English Classes in Pittsburgh, PA

Certified ESL Teacher – Practical Fluency & Speaking for Adults & Kids Hey there, I’m Alex and I'm from the U.S. I’ve spent the last eight years teaching English in China, Spain, and now online. My years abroad have been some of the most meaningful experiences of my life, and they’ve shaped how I connect with my students and with others. At my core, I’ve always been and still am a traveler and history lover who enjoys discovering new places and learning about the world. My number one priority as your teacher is creating a comfortable and supported space to practice spoken English. I know what it’s like to learn a new language and freeze up because I didn't get enough speaking practice with foreign languages myself. Lessons with me are always relaxed, friendly, and centered on you, your level, your pace, and your goals. We’ll focus on whatever you want to improve and on what helps you feel comfortable and confident when speaking. I like to base our classes on real-life conversations, where we build vocabulary and fluency in a natural way. I’ll also help you strenghten your pronunciation and grammar as we talk.

I have a lot of experience in teaching and tutoring. In Israel I taught in elementary school for two years and when I moved to the states I taught in a Hebrew school, for a few years, all ages as well as private lessons, and tutoring people before Hebrew exams. While I was teaching at the Hebrew school I also took Hebrew classes at my university to understand better how to teach it and help my students more. I am very patient with my students and won't rest until they will succeed. I believe I can reach my students with my humor and doing the best I can to make the lessons fun. Everyone is welcome, no matter what level you are at. I am committed to your success!

I want to help my students speak English with confidence, understanding, and correct pronunciation! Taking walks, working outside in my yard, reading books, looking at animals - these are some of my favorite things. I really like giraffes and the color purple.

I teach Polish, my native language, and English, which I use daily in personal and professional contexts. My lessons are stress-free, engaging, and tailored to your goals.

Please check out Udemy's English course Amber & Nikki's English conversations and test prep! Motivating language students online can be a difficult task since you don't get to meet them in person. In general, I don't believe it's effective to assign numerous grammar lessons. My lesson plan for the beginner to intermediate learners focuses on conversational Japanese, practicing repetition of sentences describing their daily lives in present or past tenses. This would build their vocabulary and grammatical skills in the process. Through my lessons, students have demonstrated to be more fluent and motivated.

Pasensiya na po! 数年間前に独学で日本語を勉強し始めました。言語力まだまだですが、少なくとも日常会話できます。今まで日本に２回行ったが事あります。次の機会を楽しみにしています！よろしくお願いします。 One of my main goals is to help others be more motivated to learn English, especially through personal interests and hobbies. I also love learning about new cultures while sharing my own. The way I teach will be purely conversational. I do not use textbooks when teaching, but you are more than welcome to bring your own! If you have any specific questions on things like grammar, I would be glad to answer them. I accept students of all levels. Having conversations as a beginner it may be difficult, but don't worry! I am here to slowly help you get used to speaking. It's more important to enjoy communicating rather than getting everything perfect.

It brings me immense satisfaction to not only facilitate language skill development but also gain insights into diverse cultures through my students. With nearly five years of teaching experience, I have honed my expertise in test preparation and conversational practice.

Certified professional English teacher (CELTA, B.A.-English) and native speaker I really enjoy getting to know my students—not only in terms of their linguistic needs and capacities, but also as human beings with interests and experiences vastly different from my own who have a lot to teach me about life and about the world. I welcome diverse viewpoints and I appreciate honesty and humility. Humility is extremely important when you’re learning, because learning involves making mistakes. I know this can be intimidating, so I will always try to create a safe and familiar space in which you can feel comfortable taking risks and trying new things in English, knowing that if you do make a mistake, I can help you turn it into an excellent learning opportunity.

Super Welcoming for Chinese Beginners 😊 Over the past years, I've taught Chinese and English to thousands of students. Teaching Chinese to an American CEO was my most memorable teaching experiences. He was a beginner to Chinese when we started, but now he can communicate effectively with Chinese companies without needing a translator. I also taught English to middle school students. They were very engaged and excited in my class because they always paid a lot attention to either win a game or complete a task. I really enjoy teaching because I can see my students improvements with my help. As a languege learner myself, I believe that having fun in the learning process is very important to keep the motivation up and up.

(Please see "About Me" section) My native language is Korean and I learned English as I live in the US.

I think of it as a long journey or a marathon, but while having lots of fun along the way. Just as a journey or a marathon has a destination and a finish line, we do need consistency and endurance as well as short and long-term goals. Everyone is unique - that makes this journey or marathon interesting!

CELTA-Certified English Teacher | Practical English for Work, Life & Conversation Hi! I'm Venessa, a CELTA-certified English teacher and experienced writing educator from the United States. I work primarily with adult learners and love helping people become more confident and effective communicators in English. My professional background is in writing, editing, publishing, and adult education.
