I also have a background in music and I have a masters degree in opera performance. I completed my training to become a TEFL certified English teacher through TEFL Toulouse in France in 2020.

It was my trial class with her, and I felt really comfortable with Erika. She is so patient and kind. She helped me with my pronunciation and sentence structure. Thank you, Erika! 🙂

A wonderful teacher — patient and attentive to pronunciation. The first 45 minutes are spent on conversation, followed by 15 minutes focused on correcting pronunciation and grammar. She’s one of the rare teachers on Italki who truly knows how to encourage students. I also love her cheerful laughter — it’s always so infectious and uplifting
