    Linguistics and the structure and origins of the English language

    English is spoken at a useful level by some 1.75 billion people worldwide. Most of them can speak several more languages. The jobs of the future, however, will require workers with advanced literacy and numeracy skills. Only 1% of the global population has the abilities and competence to teach the English language. Digital literacy and intercultural communication are one of these skills you will learn in my lessons. General sessions have 8 levels of learning (vocabulary and grammar), business language has 4.

    Academic learning (C1) is divided into three parts.

    1) Spoken language such as diction, acting on stories or poems, public speaking, debates and discussions, etc.

    2) Reading exercises such as the main idea, supporting details, the author's purpose, organisation and text structures, the audience, evaluating arguments, drawing conclusions, tone and mood, meaning of words and phrases, figurative language, graphic structures of information and elements of fiction, etc.

    3) Grammar and sentence structure such as the parts of speech, constructing sentences, capitalization, common language errors, the essay, writing a thesis statement, structuring the essay, providing supportive evidence, writing well, etc.

    About Me

    I have a digital piano and a great collection of books in English. By the way, I had worked some years in France too. Well travelled person in Europe and America. My daily schedule is quite busy one, weekly flexible, and I am interested in a student who needs the learning outcome and realistic practice.

    Some study materials (read audio files The Economist, unlimited access to the National Theatre Live (UK) or Netflix, picture books, language books, songbooks, sheets music and the digital piano with headphones and pedals, 2D and 3D, maths and logic study materials) are included into tuition and used only in a study time.

    Education

    Teacher training in Estonia and abroad. Studied English language teaching and the method of Montessori from London, UK. In addition, certified in CEU from Tartu, Tallinn, Melbourne, Townsville, Granada, Hague, Tokyo, Trois-Rivières, Leicester, Siena, and Florence.

    Experience / Qualifications

    Educator since 2007, the senior level teaching career in various educational settings. Among others, participated in the EU-funded intercultural projects with youth workers, and teachers. I've got 2 months paid holiday each summer, tutoring from Sept to May.
    Entry-level lessons teach about rhythm, melody, harmony, duo play, replay, music listening and ear training, music notation, and sight-reading. Learning depends on your life experience and abilities. You can learn some days, some others may develop skills some years. I sing a little on a weekly bases. I have songbooks of some hundred songs. I'm the only mountain dulcimer player in Estonia. I sometimes play the tenor or bass recorder, digital saxophone, melodica, digital piano and other electronic keys at home. I record music at home. Learners can continue their studies in a music school or studio. Musical literacy is the reading, writing, and playing of music, as well as an understanding of cultural practice and historical and social contexts. Kopli is famous for bohemians and fine art. Young musicians can rent a music studio at the youth centre.
    I've been working with multi-age classrooms for more than a decade now to work with children with communication disorders and several more experiences with other children in public and private settings to teach in Estonian, English, and French. I use American curriculum and study materials in English and studies are integrated across disciplines that include geography, biology, history, language, mathematics, science, music, and other forms of artistic expression. I also have a great collection of British picture books that I use quite often and 3D wooden study materials. In my after-school sessions, children engage in their learning by thinking, discussing, investigating, and creating.

    Geography: Understanding Our Complex and Changing World
    Hi, I'm Polly! I graduated with a first-class BA in Geography from the University of Oxford and I am about to start my MA at SOAS University of London. My experience includes teaching English in China for a year, over four years tutoring Geography from KS3 to undergraduate level, and teaching A-level Geography at an international school. Geography is more than just maps; it's the study of the world and how humans interact with it, making it essential for understanding our interconnected planet and the challenges we face. This class ranges from physical geography, such as Earth's features and natural processes, to human geography, including population, urban development, and cultural landscapes. Students will develop critical skills like map reading, spatial awareness, analytical thinking, and research while exploring global issues such as climate change and sustainability. By learning geography, students gain a deeper appreciation for diverse cultures and environments, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to navigate and address the complex challenges of our world. As a qualified tutor for the National Tutoring Programme, I've developed strategies to address learning gaps and support students with SEND needs. My expertise covers human and physical Geography, ensuring comprehensive support across a range of topics. I tailor my approach to each student’s needs, focusing on content mastery, exam techniques, and revision strategies, with follow-up exercises to reinforce learning and build confidence.

