I speak also Italian, some Hebrew (advanced) and some Arabic (lower intermediate), so I know what it is like to study a difficult language!

Me as a Teacher

Students tell me I am patient, helpful and professional, and I make them feel relaxed and comfortable. They tell me they really like my teaching style. My journey to teaching English started by doing language exchange with many people, through which I realized that I was able to help them learn effectively. I also realized I had a strong passion and patience for teaching! This is how I decided to become a professional English teacher!! :) I started as a tutor, then I got a certificate to teach English as a second language. I have had many students from all over the world, some of whom have come back for many sessions.

My lessons & teaching style

My classes are very CONVERSATIONAL. I'll help you with grammar when I see you need it. I give helpful CORRECTIONS :) I have many lesson options: ~ Simple conversation ~ Reading texts for pronunciation & conversation on the topic ~ Practice explaining things in your own words ~ Describing images & using the images to practice verb tenses ~ Interview preparation ~ Exam preparation ~ Grammar & verb tense practice ~ Writing I can help also BEGINNERS who speak ITALIAN, HEBREW OR ARABIC! Se parli ITALIANO, ti posso aiutare anche se sei al livello di principiante! Non preoccuparti, tu provi a parlare e io ti aiuto :) : ) אשמח לעזור לך גם אם את\אתה ברמת מתחילים.
