I like to make my lessons fun and relevant to the student. I love to make customized materials. My students describe me as humorous, caring and respectful. I studied linguistics so I am especially good at explaining grammar.Certificates

Another great lesson with Gisela! She helped me practice the interview questions. As she said in the video, she knows a lot about the Chinese mind. When my expression was not accurate, she could quickly understand my sentence and help me to modify it. She also corrected my non-standard English pronunciation and told me what would confuse native speakers. Very professional, enthusiastic, highly recommended!
