varied resources and taking detailed notes. Lessons include a 5-minute break to allow a smooth transition from one class to the next. Therefore: - 30-minute slot = 25-minute lesson - 60-minute slot = 55-minute lesson *REFUND POLICY* Unfortunately, I am unable to refund payment for lessons which are not cancelled on italki at least 24 hours prior to the start of the scheduled lesson. I realise that unforeseen circumstances may arise but due to the way the booking system works, I believe this is the way I can be fair to all students.
