Full disclosure: I’m not going to be able to promise you that you’ll speak fluently in x months or master a tense in x days. I’m not going to tell you that I can make learning languages “easy”.
As a language learner myself, I know that making progress in a language is about persistence and patience more than it is about easy fixes. I also know how challenging learning languages can be… it’s just as much about mentality as it is about grammar or vocabulary.
I try to be the kind of teacher that I would want... and the marketing-friendly way of presenting languages does nothing for me, because I know that’s not how it works.
So no false promises or slick lines — just a knowledgeable, encouraging, and patient coach who will push you to keep going when you feel discouraged.
Of course, languages can be fun too! I’ve been told my lessons are the highlight of a person’s day. I love facilitating students’ wish to carve out time for themselves.
If you are passionate about languages and ready to commit to the journey of learning, we may be a good fit! Have fun practicing and learning with a friendly, experienced teacher (10+ years) offering online lessons. I love languages, love teaching, and would love to help you in any way I can with:
