Hi! My name is Elizabeth. I am originally from the United States and am currently studying in Spain. I studied global studies and gender studies in New York City. I have lived for the last ten years in New Orleans, Louisiana. My interests include art, dance, travel, politics, sociology, history, anthropology and learning new languages. I am currently a student of Spanish and am pursuing a gender studies masters degree in Spain.
Me as a Teacher
I want to first understand your goals and build the structure of our class from there. As someone who has experienced Italki as a student and has had different experiences with how helpful different teaching styles are, I have the lived experience of what is helpful as a student learning a new language. I feel that orientating firstly around your goals is most important. Secondly, I feel often the time can pass just chatting without really delving into your problem areas or goals. It will be my goal as your teacher to of course converse naturally, but also I want to remain attentive to that grammatical mistakes aren't repeating and we are making genuine progress in our sessions together!
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is mixed between relaxed and open but also attentive and disciplined and aware of the progress we are making. As I said above, we tend to make similar mistakes as foreign language learners. I want our sessions to be open time to practice speaking but include room for correction and growth. It will be my goal to strike a balance between the two. In terms of content, again the session is dictated by your goals and from there we can cover a range of topics from art to culture to politics to travel, to whatever most interests you.

Elizabeth is kind, helpful, and understanding. When you need a word and can't find it in your head then she will give you several options, which is very helpful in conversation, but also for learning new phrases. Thank you for the great conversation! ❤️

Every class with Elizabeth is a feast for my soul. She is incredibly supportive, warm and friendly. I always feel comfortable and inspired when we talk. Each lesson is filled with interesting conversations: sometimes serious, sometimes fun! And I always come away having learned something new. Studying with Elizabeth not only improves my English but also lifts my mood and builds my confidence :))
