I was born and raised in London, and am an enthusiastic lover of the English language and culture. Growing up in London has made me feel like a citizen of the world rather than a specific country. I've lived all my life surrounded by people of literally every culture and background imaginable. I am a people person and so love to engage and learn about new ways of life and thinking. Side note, I LOVE singing and am very passionate about all kinds of music, especially jazz and soul. I am very interested in psychology, history and philosophy and many more things! I am a practising Yogi and a Yoga Instructor in my spare time.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I am very aware and sensitive to the challenges posed by English pronunciation, grammar and idiom. I am also very switched on to the specific aspects of English that are challenging for speakers of particular languages, in regards to sounds and rules not existing in some languages. My main goal is to make you feel comfortable enough to make mistakes and have fun whilst improving your English speaking skills!
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I mainly offer conversational classes as this is the most important and efficient way of learning a language as you have to engage in a live discussion and you are offered the opportunity at immediate understanding and replying. I believe the best way to learn a language is by throwing yourself in the deep end and learning to feel confident in expressing yourself as early as possible; this aids progress much faster than studying technicalities. It is more relaxed and natural for the learner.
Learning with Liv has been a real joy!❤️
She has a beautiful, clear accent that’s a pleasure to listen to, and she can effortlessly keep up a conversation on any topic!
I really appreciate how gently and respectfully she makes corrections — it never feels discouraging, only helpful. Her positive energy and good mood are contagious, making every lesson something to look forward to🌟

I'll like to share my positive experience with Olivia. She has been a fantastic guide and her teaching style is both effective and engaging. I've seen real improvement in my language skills thanks to her guidance.
What I appreciate most is her patience and her ability to create a comfortable space for questions and doubts, which has boosted my confidence.
Olivia goes beyond teaching – she is a supportive mentor. Her feedback and genuine interest in my progress make each session feel valuable.
If you're in search of a dedicated, adaptable, and knowledgeable English teacher on iTalki, I highly recommend Olivia.

It was my first lesson with this teacher. At the beginning of the class, she encouraged me to feel more confident about using English as a foreign language. She has a good understanding of different countries’ histories, including my own, which motivated me to speak a lot on a wide range of topics throughout the lesson. While discussing these topics, she also shared many insights, making the class naturally effective for listening practice as well. Although it was a one-hour lesson, it felt even more valuable than expected. Thank you.

Olivia is a wonderful interlocutor. I have no idea how it is possible to be so involved in a conversation as she is. She has an absolutely unique life experience, which turns our classes into something casual and interesting. I do appreciate our lessons because of the ability to have the discussion about everything I want. She manages to naturally adjust herself to you and to your interests. It's insane.

Olivia is a fatastic teacher! Our conversations cover many different topics, all of them fun, engaging and sometimes challenging (which is great!), both on the level of English, and on the level of ideas/opinions. She provides a very comfortable, honest and safe environment and her English, accent and expressions are easily understandable and more importantly very human. Thanks to her, my fear of English conversation disappeared and my confidence grew drastically! Thank you!
