(No AI!) 🇺🇸 American English speaker with 7 years' experience on iTalki 🌟 ✨Hi, everyone! My name's Layla and I'm here to help you improve your English language skills. ☀️ I help intermediate to advanced speakers who want to improve their spoken English through conversational lessons, with attention to vocabulary and grammar. 📚My degree is in French and Philosophy and, in my spare time, I enjoy studying languages (French and Serbian); traveling; and hanging out with my cats, Mila and Tačka. 🔉 As a self-study learner, I understand the need to practice with native speakers in order to maintain and improve your language skills. In my experience, the best thing for you to do is to SPEAK. 📖 My students have described me as patient, helpful, encouraging, and assiduous. :) I always want to make sure that you feel comfortable speaking, and that I am not judging you. 🌟 In class, my goal is to have YOU speaking most of the time. ✨ Hope to see you soon. ✨ 💻 (Note: I do not use AI during our lessons, and I do not use AI to prepare for our lessons either. I want us to use real-life language generated by US!)

Layla is a great communicator. She was especially good at letting me continue speaking. I was comfortable throughout the class. She also showed me how I could paraphrase what I said to sound more like native speakers. Awesome tutor!

I've booked a lesson with Layla for my 14-year-old son. The teacher managed to make him speak most of the time (though it was his first experience in talking with a native speaker). Layla is great at creating a friendly and comfortable atmosphere at the class which is very important for successeful language learning. We are very lucky to have Layla as a teacher. Highly-recommended!

I liked our lesson a lot!:) It was comfortable and relaxed, and it's important for me, because usually I always in a rush, and with Layla I feel I can take my time, do not run, but take a pause and have an enjoyable talk with someone very attentive. So I felt welcomed and more peaceful inside than usually

We have discussed recent tragic events all around the world, a bit of politics, and traveling. If I'd had as many red marks and corrections on my homework in the 3d grade, my father would have spanked me. Despite (or thanks to) this fact, It was the best lesson I have ever had. Thank you, Layla!
