Emma
Here to help you prepare for work and study abroad! I’ve been teaching English online on italki since 2015 and before that I taught English in China. I believe that learning a foreign language opens up a whole new world of opportunities, and I would like to help you on this journey. I am a very patient and experienced teacher, and I’m happy to help you improve your English! I believe in a flexible teaching approach tailored to your needs. I will choose the lesson materials based on your English level and goals, and during class I will break the material down and we can approach it one step at a time. Immersion in English is very important, so the sessions will mainly be conducted in English, though I can explain in Chinese or German.

Conversational specialists with TEFL certification! I am a very flexible and open-minded teacher. I specialise in conversational English, but I can teach a variety of subjects, for example professional and business English. We can do whatever you want, however you want! If you require more focused, systematic learning, I am able to do that with you as well. I have taught students of a variety of levels, from the very start at A1 to more advanced C1 and fluent speakers. As you start to get more comfortable with grammar, verb variety etc, we can start increasing difficulty and speed of conversation. But as always, you control what pace you want to learn and speak at!

As a language teacher, my primary goal is to help you unlock your full potential and make the learning process both enjoyable and effective. My teaching philosophy emphasizes the importance of understanding the language in context rather than just memorizing vocabulary or grammar rules. By incorporating real-life scenarios, pre-selected texts, and translation exercises into our lessons, we will work together to build your proficiency in Ukrainian, Russian, or English.
