The best Esperanto tutor for you

Teaching (and language learning) is who I am. In university, many of my friends were international students. I took pride in my ability to adapt my English to the appropriate level as they progressed. I was learning German, and this really helped me see things from their perspective. Now I am well-known in the Esperanto community - a regular teacher-in-residence at NASK and other events. In 1988 I became a tutor in a Free Esperanto Course (which I now administer), and when I left my IT career in 2016, I started teaching once a week at the local ESOL Association, as well as tutoring on line and in person. Teaching different languages in these situations has given me a unique perspective.

◊ Focus on authentic spoken French; ◊ Flipped teaching method; ◊ Cognitive science-based learning I have nearly 20 years of experience teaching languages in a wide range of settings — from language schools and private institutes to online platforms. I’ve worked with adult learners of all levels, including professionals, university students, and language enthusiasts from many countries. I hold a teaching diploma from Alliance Française of Paris, and I’m currently completing a master’s degree in language teaching methodology at the University of Grenoble Alpes — one of France’s top-ranked universities. I'm also interested in cognitive science and enjoy using science-based strategies to support learning and memorization.

They call me a Polyglot but I just call myself a multilingual. I have taught students from various countries, and I know that everyone learns languages differently. Thus, my linguistics knowledge and experience help me understand what students like you need and how you can learn better.

For 16 years, I teach occitan and esperanto, volunteer or as employee in a language training center. I runned for 6 years online training, I regularly teach courses of all kinds. I do not have a university education, I learned as we say "on the job" but I'm very interested in pedagogy, I like to read, to explore and train myself on the subject, I like to experiment with new techniques and I always try to improve myself.

Denaska parolanto kun universitata diplomo pri Esperanto, 20 jara instruista sperto I teach Esperanto since 1998. I corrected several Esperanto-Hungarian textbooks. I created exercises for language exams and graduation exams in Esperanto. I had many groups of adults in language schools. But I am teaching also in private by Skype and Zoom.

Lingvemulo furioze indiferenta: more than 10 years of teaching and learning experience I am a teacher of Esperanto, teaching online since 2006. I have a KER-ekzameno certification as well as Russian Esperanto Union certificate for teaching Esperanto. I also teach offline in my home city, St. Petersburg, or at Esperanto-events. Russian is my native language. I am trained as a teacher of Russian as a foreign language, I have also studied Linguistics and Journalism at the St. Petersburg State University. I learn two Slavic languages — Polish and Bulgarian — and that gives me lots of insights on my own language and how I can explain it better to my students.

Experienced, CEFR C2 Level, friendly and committed to make you progress in the language. I'm patient, fun and enthusiastic about language teaching. Patient, because you are going to make mistakes but I will help you understand why they happen and how to correct them. Fun, because fun is the best way to learn a language, playing and understanding the world around you, just like you did when you were learning your first language. Enthusiastic, because I love what I do, I love to teach and truly love helping you reach your language goals.

Teaching 11 languages, currently learning 3 more When teaching I take both my schedule and my classes seriously. When a class is scheduled, it is part of my weekly plan and I get ready for it. I conduct a detailed journal of what I have been doing with my student, I write down every session, thus it is easy for me to check what we did on our past sessions. I used to teach more conventionally, meaning with my students being in the same room as me. In 2021 I started using Skype for my classes and things work out very well. I am always punctual as I respect the time my students take for our class, likewise I do appreciate if my students do the same.

Conversation, grammaire, prononciation, étude de chansons… Très patient, doux, amusant. Je peux vous donner toutes les explications que vous avez envie d'avoir sur la grammaire et le vocabulaire.

Multilingual teacher of Finnish and Esperanto My main goal as a teacher is to make the student feel relaxed and confident. My lessons are a safe space and I focus on the positive things.
