I love watching movies, travelling, photography and connecting with people from different cultures. I would love to teach you Tagalog and Cebuano in a quick and easy way.
Me as a Teacher
I'm excited to be here to teach you Tagalog and Cebuano. I'm passionate about teaching these languages as it's a gateway to connect with the stories, emotions and culture of the Filipino people. Whether you’re learning to speak with family, prepare for travel, or just because you are curious, I'm here to support you.
I'm committed to making your learning journey fun and engaging. I know what it's like to learn something completely new, and I want our classes to feel comfortable, free to make mistakes and celebrate progress, big or small. I'm open to any questions or feedback you have, and I can't wait to get to know each of you along the way.

My teaching style is all about you. I believe in a student-centered approach. This means that our lessons will be customized to your needs, interests and learning pace. I'll encourage you to ask questions, practice conversations and use the language in ways that's meaningful to you.
I'm here to support you to build confidence and explore the language. We’ll learn grammar and vocabulary and spend a lot of time speaking, listening and interacting in real life situations. My goal is to make sure you’re not just memorizing words but truly connecting with the language. I'm here to help you every step of the way.

I’ve a been a regular student of Tagalog with Gina . The more classes I take , the more I get amazed at Gina’s teaching skills .
The classes are well structured , interactive and fun ! Gina is warm and encouraging and creates a safe environment to practice.
She makes each lesson engaging with real life phrases and lots of cultural references.
I’m totally in love with the Filipino culture and Gina makes it so easy to embrace the language learning process.
If you’re someone who wants to learn Tagalog or maybe visit the Philippines ,I highly recommend that you learn Tagalog from Gina . It will be a rewarding experience!

I really appreciate how Gina is active about expanding my Tagalog vocabulary. It feels great to feel like I'm consistently 'leveling up' rather getting stuck with the same beginner materials aka 'tutorial hell'. Again, my Tagalog knowledge is steadily refining and I'm super thankful for that!

Great lesson with Gina! We started with a review. Then we continued learning about "an/han" prefix. Gina also explained the "kita" pronoun and its uses. She provided examples for each usage, which helped me really understand. Gina is really good at combining new things with what we have already learned!

Gina is a very caring and patient teacher, and she pays attention to what I want to learn. She's always happy to make great new original learning materials, and tailor her lesson style and topics from my requests. Her personality is warm and gentle and she's open to chatting about local lifestyle too. She helps me with pronunciation and language structure using practical sample sentences, which also impart some Philippines customs in our lesson.

Having conversational lessons with Gina is such a joy. She does a fantastic job of keeping the conversation interesting, engaging, and really insightful. Anytime I have questions or encounter any difficulties she takes her time in answering and explaining concepts. With her as my Tagalog teacher, I know that I will improve my Tagalog little by little and enjoy learning the language.
