Greetings! ESL teacher with 10+ years of experience here. I am bilingual which means I grew up speaking 2 languages. Language learning is my passion - as you can see, I am still in the process of acquiring additional languages. I am positive, and I have a fun life which I love. My next goal is to get to C1 level in German, move to a tropical country, teach online, and maybe bartend. I'm also considering going back to a university again.
Me as a Teacher
My focus is specifically on listening, speaking, and pronunciation skills. I am passionate about helping students who still struggle with these, despite trying to learn English for years. This is a big problem for students from East and Central Europe who I have most experience working with.
I will quickly pull you out of this language limbo and help you grow your level. Currently, I do not offer lessons for beginners and for children.
I hold a Bachelor's degree and a Master's degree from the U.S., during which I was lucky to be able to receive some teaching training.
My lessons & teaching style
I have been teaching for 10+ years as a paid teacher and a volunteer. My way of teaching is full language immersion - what is that? For example, even if you use a different language during the lesson, I will keep speaking English to you and/or encourage you to rephrase your thought with a simple English sentence. Or, instead of translating a word directly into your language, I will try to find a synonym or show you a picture.
So no switching, and no translating.
This is a great strategy to immerse you into the language fully, put your brain under pressure and out of your comfort zone, therefore forcing you to understand more and more each time.

One of the best teacher that you can find to improve your speaking skill. Sandra will help you to find a way to help you to help you overcome shyness and any constraints in attempts to talk better. My recommendation.

Great lesson. It was very helpful with my shyness with speaking. The tutor encouraged me and gave a lot of useful suggestions and words. Thank you so much!
