日本語能力試験N2 | Русский язык B1Me as a Teacher
I specialize in building confidence in speaking, listening, reading, and writing. I have been teaching for 5+ years and have worked with students of all ages.
I specialize in linguistics and am particularly interested in helping students of English practice their pronunciation. I love to share tips about aspiration, common pronunciation mistakes, word stress, sentence rhythm, and register (e.g. formal English vs. informal English).My lessons & teaching style
I offer conversational, pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary classes. I will work with you to complete your language learning goal, whether that's to pass a test or to live and work in America. I teach students of all levels, and reinforce knowledge from daily life conversations to breaking news stories.

Another great class with Sam today. We worked on my grammar in speaking and writing, focusing on the mistakes I tend to make most. Super helpful! Looking forward to the next :)

I was very nervous taking a lesson online for the first time but she explained before we started a conversation how her class works to reassure me. Also, she mentioned some grammar points and pronunciation that I can improve which are very valuable to me. Thank you Sam sensei !

We discussed about news I read in NPR. We talked about what happened around us. Sam has patience to wait for me to complete sentences. Very nice talk!!!

I had an excellent first lesson with Sam. She’s patient, well-organized, and very attentive when it comes to highlighting grammar mistakes in a constructive way. I feel really lucky to have found her on italki, and I’m looking forward to continuing our lessons!
