Learn English, German or Polish as a foreign language

I am a PhD of Applied Linguistics and a fluent speaker of Polish (my mother tongue), German and English. I teach the three languages for general purposes (everyday life) and for exams (like Cambridge English exams, TOEFL, IELTS, Goethe-Zertifikat, egzamin certyfikatowy z języka polskiego). I also have experience with English for Medicine and am willing to assist you in your private needs.

I believe in teaching based on (con)text - as opposed to teaching the rules and the vocabulary per se. Let me put it this way: It is not enough to want to speak a language, you need to know what you want to speak about. So, what can you talk about with me? Apart from languages I am interested in arts (music, literature, painting, cinematography), travelling / geography, astronomy, physics, chemistry, biology and medicine, politics, religions/spirituality and psychology. I live in Poznań, Poland (quite a big city) and am privately a mother of four children - two of whom I've been homeschooling since their first grade. For me, education (also my own education) is a lifestyle.

About Me

My career in education took off as I started studying at Adam Mickiewicz University in 1996. As a student, I supplemented my finances by giving private lessons to children and thus gaining experience. I then continued teaching in various settings - both in mainstream public education and in academic setting, providing classes to students while working on my doctor thesis which dealt with teaching foreign languages to teenagers with dyslexia.
I like to think of the educational process as a tourist / hiker experience. Tell me what places you would like visit, what mountains you would like to climb - and let me be your guide. I will tell you what routes we can take to get there and will provide information on all the fascinating monuments, landmarks and wonders of nature that we will encounter on our way.

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.

Nicoletta
Online certified TEFL teacher with over 1000 hours of experience
Hello, my name is Nicoletta and I am a certified native English tutor from the small island of Cyprus. However, both my parents have British roots and I have grown up speaking English as my primary language. As a person who has always been interested in other countries and cultures, I have embarked on learning new languages myself in the last few years. Most recently Korean! Doing this, I realised how important it is to have someone guide you and support you on your language learning journey. I hope to be that person for you, to aid you and support you with your experience of the English language. My classes for adults cover: Pronunciation Comprehension (listening and reading) Conversational English (e.g., hobbies, travel, nature, social media, culture, and more.) Functional English (e.g., at the supermarket, at the doctor's, at a hotel, at a restaurant, and more.) Grammar Exam preparation (IELTS and TOEFL) Idioms Writing Business English My classes for children cover: Vocabulary (e.g., daily routines, animals, hobbies, sports, family, jobs, food, emotions, weather, and more). Comprehension (listening and reading) Pronunciation Basic grammar Games (e.g., wordsearches, spot the difference, guessing games, and more.) Exam preparation (IELTS and TOEFL) I believe in tailoring each lesson to meet the students needs. I believe that the student is the most important person in any lesson and that the teacher should focus their material on the students’ goals, interests, and aspirations.

Peace be upon you. I am honored to teach the Egyptian colloquial dialect to non-native speakers.

We will teach from the book “Beautiful Words.” I hope that you will have an enjoyable time learning the simple Egyptian dialect and that I will live up to your expectations.
