English Classes in Washington, DC

Experienced professional teacher with a love for language learning I've been teaching English professionally for ten years to students from over 50 countries. I am fluent in Spanish, and I began my teaching career in Bogota, Colombia. I love analyzing language and working with students to understand it in a communicative way. My biggest hope is that my classes will give students the tools they need to use English confidently for their travel, study, or professional goals. For lessons I use as much authentic material as possible (real articles, videos, etc), plus personalized worksheets if needed to tackle the occasional grammar or vocab topic.

Professional, certified private or small group lesson ESL teacher- all ages- full-time since 2011 I began teaching English to immigrants in 2003. After graduating from university and traveling for a bit, I became a certified English language teacher. I started my professional career in Turkey in 2011, and I’ve been teaching full-time ever since. I lived in Turkey for 10 years, and now I split my time between Turkey and the U.S.. When I'm not teaching, I'm spending time outside, spending time with friends and family, cooking, climbing, and reading. People would describe me as genuine, kind, inquisitive, and offbeat. I'm a teacher who spends time on my students outside of lessons. I send notes to my students after every lesson, I help students who need something small edited or proofread, and I spend time learning about the student's native language and finding quick solutions to the problems that they may face. In my lessons, I meet the student in the middle. After I assess them, I learn what they're looking for and what they need. I not only teach but I am also a coach, a guide, and a tutor. Lessons depend entirely on the student's needs. Typically, I include variety in my lessons. For example, if the student needs grammar lessons, I will teach through speaking, writing, giving lots of examples, repeating a lot, and most importantly giving the student a safe place to practice what they learned and ask all the questions they want. **If you don't see a lesson time on my teacher calendar, please ask! I might be available.*

Certified TEFL American English Teacher, helps you speak with confidence! When it comes to teaching English as a foreign language I focus on the language aquisition approach.

Thanks for reading and I hope to work with you soon!

Knowledgeable, fun and patient teacher with years of experience! I like to make the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable. Learning should be fun!

U.S -Based Linguist, Medical Interpreter, TESOL Chinese/Japanese/English Professional Teacher I hold two Masters degrees from the University of Colorado - Japanese Language and Civilization, and Linguistics. The former provided me with extensive training in translation, interpretation, and literary analysis from both historical and modern perspectives. Linguistics offered me the theoretical and practical basis for teaching a foreign language. I am especially interested in applying phonetic and phonological strategies to classroom teaching in order to prepare students for a native-like pronunciation and intuition. I am a native Chinese Mandarin speaker with Japanese heritage. With the educational training mentioned above, I am capable of teaching both languages.

Improve your English by having real conversations with an experienced teacher I have 4 years of experience teaching English on online platforms. My methodology is to push you to learn new things and discuss different topics that are outside of your comfort zone. My focus is on conversational fluidity. I want you to feel comfortable speaking about different topics that you may not have any prior knowledge about beforehand. Every class is a little bit different in that I don't follow a set agenda. I will always challenge you to learn new words and to speak with confidence. I have a background in technology and writing that sets me apart from most other teachers. I work with students with an intermediate to advanced level (B1-C1). My focus is on conversational English but I can help you build your skills in speaking, reading, listening, and writing. With each course you will be able to express yourself more fluently. It is about being confident and not being afraid of making mistakes. I will help you believe in yourself. I never stop learning languages. I speak Spanish, French, and English and I am learning Portuguese. I understand how difficult learning a language can be but I 'm here to make it easy for you! I give courses to adult students who have an intermediate level in English and want help to advance to the next level. Please note that I don't give classes for kids. If you want a teacher for your kids, there are many teachers who have that specialty. You can book a trial lesson with me to see if my style is a good fit for you!

Hi, I'm Silver! I've been fascinated by languages since I was a kid, and for the past year I've been learning Spanish myself on italki. That experience taught me something important: the progress you make when you actually speak out loud (not just study grammar rules) is life-changing. It's actually why I decided to start teaching English. I'm new to teaching, but I bring real empathy to the process, because I'm going through the exact same journey as a learner right now. I know what it feels like to stumble over words, to feel nervous speaking to a native speaker, and to have that breakthrough moment when a conversation finally clicks. So.. what's your English goal? Are you looking to speak more confidently, prepare for work or travel, or just get more comfortable having real conversations?

Learn to Speak English Naturally with a Friendly, Experienced Teacher Hi, I’m Dylan! I’m an English teacher with five years of online teaching experience, and my lessons focus primarily on conversation practice. My goal is to give you plenty of time to speak, express your ideas, and become more comfortable using English in real conversations. We can talk about your interests, daily life, travel, culture, current topics, or anything else you enjoy discussing. As a language learner myself, I understand how difficult it can be to speak without overthinking or worrying about mistakes. My lessons are relaxed, friendly, and supportive, making them a good fit for shy learners and anyone who wants regular speaking practice in a comfortable environment. During our conversations, I can help you notice mistakes, use more natural vocabulary and expressions, and communicate your ideas more clearly. I’ll adapt my corrections to your preferences, whether you want frequent feedback or prefer to focus on speaking freely. I’ve also studied Japanese for over four years, which has helped me better understand the challenges of learning and communicating in another language. However, I welcome students from all backgrounds and language levels. Please note that my lessons are conversation-focused rather than textbook-based or exam-preparation courses. Let’s enjoy meaningful conversations and build your confidence one lesson at a time. I look forward to meeting you!
