Tailor made English lessons by certified TEFL teacher
From 37.51 £ /h
My name is Julia and I am a qualified TEFL teacher (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) with a Master's degree in English linguistics. I offer English courses for all levels.
My background in linguistics provides me with a thorough knowledge of English grammar and I therefore have an understanding of the problems students face when learning English. Having lived and worked in the United States, I know what it is like to be immersed in an English speaking environment, therefore can help my students improve their fluency as well as develop the perfect accent! I can also give tailor made classes to working professionals, PhD students, who would like to focus on their academic English (EAP=English for Academic Purposes), essay writing and presentations skills.
After the very first meeting, I try my best to adopt the lessons to the needs and goals of my students. I don’t believe anyone can be a ‘bad language learner’, rather that different techniques might work for each of us. My goal is to help students discover what works for them. For those who are afraid of grammar and get confused easily, I'll give some easy tools so you can improve effortlessly. If being shy stops you from speaking, do not worry, as by the end of our lessons you will gain the confidence needed.
Generally, I only use English during classes, but for lower levels I can provide explanations also in Hungarian, in German or in French.

About Me
I am a native Hungarian, fluent in English and German, currently learning French and Italian on my own. As an avid language learner myself, I have always taken pride in helping others achieve their goals. I have a deep love for languages and keen to pass that on! :)
I have experience with teenagers, university students and adults. I have also taught professionals from the EU institutions and tailor made company courses. In addition to this, I have done proofreading for countless academic papers.
I have an extensive knowledge and experience of English grammar and literature, as well as past working experience in EU affairs.
In my free time I enjoy being outdoors, cycling as well as long distance hiking.
