English & Latvian Teacher for Children | Grades 1–12 | 8+ Years of Experience

From 48 C$ /h

Hello! My name is Alise, and I have more than 8 years of experience teaching English and Latvian to schoolchildren.

I work with students from Grades 1–12 and help them improve their language skills, understand difficult topics, fill gaps in their knowledge and become more confident and independent learners.

My lessons are calm, structured and adapted to the student’s age, level and individual needs. I believe that children learn better when they understand why something works, rather than simply memorising rules.

Depending on the student’s needs, we can work on grammar, vocabulary, reading, listening, speaking and writing, as well as school topics and exam preparation.

I use interactive activities and my own teaching materials and explain difficult concepts in a simple and understandable way. I also encourage students to ask questions, think independently and gradually take more responsibility for their learning.

I am a Russian-speaking teacher, so I can explain difficult concepts in Russian when necessary while gradually increasing the use of English according to the student’s level.

I enjoy working with curious, motivated students and helping them discover that learning a language can become much easier once they understand how it works. 😊

I specialise in tutoring English for individuals of all ages, my teaching experience stretches over 2 years in England, my teaching approaches are designed according to the needs of the student. Take the opportunity to improve your English abilities at a fraction of the cost of regular classes.

The class offered is a serious one for serious learners. Any and all topics can be covered depending on the student's English level. Some examples of what can be learned: test preparation, essay writing, grammar, reading comprehension, vocabulary, pronunciation, subject studying, etc.

Additionally, high level (advanced) English can be taught/tutored such as what's used in business should the student want to be taught this. Materials used in this class come from the real world to ensure the student gets a hands-on experience with the language.

Hey,
My name is Max I am 20 years old and a second-year medical student here in Riga.
I was born and raised in Bavaria in Germany.
The last two years of high school I spent in a Boarding School in Waterford in Ireland. Where I successfully graduated in the summer of 2019.
Then in summer 2020, I moved to Riga where I am currently studying medicine in English.
Teaching languages especially has always been a passion for me.
I find it important to create a space where the student feels comfortable to speak, write and learn without being judged for mistakes. I found it quite challenging when I first moved to Ireland to speak English because I was afraid of making mistakes but that is what stops the whole learning process. In my opinion, the easiest way to learn a language is to speak openly and freely and listen to try to understand more and more and more. I have seen clear improvements with a few Latvian friends who just speak English with me. I don't even teach them just the simple fact that they speak English for a few hours a week makes a huge difference and goes a long way in learning English.
If the goal is to be able to speak and understand English better then casual chats and conversations about interesting topics are all you going to need.
If you want to improve your grade in school a little bit then a bit of grammar would be good, but most of it is learned by speaking and listening.

English is not a hard language to learn, the pronunciation is quite simple and straightforward.
Grammar is a lot easier than Latvian, German, or French.

IELTS is a challenging test for non-native English speakers. Without adequate preparation, it is hard to get a decent score in IELTS. I can help you to achieve your desired score in a limited time. I have studied IELTS for almost a year and I have taken the test recently with an average score of 8. I can give you the best tips to succeed in all the sections of the test.

Learning a foreign language is a lot of fun and an exciting project, but it can be difficult to start out. I help to give lessons that improve your conversational English ability and give you a base to learn and improve. I have previously worked as a tutor in both France and the United States, helping people with their English and French respectively. In my classes, I help to be a friendly, fun, dynamic, and interesting teaching and conversational partner/friend to assist you.

I can improve your English for school, university, travel, business or work from 30 minutes to 20 hours per week.

I was born and raised in England, but since 2017 I have been visiting Latvia. In the summer of 2023, I decided to move to Riga as I fell in love with the country, people, traditions, food and nature.

We can meet for tutoring in the Riga region, or via webcam anywhere in the world.
