My name is Theresa, I was born in Lesotho. Lesotho is located within the Republic of South Africa.
I ‘m an adult educator with a Bachelor of Education Degree (Adult Education) from the National University of Lesotho. I also am a holder of 120 Hour TEFL Certificate. I have a Diploma in Business Studies and the Certificate in Personnel Management.
The philosophy of learning is that education changes life. My Bachelor of Education Degree program has empowered me to apply experiential teaching methods because learning has a positive impact only if it is relevant to the learner’s needs. My degree in Bachelor of Education (Adult Education) includes the following:
• Adult Literacy Teaching Methods
• English Language Practice
• Adult Education and Development
• Mass Communication in Adult Education
• Curriculum Design & Development in Adult Education
• Psychology of Adult Learning
• Sociology of Adult Education
• Practicum in Adult Education Seminars and Conferences.
I have a neutral British accent (Lesotho was a British Colony) and my voice is easy to understand. The 120 Hour TEFL course emphasized the need to note and be sensitive to different cultures and their native languages challenges with regard to learning English language vocabulary and pronunciation. This course has therefore empowered me to readily tutor international students of all ages.
My experience in facilitation of workshops on behavioral change communication strategy against HIV and AIDS enabled me to design goals-focused lessons. I can provide conversational lessons which includes tutoring grammar, vocabulary, and all four English language skills. My learner-centered teaching approach enables learners to be confident in formal and informal English language proficiency.
My hobbies are reading and listening to personal empowerment books and video. Over the years I upgraded my counseling skill on psychology subject, strategic management and project management. I am also learning lyrics poems writing.
Learners are classified in various levels; the starting level being beginners. The first class is meant to assess each student and assist to establish or confirm the expressed English language lessons goal. This session will enable me to know the learner's environment with regard to possible practice of English language at home. It is a basis on which I could design suitable lessons to be communicated as course outline to provide a clear learning map towards the learner's goal.
Lesson 1 will confirm the level at which the learner has been placed. This means there will be upgrading of the learning material and confirmation of necessary teaching or tutoring techniques and strategies. The use of existential teaching approach emphases eliciting all English learning skills as critical to motivate learners to fully participation and stay engaged throughout the lesson. It is very important to create conducive learning environment and build teacher-learner trust. As an adult educator, I regard this principle as a foundation for continued learning at all levels.

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. MayoFor the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above.
You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students.
My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals.
In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience.
What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless!
In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years.
I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!
Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching. I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Memorise the timetable.
2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods.
Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude.
I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.
What will not be covered in the course:
learning lists of verbs;
learning lists of nouns with articles;
learning words with their translations;
flashcards;
doing school exercises;
following the syllabus of a booklet;
imposing the English grammar on the German language.
What is particularly important to me:
to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm;
to encourage his creativity;
to befriend him with the language;
the letters and their sounds;
to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop;
to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences;
to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...;
to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary.
A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

UKRAINIAN PRIVATE LESSONS for foreigners. LEARN UKRAINIAN EASILY WITH ME. "Unlock the World: Elevate Your Life with Ukrainian!"As a Ukrainian teacher for foreigners with varying language proficiency levels, I hold a unique and pivotal role in the realm of education.
I am in touch with my students almost all the time. We are not only practicing grammar and vocabulary, but we are also experiencing a love of Ukrainian culture together. There is no place for constant boring theory and mindless rote memorization. My values are trust, understanding and love.
My dedication to imparting the Ukrainian language to a diverse group of learners has shaped an identity, fostering a rich tapestry of experiences, skills, and qualities that make an invaluable asset in the field of education.
I love seeing and participating in my students' interest in the Ukrainian language. What warms my heart the most is their curiosity about every detail and exception. Especially when they want to look for new things for themselves and then tell me about what they have found with a twinkle in their eye.

Learn differently - English with a certified professional tutor with international experienceHello, my name is Damien,

Each session combines:
• Guided conversation to improve fluency
• Grammar and vocabulary adapted to your level
• Listening and oral comprehension with authentic materials
