Living in Bandung, Indonesia

I was born and raised in Bandung, Indonesia. Teaching is my calling and a daily job that I have been enjoying since I was 18 years old. I started by teaching in Sunday school, then the following year I taught soft skills lessons for preschool, primary and high school for five years. Continued until now I have taught in formal institutions for seven years from preschool to university level. I am currently working as a part time teacher and practice as a psychologist. I was very blessed with many great teachers when I was studying in school. Many of my colleagues at school are also very inspiring teachers. Their presence always reminds me that being a teacher is learning to serve and be a blessing to others. I hope that my presence can inspire and answer the needs of the people I teach. As a teacher, I am so happy if my students can be open up and give feedback on my teaching so that I can teach them better. The lessons that I share are practical and can be applied in everyday conversation. The main thing that will continue to be honed is the basic and general concepts of grammar. Once the basic concepts have been mastered, we move on to topics with more complex levels. You can also request topics according to your interests so that learning can be relevant. All topics discussed are for language learning purposes. I use various methods (video-audio learning, articles, games, true stories of certain characters, and so on) so that you don't feel bored while studying. Happy learn...

I've just started working with Ira. I learned a bit of Bahasa Indonesia informally when I lived in Indonesia, but I now want to consolidate and learn with more structure. We have started off with basic review and daily words. For me, I appreciate that Ira conducts all of the lesson in Indonesian. It helps me improve and remember words I forget. Equally, if I can't speak in Indonesian I'll revert to English and she can understand/translate back to Indonesian. Thanks Ira, sampai minggu depan.

Indonesian now coming together for me. Ira is so patient. I didn’t seem to make progress in the beginning. Now I am doing much better. This is how most of my language learning projects have gone. Indonesian is my 7th.

Another good lesson with Ira. We spent most of the lesson practising speaking (which is my number 1 priority). She was also very encouraging and patient with me when I was trying to construct sentences and questions 😊 See you next week Ira !

If you are patient and do the work you are work likely to succeed in learning languages.
