I just had my first class with Kyra and I'm so happy! I was terribly nervous but Kyra made the lesson easy and fun. So I got more relaxed and she said I was making a lot of progress. Looking forward to our next class!
My daughter had a great time and enjoyed her 1st singing lesson with Kyra. She's already excited for her next lesson!
Kyra is a fantastic teacher! She is incredibly knowledgeable and kind, and made me feel comfortable from the first lesson. I have been singing for 8 years and have never felt better (vocally) since my lessons with Kyra. Looking forward to many more lessons in the future!
She is a very amazing teacher and very patienceful as well. Its fun learning with you and I am looking forward to more!!

Arianit
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.

إلياس
Psychological comfort for the child occurs only by addressing the subconscious
Psychological comfort cannot be achieved through stages that we have studied in psychology. First, that period of time in which he is an infant, do not abuse him too much and meet his needs often, such as saying if the child cries, do not give him milk directly, but rather let him cry a little, then give him his dose. In bed, the mother can move him away from her a little at a time, then give him warmth. What I am saying is the comprehensive balance between severity and softness. Then, if the child begins to walk stumbling, let him fall, provided that you keep everything away from him. It hurts him like he falls on top A harmless pillow or cloth, then help him. The important thing is that he falls. In that case, his subconscious mind becomes open, such as giving him a piece of chocolate and a pen. Let him choose first, then direct him to the right thing, etc. We have now passed the stage of boyhood. The child has begun to grow up and wants to go to school and asks for a daily allowance. I advise you not to give him money directly, but rather assign him to do something so that he realizes the value of what he has taken. Tell him to make your bed and you have an extra dollar, or tell him to drink a bottle of water every day and you have an extra dollar, then deliberately hold him some responsibility.His day at school was devoted to something, so he created sources for review, because the routine perpetuates stupidity. Now the child has grown taller and has become somewhat mature. He assigned him a simple matter of household matters, such as fetching something from the store. Then the child returns with a blank page on which you can write whatever you want.

Memorizing the Holy Quran and teaching Arabic and English
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to God. The Arabic language and Islamic sciences are worldly sciences, and a Muslim must be familiar with them and know them so that his life can be straightened out by memorizing the Holy Qur’an and learning the Arabic language. I am also good at teaching Arabic to foreigners and teaching English to beginners.

English and Spanish Conversation classes with a highly experienced Languages Teacher of British & Irish origin.
Since beginning my language teaching career in 2012, I have led instruction in Spanish and English as foreign languages in prestigious International Schools around the globe. I am currently a whole-school Spanish Teacher at the British School of Warsaw, teaching children from the age of 8 years old through to 18, focusing on Key Stages 2 and 3 of the National Curriculum for England, the Cambridge iGCSE program of studies for Spanish as a Foreign Language and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP) for Spanish Language B. Our classes will be structured around the learning goals you share with me during our first session. We will focus on the enhancement of your spoken skills, taking into account fluency, confidence and communication. On occasion, I may assign you learning homework in preparation for our next session. Commitment is key and you must be prepared to immerse yourself fully in the classes. I speak both Spanish and English with very comprehensible and neutral accents and am highly skilled at improving students' pronunciation.
