After this, I am able to build lessons according to your preferences and goals.

vocabulary

This is a trial lesson to see if we're a good learning match. It's basically us interviewing each other through conversation, and sharing our thoughts about learning languages.  We can master some small talk, or dive into the nitty gritty of nuanced English, building on top of what you know already. 

I truly look forward to hearing from you!
-Mark

At best practice makes perfect, at worst it makes permanent! This class will focus on developing proper accent habits, how to train them, and learning several accent tecniques that you can put into practice everytime you study. We'll focus on a technique called "Shadowing" and start slowly. We have a host of materials at our service; we'll find what works best for you. Even if your English gets rusty or unused for a while, the good muscle memory of accent training will never leave you!

Develop good accent habits forever

Have you ever had a song stuck in your head? In this class we'll try to put as many songs in your head as possible. According to your musical tastes (and some of mine I hope!) we will take advantage of one of the most amazing phenomena in the world: musical memory. I play guitar, piano, drums, do vocals and compose music for platforms and audiovisual projects, so we can write songs together as well. We can speak about the song--it's history, construction, and harmony--but most importantly, we can SING and LEARN IT BY HEART! This class is for musicians and non musicians alike.

Singing in English

Do you have an urgent need to improve your English for work, travel or relationships? Are you ready to dedicate a few hours a day in order to finally break through plateaus and arrive at a closer connection with the language, one that is more meaningful and permament?

Zeroing in on daily meetings, this module is the crème de la crème for learning large amounts of vocabulary and really assimilating sentence structure, flow and accent. It will keep you on track and reviewing the material you learn with "spaced repetition" training. Daily writing assignments will be corrected in a video format, and then discussed briefly in class. Weak points will be diagnosed and converted into strengths. Our goal is to learn as many new words and phrases as possible in this time (fine tuning the review process). Upon finishing this module, it is advisable that for at least 3 months you should do bi-weekly reviews via flashcards, wordlists or with other Italki teachers to foment long term memory connections.

The plan:
1) Plan a trip (or at least purchase a ticket) to a country where English is spoken. This establishes a timeframe for you--a goal. (I recommend choosing a date 2-3 months away).
2) 3 days on, "1 day "off." 5 days on 2 days "off" can also work for those with busy schedules.
I place the word off in quotes because you will not be learning new material that day, but rather reviewing on thse "off" days.

Admittedly, it is an intense schedule, but the advantage is that very little effort is wasted, so you can pack roughly one year of classroom learning into 4-6 weeks. When you finally visit an English speaking country, this immersion will help cement all your hard work, build confidence and aplomb and you just may be flabbergasted at how fluent your English has become!

In this class we will do plenty of exam preparation so that you feel calm and confident on the big day. We can look at all of the skills in this lesson, and focus on the area that you feel needs the most practice!

Exam Preparation - IELTS, FCE, CAE, CPE

I took the intensive 4 week course and taught pre-intermediate and upper-intermediate classes of up to 20 adult students from various cultural backgrounds. I used a variety of course books and authentic materials to tailor lessons according to the analysis of students’ needs. I led and observed lessons, focusing on receptive and productive skills and language systems.

This is confirmation that I worked in The Anglo Mexican Foundation.

I studied French and Spanish language including modules in translation and interpreting. I also studied French and Hispanic culture and took modules such as French Cinema and Mexican Muralism. During my third year of study I spent six months in Paris at the Sorbonne Nouvelle and six months in Spain at the Universidad de Sevilla.

🧸 About My English Lessons for Kids 🎈

Hello! 👋 I’ve been teaching English to children online since 2017, helping students aged 5 to 15 build confidence and have fun while learning! 🌈

With my Bachelor’s degree and TESOL certification, I create fun, interactive, and effective lessons designed to make your child love learning English. 💬✨

Every class includes games 🎯, songs 🎵, colorful visuals 🎨, and speaking activities 🗣️ that keep kids engaged and motivated. I always adapt my materials to each child’s age, level, and interests — whether they’re learning their first English words or improving grammar and pronunciation. 📚💡

Your child will not only learn English — they’ll enjoy it! 💖

Let’s make learning English an exciting adventure together! 🚀

📚 “English Made Easy for Kids – Learn, Play, Grow!” 🐻

Ich habe ein Bachelorabschluss und ein TESLO Zertifikat

Ich arbeite als online Lehrkraft seit 2017. Ich spezialisiere mich darauf Sprachen als Fremdsprachen zu unterrichten.

Das war eine der erfolgreichsten und groessten online Schulen in China. Danach war ich selbst staendige Lehrerin.

Hi! I'm Tara, and I'm a native English speaker from Canada. I am currently residing in Portugal!

Before becoming a tutor, I spent over 13 years working as a Probation Officer in Canada, supporting people from all walks of life. That experience gave me invaluable transferable skills-like patience, active listening, and clear communication- which I now bring to every lesson.

I believe these skills can genuinely benefit you as you learn English, especially if you're looking for a calm, understanding, and encouraging environment to practice real, everyday conversation.

My lessons are perfect for learners who want to:

-Build confidence in everyday conversations

-Improve pronunciation and speaking fluency

-Expand their vocabulary naturally through real-life topics

-Practice listening and speaking in a judgement-free space

I don't use formal textbooks or structured materials- my focus is on natural, real English. If you enjoy chatting about travel, food, culture, poetry, spirituality, or daily life, we'll get along great! I am especially passionate about animals, mindfulness, holistic healing, meditation, Reiki and living a more conscious life, so if those topics speak to you, we'll have some deep and meaningful conversations. 

I'm also happy to help if you want to practice reading aloud, improving pronunciation, or building reading confidence-just let me know what you need. I also love writing, so if you'd like to try creative speaking or reading exercises, or even talk about your own writing or poetry, I'd love to help-but I focus more on natural language use rather than strict grammar rules.

I'm happy to work with intermediate and advanced learners, or motivated beginners who can understand basic English and want to speak more. Together, we'll find your comfort zone and help you grow from there. 

Let's have a conversation-and have fun doing it! I believe the best learning happens when it feels like you're chatting with a friend.

Friendly Native English Speaker for Relaxed Conversation

New to ITALKI and a bit nervous? I know I was when I had my first lesson here on this platform. 

I am here to answer all your questions and make you feel at ease.

Well, here I am! 

Book a class and we'll get to know each other!

If you would like to practice your conversation skills I'll be happy to help you, we can talk about any topic you are interested in.

Freelance Spanish teacher with over 2 years of experience on italki

Preparing and teaching the English language to 6-12 years old children

Let’s discuss your learning goals, and have a chat! I can show you the different methods we can use to help YOU learn English, and you can tell me what learning style you prefer. (More spontaneous or more structured).

In these sessions we will cover a mix of grammar, vocabulary and speaking. We can tailor the sessions to your needs and I will give you homework to work on between sessions. I recommend booking sessions at least once or twice a week and choosing a regular time to do them. Leaving too much time between sessions means you will not progress at a consistent pace.
