About Me
italki teacher since Feb 7, 2020InterestsArtTravelFilms & TV SeriesFoodMedical & Healthcare
Watch my video speaking in all my languages. I like calling myself a ''world citizen'' with a serious case of wanderlust. I've been blessed with the privilege of a very international upbringing; I've lived in 7 different countries growing up which gave me the possibility to broaden my horizons, experience new cultures, meet interesting people, and learn new languages in their native countries. I also have a passion for architecture and design and love to dance, taking pictures, scuba diving, skiing, playing tennis, and listening to jazz :)Me as a Teacher
I'm fun, open-minded and love having conversations about various topics. I always give my students the opportunity to choose the topic of conversation they're interested in (if they want to) and then I find relevant material and resources to prepare a class. I'm extremely patient and supportive and never tired of giving explanations when required.My lessons & teaching style
Please note that in accordance with the website's terms and conditions, you cannot reschedule or cancel a lesson in the last 24h before the class takes place. My lessons are designed especially for each individual student after the trial lesson when I evaluate the student's level and are mainly based on conversation and oral comprehension while of course covering other parts of the language such as correct pronunciation, grammar, and syntax when necessary. I always try to keep them fun and of course interactive to keep the motivation going! At each class, we want to learn something new and also practice/recap newly acquired knowledge.My teaching material

If you truly want to improve in learning or improving in English or French, I definitely recommend Helena. She's extremely kind, motivational and has a great sense of humor, and if you make a mistake, she will encourage and be extremely positive. Merci Beacoup Helena!

Helena is simply the best.! :))
I have never been able to talk with anyone else in that many languages at once.
Dès le début elle me fait progresser dans la langue française à travers des discussions informelles mais pensives en même temps. Ensemble nous abordons des thèmes actuels et intéressants qui fait améliorer mes compétences de la langue vivante.
Елена настоящий суперполиглот, владеющая много язиков. Она может аккуратно выступать с речами на каждом из них и знает как адекватно изправлять ошибки учеников.
Nicht nur beherrscht sie fliessend all diese Sprachen, sondern auch hat sie in vielen Ländern gelebt, wo ihr alle eingehenden Kenntnisse der entsprechenden Kulturen beigebracht wurden.
