Hi! My name is Madina. My pronouns are she/her. I was born in the US, but have lived all around the world. Message me to see where I am now!
I'm a lover of languages because it makes me feel more connected to the world and the people in it. I speak English, Spanish, Portuguese, and American Sign Language. I taught myself most of these languages using the same methodology that I am going to use with you, so you know it works!
My hobbies include yoga, playing the ukulele, dancing like no one is watching, solo backpacking the world, and reading self-help books.Ik als leerkracht
Depending on what you need, I can be your teacher, coach, mentor, and friend.
- I can teach you to be a more confident speaker, writer, and overall person.
- I can coach you through your professional goals, challenges, and milestones
- I can mentor you if you're a language teacher looking to grow your skills
- I can be a guaranteed friendly face and sympathetic ear during life's ups and downs
I am genuinely interested in getting to know you: your likes and dislikes, strengths and weaknesses, dreams and fears. I will help you to achieve not only your English goals but your professional and personal ones as well.
With me, you will learn more than just a language :) Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
If you are a student between the levels of B1-C2 (intermediate to advanced) who has already spent a lot of time studying grammar and has enough vocabulary to maintain an everyday conversation, then these classes are for you!
During our classes, I want you to speak as much as possible, which is why I don't teach grammar. However, I will always give you feedback on grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary mistakes. Although I speak other languages, my classes are taught 100% in English. You can learn 1-on1 or in group lessons with your family and friends. The best part? NO HOMEWORK! Instead, I’ll give you voluntary weekly challenges that help take what we learn and use it in real life.Mijn lesmateriaal

Madina is one of the best teachers you can have on Italkie - especially if you care about getting feedback after every single lesson, but also if you just want to spend time in a pleasant atmosphere while practicing your English conversations 😀.
She's always well-prepared, provides interesting materials, and truly cares about you!

Said the sun to the moon,
You cannot stay.
Change
Says the moon to the waters,
All is flowing.
Change
Says the fields to the grass,
Seed-time and harvest,
Chaff and grain.
Are you ready to change?
Says the thought to the heart, to let her pass
All your life long

Her lesson always "changes" something in my way of thinking!🔝
