Hello! My name is Saige, and I am a native English language speaker from Canada. I have experience teaching English language at all levels, from the very basics to improving conversational language skills. I take an individual approach to support with reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary practice.

LESSONS AND TEACHING APPROACH:
I believe that language learning should be a comfortable and enjoyable process. The more positive your experience, the more meaningful and sustainable your learning will be. Before starting, I suggest a session where we get to know each other and talk about your language learning goals. I know that that everyone has different learning styles and paces, and so I take a flexible and individually-made approach to teaching. I will prepare everything we need for the lesson, and suggest that we meet wherever is easiest and most comfortable for you.

About Me

I have been living in Estonia for just over one year, where I came to complete my degree in Adult Education. Over the past 2 years I have been studying and working in community-based adult education in Scotland, Malta and Tallinn. I have always had a nerdy passion for linguistics and language learning, and I love to share this with others :) Right now, I'm learning Estonian language myself, so I know that learning a foreign language can be intimidating! But, I also believe that it can be a fun and rewarding process if you are learning in a way that works for you; as a teacher, I try to find everyone's unique learning style and strengths.

My name is Franklin, I am from Washington D.C., I love to ski, I love languages, and hope to be able to help you learn the deeply strange and wonderful thing that is the English language!

One of the key's to writing English properly is being as concise as possible. Below, I have written a few bullet points on my background, teaching style, and what kind of services I can provide.

Background: I am from Washington D.C. but have lived all over the United States. I graduated with a double-major in Russian Language and International Politics and Diplomacy from Texas A&M University. After graduating, I spent three years working at a think tank in Washington D.C. This work required me to constantly write, research, and give public presentations. After I was promoted, it became my job to teach others how to do these things effectively. I am currently completing my MA at the University of Tartu.

Teaching Style: I believe that direct, friendly, and useful conversation is key. We can all sit around and read text books or watch youtube videos to try to learn a language. Those things are good, but the best way (and from my point of view the only way) to learn a language is to learn it with a native English speaker. I am familiar with teaching people with many different learning styles, and eager to use a number of different methods (other than traditional text-books) to teach you how to communicate better in English.

Services Provided:

-Weekly reports identifying progress made, and areas which we will need to focus on further. These will help guide our progress over time, and allow you to keep track of what you will have accomplished!

- Classes for all skill levels, with a number of special classes for intermediate and advanced students who need to improve certain specific English-language skills including:
- Public Speaking
- Professional Writing
- Business English (Including focused classes on certain subject areas if needed)

I am happy to provide more detail if needed and hope to hear from you soon!

Franklin

A native Italian speaker, I have 8 years experience teaching Italian to beginner and intermediate level students in Sweden. As a beginning you will get a strong basis in grammar and phonetics, as this is essential for any serious language learning, but I focus on dialogue skills as well, and adapt my teaching to the students particular needs. I have academic education at PhD level, and can prepare university students for Italian language exams. I can also teach Italian for science applications.

I am an experienced English teacher, from the UK, available to teach all ages in Tartu (or elsewhere via webcam). I am TEFL qualified with years of experience teaching preschool children to adults in English speaking and writing. I have helped to prepare students for their Cambridge Speaking Exams, given reports, and enormously enjoy the energy of a fun class. Feel free to contact me - I am happy to simply help with conversation practice, essays, or give in depth instruction. I am friendly and personable and look forward to meeting you!

Welcome to Tamil for Beginners. Tamil is a south Indian classical language spoken by approximately 80 million people worldwide and is one of the official languages in India, Sri Lanka, Singapore and Malaysia. Tamils form a huge diaspora in almost all the countries in the world, prominently in UK, US and Canada.

Tamil is the offshoot of the Dravidian language family, quite distinct from Indo-European roots. It has separate fonts and some experts believe it grew in the south alongside Sanskrit in the north. Learn this wonderful language that is at least 3000 years old with a rich classic literature.

I am a trilingual Vietnamese. English and French are what I would like to offer. But if you’re interested in Vietnamese language or culture I can also help! As long as you are willing to learn new things, my class will be a worthy investment

I am a master's student having a major in Actuarial and Financial engineering. I have earned a Bachelor's in mathematics and computing . So, I have a good grip over the subject and would love to fight together with you against those tough math problems.

I have got C1 level IELTS certificate which means I would love to help you with your conversational English as well :)))

These classes are for school students, who may find certain topics, or the whole subject unclear. Don't let those small complications get you down. I'm here to help. The tutoring can be held online through any app you prefer or by meeting at a certain place (cafe, if you prefer noisy places or your comfy study room).
I offer full subject tutoring or assistance in projects/home assignments. In the case of full subject tutoring, I might give some small extra work, so that you do it on your own without any help from anyone else, to make sure you understood the topic and can move on with the next one.
I promise, that classes won't be boring and communicating with me in English will be super easy and sometimes even fun. You will see the result for yourself after a certain time and I will only be proud to know, that I might have helped you.

Hi! My name is Rewan. I am Arabian live in the EU and I am fluent in Arabic & English. Learning the Arabic language isn't that hard if you know what level do you want to achieve in learning Arabic.

Frequent Questions I receive usually is: what's the easiest way to learn Arabic? It depends on several things such as do you use paper and pen to memorize new words or just do it by seeing the words for more than 30 seconds!!

Let's connect and talk more so I can help & support during your journey to learn Arabic :)

(Help for homework, help outside from lesson hours, speaking, writing, preparation for exams, learn from scratch).
In today's world, languages are important. Knowing a language expands your job opportunities, but also allows you to discover different cultures, different mentalities. It takes time to learn a language and it requires regular work.

In my lesson, I can teach you the basics of the french language, but also dig more into the French grammar as well as talking about french culture, history, and geography. My aim will be to make you independent, so you can work by yourself.

If you are willing to upgrade your English or Chinese skills, improve your spoken language or brake the language barrier, I will be glad to help. I have been teaching languages for 6 years already, have successfully passed TOEFL (110/120) HSK 6 (254/300) exams and can share a lot of useful tips on how to stay motivated. My approach is student-oriented, which means that the study program will depend on your aims and preferences.

Learning languages will offer you great opportunities, not just professionally, but for travelling and making friends, or studying abroad. English and Spanish are two of the languages most spoken in the world, and I can help you to improve your skills (conversation, writing, listening, and reading) in both of them.

My aim is to adapt to every student's needs, so I can be very flexible during my lessons, and we can choose and work on several targets together, and especially, have fun and enjoying the learning process.

I also teach in pairs and groups.

Hello,

My formal higher education includes a BA from the University of Toronto (Sociology, Semiotics), MA from Tartu University (Sociology), and a BEd from the University of Toronto (Primary-Junior Education). I am a board certified teacher (Ontario College of Teachers) who is in good standing. My formal teaching experience includes over ten years in an elementary public school setting (Canada, Ontario) and USA, Hawaii). Additionally, I have worked in Tokyo, Japan as an English teacher working with students aged 5 to 50+, including conversational, business, and formal English. Prior to working as a teacher I worked in Higher Education Administration for several years at some of the most competitive universities in Canada and the United States where I supported and managed on-campus student leaders. Overwhelmingly my students and colleagues consistently tell me that I am very kind and patient. Others know me for my high standards, desire to achieve perfection, and great attention to detail. My learning is most successful with a patient, supportive, and holistic approach that teaches me what and how I wish to learn and only when I am ready. I would like to offer you the same.