    How to understand and communicate in written and spoken English
    I specialize in coaching adult learners in spoken and written English. I hold a level 3 Adult Teaching Certificate and as a graduate of the full-time acting course at LAMDA, the use of English and the ability to communicate and understand has always been at the heart of my professional career as an actor for 25 years but also my business career for over 20 years. I have always been passionate about the need of most individuals to optimize their employability by their use of language in written and spoken communications. Once they have acquired.fluency of these key areas, they will develop the self-confidence that will get them past their first interview for a job and behavioural flexibility to secure and retain the job if they want it. For many years, I have taught Voice to professional adults including politicians, marketing and sales executives and designers. This was derived from what I learned at LAMDA where I was taught by some of the best voice teachers in the world. My class was designed to learn how to be more effective in spoken and written communication in English. How to engage, how to listen, how to understand, how to be dynamic etc... Each class is one hour. Many have told me that what they learned from this class has helped them to develop and grow their self-confidence especially when applying for jobs. I have enormous experience in communicating with people at all levels and from different backgrounds. I strongly believe that communication is the key to employability. I also have considerable experience of organizing and formatting processes which are aligned to assessing and training requirements. For over twenty-five years, I have assessed Parliamentary Candidates for a major political party and for the past twelve years, I have been organizing and Facilitating them both face-to-face and since the pandemic online as VADs or Virtual Assessment Days. The biggest barrier facing any adult learner who is also in employment is trying to balance the conflicting demands of employment with the competing demands of a formal course which has its own timetable. Whether the employment is full-time or part-time, there are always just so many hours in the day. So rest assured, I can be completely flexible to suit your timetable.

    Business GCSE and BTEC Tutoring & Employment Coaching
    Business Tutoring: Business is an incredibly useful subject and it's very advantageous to be good at business skills as you navigate through the next phases of your life. As a UK top 6.5% recent business student, I understand the GCSE and BTEC courses very well, I also understand how new ways of learning differ to the traditional "whiteboard and listen" classes that were once standard. What sets me aside from other tutors is that for me, being qualified in CIPD, I listen to your individual learning requirements and tailor my teaching to suit that, after all if I was speaking in a language you didn't know, you wouldn't understand, that goes with me tutoring in a way which you find disengaging. I'm a recent student: I'm skilled, relatable and adaptable. Employment Coaching: Accessing the best jobs on the market is no longer just about qualifications or experience, whilst they might open a door, that's one of many. It's essential candidates are fluent in operating transactional interviews, have great interpersonal skills and understand the organisation to a level of which they can act like a part of it. Having received offers from some of the most competitive organisations in the world, I've mastered the art of being a "360o candidate". I offer a range of services from introductory conversations to 6-week programs going through topics such as recruitment and selection and organisational values.

    Spanish for beginners (You will learn with recreational activities)
    Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world and is essential if you want to interact with people who come from Latin America. Although it seems like a difficult language, I can make you speak it perfectly in a short time... :).

    Learn French ONLINE: Basic, Communication, Vocabulary!
    This is a class designed to learn French in an active way! I am used to teaching young children to young adults. I have done tutoring with young children with disabilities in French and in English in different subjects (history, mathematics, french grammar, english grammar, etc). I enjoy teaching by connecting to people and really understanding their level and their needs. I'll evaluate your level and will provide you exercices to do or movies/videos to watch to develop your hearing and prononciation. I believe learning is about being curious and wanting more so I hope to achieve this through this class! I can do the whole class in French or in English, you choose. This is not a class to be anxious or stressed, learning must be a fun process!

    Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
    I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

    German Language for Beginners (Deutsch - A1 und A2)
    German as a foreign language can be hard, especially regarding the grammar part. Always focusing on the structures of the sentences can be challenging and demotivating when trying to connect the sentences in a communication environment. That is why with the help of this class, you'll get more confident in building strong sentences without the stress usually involved. As a foreign speaker of German of over 3 years, there's no other person that understands the struggles better than I do. We will cover all the fundamentals with the background of grammar and syntax so that we are able to create a strong base for future advanced levels.
