InterestsFoodReadingArtSports & FitnessTravel
Hey there! I'm Cecilia from California. I love travel and I lived in Prague, Czechia for a year and am currently living in Tbilisi, Georgia. I love languages and study Czech, Georgian, and Svan. (do you know it?!) I love to be outdoors, either hiking, swimming, driving, rock climbing or camping. I also love to paint and draw, to dance, write, sing, ready and play piano (but poorly). I am an aerial silks instructor, and perform on occasion with a local circus group. I also practice pole sport, dance, and aerial hoop. Most recently I've started to tattoo!
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher I like to keep the lessons interesting and different each time. I don't assign homework, but suggest my students be mindful in their everyday lives of English, and perhaps enjoy more movies and tv shows in english! I try to keep my lessons as comfortable as possible and establish friendship and connection between my students and myself.
My lessons & teaching style
I love to teach through laughter and interesting topics. I incorporate the students personal interests into my lessons and we often read interesting articles or talk about our passions. On top of the lesson being very conversation based, I really enjoy teaching grammar and sentence structure, learning new vocabulary, and talking about etymology and the history of the English language.

Teacher’s pick
Cecilia is great as a teacher in a variety of ways, but the most prominent thing to notice is her active listening - she's very attentive and asks a lot of questions simultaneously taking notes, guiding, and correcting.

I was a little bit nervous before conversation but Cecilia helped me. She is young , energetic, friendly. She gives me a warm conversation atmosphere during the meeting. And she is a native teacher . Primarily, You should consider this feature if you wanna speak fluently and accent-free.
