About Me
italki teacher since Apr 11, 2018Interest topicMusicFilms & TV SeriesPets & Animals
My name is Laima.
I am a native Romanian speaker from the Republic of Moldova and also speak Russian as my mother tongue. I have a Licence in Philology of Modern and Classical Languages. I have been working for 12 years as an English and French teacher in a state lyceum with forms from 1st-12th (6-17 year-old students) and also teach Romanian and Russian as second languages to foreign volunteers. I taught a course of English to the Administration Staff of the Local Business Incubator, Town of Leova. I give private off- and on-line lessons to students of different ages and levels.
Dear Student, I would like to share my knowledge and experience with You!Me as a Teacher
I love my job.
My aim is to make my students enjoy learning the language and feel free and confident when using it. Each student is a personality that’s why I have an individual aproach based on their interests and needs, and I try to find the most efficient methods and make classes funny and relaxed. My lessons are based on the four skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking.
I am ready to help You, my Student, with anything you need.
I am passionate about playing the violin, watching National Geographic, playing chess and other intellectual games. I also spend a lot of time studying professional articles and books and I enjoy creating my own teaching materials for classes.My lessons & teaching style
The process of teaching-learning a language is like a ”cuisine” and how good it is depends on the chef...
During our lessons I will teach you how ”to prepare different dishes” (this is how to communicate in different situations so that you and the other participants can feel good and comfortable). We will use various ingredients and spices, such as grammar rules and vocabulary, pronunciation and intonation, and I will provide you with the necessary ”kitchen tools”- the necessary techniques to help you with all that work.
I am here to encourage and help you do great things: speaking a new language, descovering new cultures and, of course, developing your personality. Are you ready? :)My teaching material

Multumesc mult! The last two lessons have been especially helpful. You have presented quite complex topics in a simple and approachable way, and I find your materials, including the exercises, extremely helpful and by far the best and most comprehensive explanations of the plural definite article I have seen!

Todays lesson was very engaging with great conversational practice. Laima was able to correct my mistakes and we had a very productive lesson. Will absolutely have more in the future.
