Kids English 6+ | Speaking & Conversation | Native US Teacher | 8+ Years Experience 🙅♀️Adults 👍Kids English Hello! Hola! 你好! I’m Vanessa from San Francisco, California, USA. I’ve been teaching English online for 8 years, including 4 years mainly teaching Chinese students on DaDaABC. I teach children aged 6+ who already have some basic English (A1+). 我教的是6岁以上、已经具备一定英语基础(A1+)的孩子。请在预订前仔细阅读课程说明。My classes focus on real-life English through conversation, games, and topics students enjoy. I’m not a textbook-style teacher. I believe learning should feel fun, natural, and connected to real life. As a full-time traveler and home chef, I love bringing culture, food, and everyday experiences into class. English should feel fun, engaging, and useful in real life. When students enjoy class and actually participate, they learn faster and build real confidence using English outside the classroom. My lessons are interactive, interest-based, and focused on real communication—not textbooks. I use games, conversations, and topics students enjoy to keep them engaged and speaking. 教学风格:不使用传统教材,通过真实生活话题和互动方式学习英语。 ⏱ Course Length: 请仔细阅读每门课程的描述,以确定您的孩子在没有任何指导的情况下真正适合哪个级别。 • 30 min — A1+ (Age 6+) • 45 min— A2+( Age 8+) • 60 min — B1+ (Age 10+) 🙅♀️90 min 📌 Policies • Students must attend independently (no parent help) 学生需独立上课,家长请勿提示或帮助回答 • No show = class complete • 1-on-1 classes only (charged per student) I don’t teach from textbooks. English is learned through real-life topics and interaction, not memorization. 我不用教科书教英语。英语学习是通过真实生活中的话题和互动进行的,而不是死记硬背。

I’m Yuri, an English and Russian teacher from St. Petersburg with 10+ years of experience, a Linguistics degree from St. Petersburg State University, CELTA and Cambridge DELTA qualifications. I specialise in IELTS and Academic English, teach TOEFL, and prepare students for TORFL (ТРКИ) as a certified examiner.

I’ve helped hundreds of students achieve IELTS 7.0–8.5, and I have achieved IELTS Band 9.0 myself, including 9.0 in Writing and Speaking. I work with learners from beginner to advanced level.

C2 Proficiency Grade A, Cambridge |Textbook Plan| Students stay 350+ lessons English Fluency Through Psychology-Based Activation Since 1984, I’ve helped students turn passive knowledge into fluent speech through a clear, structured English course—not random conversation. My method uses activation principles from educational psychology to help you retrieve words faster, speak more naturally, and build real fluency through guided practice. My course is divided into eight levels and uses eight books, with lessons based on Oxford and Cambridge textbooks. We work on reading, listening, speaking, writing, vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. Speaking is central because the goal is not just to understand English, but to activate it in real communication. I hold Cambridge C2 Proficiency (Grade A), the Cambridge Teaching Knowledge Test (top grades in three modules), and seven postgraduate diplomas, including English Language Teaching Methodology, Educational Psychology, Neuropsychopedagogy, and Neuroscience. I’m also doing a bachelor’s degree in Speech Therapy, which gives me deeper insight into language acquisition, pronunciation, and how the brain processes language. My method combines books, structure, speaking practice, and educational psychology. I help you activate what you know, build confidence, and speak more naturally. My long-term students often stay for 350+ lessons because they see steady progress. Many students have achieved top exam scores, received promotions, and successfully immigrated. Please read their stories in my feedback.
