Hi, I am American from NY, a native speaker of English and Spanish. I have been teaching languages for 7 years to children, teenagers, and adults. πŸ’ƒπŸ½ I love to dance, laugh, swim, play soccer, and spend time with my friends and family. 🌎 I love meeting new people from many countries! πŸ“š My preparation is: a B.A., American Civilization, Brown University, + an M.S., Journalism, Columbia University. ✍🏼 + I was a journalist for 8 years so I can help you with writing 🌟 πŸ‘‰πŸ½ I specialize in: -Interactive, fun learning -Conversation -Grammar games -Pronunciation -Culture -IELTS! Tools we'll use: games, podcasts, songs, grammar sites, videos, and homework activities. See you soon! I have a lot of experience helping students raise their IELTS scores and gain fluency in both English and Spanish. I like to make things fun but cover all the fundamentals. Practicing conversation is the key! I have most experience teaching native speakers of: -Portuguese -Spanish -English -Mandarin -Russian -Korean First, I talk to students to discover their needs. Then I design individualized lessons to best help them meet their goals. I like to use many resources for teaching: grammar websites, podcasts, videos, news articles, discussion questions, songs, and TV shows, among others. After class, I will send notes and homework within a few days so you can study at home.

She is so fun and she makes learning Spanish enjoyable. I felt like I was really learning a lot compared to other Spanish classes and programs that I've tried

Franziska is so helpful and caring! I have had lessons with her for more than one year now and feel that I have improved incredibly. Her style of teaching and willingness to go above and beyond make every lesson fun and enjoyable. Whenever I need anything or think something might be helpful, she is always willing to help (making homework/notecards, finding videos to practice listening, sharing resources, etc.). I highly recommend Franziska for anyone interested in having fun while gaining true language skills that really stick with you!

I was Ms. Renata's student a few years ago, but I had to terminate my writing class to concentrate on my postgraduate master's program. I am glad that I can still be her student after all those years. Together, we can analyse the paragraph structure, the wordings, and how to use the transition phrases, etc. Ms. Renata patiently shows me and guides me on how to do it correctly, hand by hand, with clear examples and explanations. I believe this is an essential process to build a solid writing foundation. One step at a time, I am confident that my English level will improve after a certain period.
