NOTE ABOUT SCHEDULING: Evening/weekend time slots are now opened up on a weekly basis
Hello! My name is Kayla and I am an American circus artist from Florida.
I have lived in many states in America as well as in England. While working for Club Med I had to learn to speak french so I understand the pressure to learn a new language and how scary it can be to speak it.
I studied theatre in college and love to help students master pronunciation and grammar so they can speak with ease and fluency.
I love to converse with new people and some of my favorite topics include current events, health & wellness, art, and movies!

Me as a Teacher
I've helped tutor for as long as I can remember. Even in 2nd grade I was helping the 1st grade students with their reading! I love to see people succeed and know that I helped make a difference. I also work as a fitness and circus instructor so I know that tough lessons can take time to master. I am very patient and encouraging.
My lessons & teaching style
I know that not everybody learns the same way. For conversation practice I prefer to correct as things come up so they are fresh in your mind. I also like to use news articles or short stories about topics you like to help you understand grammar and learn new words. I also like to use other resources like games and apps to help you maintain what you learn after our lessons.
I prefer to do conversation based learning but can go over basic lessons as well depending on your interests and goals.

It was my first class at italki, and it was great, despite my anxiety. Very patient and polite teacher with comprehensive way of speaking. In short, strictly recommended)

Kayla is such an amazing teacher. Today in less than a minute she helped me to pronounce a sound that I had been working on for more than a year but never succeeded. It was a miracle for me! Kayla pays close attention to what I say and corrects me meticulously. Her English is beautiful and magnetic. I can’t have enough listening to her. In short, she is the perfect teacher for me. I am sure she will also be the perfect teacher for you. Thank you, Kayla!
