Let's spark a conversation on music, hiking, playing guitar, documentaries, movies, TedTalks, books, cultures, humor, and technology. I'm a low-key photographer. I hate not being able to sleep and I love jazz.

My students are also my teachers. Whenever we start a lesson they learn from me, but in the end, we are both the students. Because my aim is to make you as fluent as possible by talking about things that drive you, or things you are passionate about. I also want to show that it is not hard to learn a language as long as you have your incentive clear, and a personalized method to get you to your goal.

Conversation focus, vocabulary, and pronunciation. Add some role plays, native proverbs, TedTalks, translate songs, Trabalenguas challenges.
Additional info:
I usually do my lessons via Skype.
I suggest doing 30 minutes chunk of lesson at least 2 times per week in order for it to become a habit for a seamless transition to fluency.My teaching material

Leila had asked me to try my hand at writing and we reviewed it and made corrections. It was a very helpful exercise. Merci!

Leila has to be one of the best teachers I have had a class with so far. She is focussed and challenging, but also very friendly!
