English lessons with a native English speaker: improve grammar, vocabulary and diction.

I teach English as a foreign language at all levels, to anyone wishing to improve vocabulary, polish pronunciation, or generally gain confidence in speaking and communicating successfully.

I aim to create a lesson style that suits my student and supports their individual needs in an inspiring and friendly environment. Whether you want to learn thematically, prepare for a presentation or exam, or simply practice conversational skills, I believe that learning should be fun, relaxed, and move at a pace that you find both invigorating and enjoyable!

Extra information

You don't need to bring anything with you other than yourself and your brain, but a pen and paper is suggested so that you can write down new words and grammar rules etc.

If you are working towards an exam, and have particular material which you would like to work through with me (eg. a course book) please let me know prior to teaching, so that I have time to acquire the material before lessons!

About Me

I am a British Soprano with a Bachelor degree in vocal performance and a passion for all things art and culture. I love reading, cooking (eating), and practicing yoga. A teacher of two years experience, I have enjoyed understanding how students learn, and seeing them grow in both ability and confidence within their respective subjects.

During my Bachelor degree, I gained a deep understanding of vocal technique - learning how my voice worked and what 'healthy singing' means. In this time I also studied phonetics, correct diction in Italian, German and French, Alexander technique, acting and body movement. I have an extensive repertoire, from baroque to modern music, and have performed many times both as a soloist and as a chorus member.

I have lived in Germany for two years, learning the language from scratch, and plan to enrol in a master degree (Music) in September. Learning German from a beginner to an advanced level has further deepened my interest in languages and helped me to develop further tools for teaching. I have taught English as a foreign language for over two years, and enjoy working with a variety of students at different levels. Helping people reach their language goal is just as interesting and engaging for me as I hope it is for them! I have subsequently begun teaching German to beginners up to B1/A-level.

My approach to all teaching is very versatile. I aim to create a lesson style that suits my student and supports their individual needs in an inspiring and friendly environment. I believe that learning should be fun, relaxed, and move at a pace that you find both invigorating and enjoyable!

I look forward to hearing from you,
Ella

I really like the lessons with Ella, we are working precisely on my technique. She is very nice and funny. I enjoy the class with her!
I teach German to beginners, who would like to improve their speech, writing and general apprehension of the German language. Maybe you are moving to Germany and don't know where to begin (as was the case with me 3 years ago!), or you are planning a holiday and would like to communicate successfully. Maybe you are preparing for an exam, or are simply interested by the language and would like to learn more. Whatever the case, I would be delighted to help! Lessons will focus on a variety of topics, geared towards your language learning goal. This will prodominantly include grammar - the four cases, sentence structure, conjugation, etc. - vocabulary, and conversational work. I also have experience with phonetics and German diction, which I studied as part of my university degree. I can therefore assist you with correct pronunciation. I have several course materials through which we can work. These would take us thematically through topics such as culture, careers, hobbies and many more. I can also offer general conversational practice, if you are looking to practice and boost already acquired skills. My lessons are always tailored to my students needs, and I aim to create a friendly and inspiring atmosphere. I believe above all that learning should be fun, relaxed, and move at a pace that you find both invigorating and enjoyable!
I am soprano with a Bachelor's degree in Vocal performance, focusing on Opera, Lied and Oratorio. I teach anyone of any age, from beginner to intermediate, who has an interest in learning to sing. Although my repertoire focusses on classical music, I am happy to work through a variety of genres including folk, musical theatre and popular music, all of which I have experience with. Everyone's voice is unique, and this is one of the beautiful qualities of singing that I am so passionate about. I therefore create lessons tailored to each individual. Lessons will focus on technique, repertoire and interpretation, all of which will help you to build and understand your own true voice. Whatever your goal, I am happy to help!
I offer English lessons to all people who want to improve their English. I can help you with vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. Lessons with structure and topics are possible, as well as general entertainment if you simply want to converse more comfortably and fluently in English. I teach in English. This allows you to understand the rhythm, grammar and feel of the language more deeply, build your confidence better, and overall learn the language faster! I create a positive learning atmosphere and adapt my lessons to the individual requirements of the student. Most importantly, you feel comfortable, inspired, and have fun in class!

Allow me to take over, answer their questions, and create an environment conducive to their growth. You no longer have to worry about problematic materials.

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.
