About Me

I am an outgoing, encouraging and understanding teacher. I really enjoy engaging with students on topics that are interesting and relevant to them. I am very patient and work at your pace but I also work hard to ensure that my students make good progress in a reasonable period of time. Often, students have good written English but struggle with conversational English when they travel abroad, study abroad or work in international companies.

In my personal life, I am a master's student at the London School of Economics in the UK. This has given me a good insight into the standard for international students. I also have experience working in management consultancy.

Education

MSc Development Management, London School of Economics, ongoing
Bachelor of Commerce Honours: Economics, University of Cape Town, 2016
Bachelor of Commerce: Politics, Philosophy and Economics, University of Cape Town, 2013-2015

Experience / Qualifications

I have taught English and worked in management consultancy for two economics firms.

In 2016-2017 I lived and worked in Mainland China (Chengdu) and then later in Hong Kong. I taught English to students between the ages of 4-13. In Chengdu I worked for Phinnie Education and in Hong Kong I worked for Monkey Tree English Learning Centre. I have also taught English online to students from Korea.

Gabriella
German Language, English as Foreign Language and Hungarian Language at any level
I used to be a German language Teacher in a secondary school, after school teaching I had private students. I have been teaching German and English as Foreign Language privately for a couple of years. I happily teach individuals and small groups from the beginning or just to refresh your existing language skills. Any level is welcome. Lessons can be held at your home or my home or even online. The entire lesson is tailormade to your language level, expectations and in order to make a progress.

Mandarin and Cantonese speaking and daily practice
Chinese is a very interesting language and the grammar is very easy when you learn the tricks. In learning this language, you can appreciate the evolution of Chinese culture. And many Chinese sayings are related to historical stories. It can also bring you more job opportunities. Since few people learn this language, you will gain more advantages if you can master it. I am from Guangdong, China, so I am fluent in Mandarin and Cantonese. I can make the simplest way to express what you want to say. Also have a conversation with you and help you practice your Mandarin through daily situational conversations. In my experience of learning a language, the best way to learn is to use it more on a daily basis

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.
