Dynamic and approachable French and English teacher with 9 years of experience Hello! My name is Erica, a Canadian-American French and English teacher ready to help you learn. I was born in Montreal and grew up speaking English, French and Mandarin. When I moved to the U.S. at 7 years old, I lost most of my French as I was surrounded by English. I have since spent much of my life relearning and refining my French skills, and now love to share my passion for learning languages through teaching French and English. I hold a DALF C2 certification in French, the highest level of French as a second language that one can attain. I have taught French in both private and group settings for the last 9 years to both English and Spanish speakers, and love to focus on practical phrases, pronunciation, grammar, and culture. Additionally, I spent a school year in France teaching English to over 400 students, and recognize the common challenges that learners may have with English pronunciation, vocabulary, comprehension, and expression. I believe that the best way to learn a language is through conversation and enjoyment. My lessons will be tailored to your particular interests, with specific emphasis on any particular challenges you face in your target language. Whether it be through helping you draft a work email, constructing questions and ideas, or giving you tips on cultural references and slang, I am here to help! I love meeting and connecting with new people from different cultures, so I'm excited to meet you and hope to see you on Italki soon. :)

English Fluency & Pronunciation Coach | Native English Speaker & Opera Singer Hello! My name is Kinneret, and I am an American-Israeli opera singer based in New York City and Tel Aviv. I was born and raised in the United States and earned my Bachelor’s degree cum laude from Hunter College, where I studied languages, literature, and history. As both a professional singer and a lifelong language enthusiast, I specialize in helping adult students improve their English fluency, pronunciation, confidence, and communication skills for work, travel, presentations, public speaking, and everyday life. In addition to English and Hebrew, I have studied Italian, French, German, and Russian extensively. Having learned multiple languages myself, I understand the challenges students face with grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and sounding natural in conversation. My background as an opera singer gives me a unique advantage when teaching pronunciation. I can not only model sounds clearly, but also explain how to produce them through tongue, lip, and mouth placement. I also understand how different languages influence pronunciation and can help students overcome common difficulties. Every student learns differently, so I tailor lessons to each individual’s goals, learning style, and interests. Whether you’re looking to communicate more confidently at work, prepare for a presentation, improve your speaking skills, or simply feel more comfortable using English in daily life, I strive to make lessons both effective and enjoyable. I look forward to working with you!
