Shermaine S.
University of Leicester
MA in Applied Linguistics and TESOL, BSc in Accounting and Psychology. Certified teacher with 14 years of international and cultural experiences.
I am a certified teacher/tutor with 14 years of teaching experience. I taught Accounting for 8 years in Jamaica and English for 6 years in Japan. I have a master's degree in Applied Linguistics and TESOL and a BSc. in Accounting and Psychology. I specialize in all exam preparations including EIKEN, Business English, English for Academic purposes and general conversation. As a teacher, I believe most of my work is to be done outside of the classroom, be it a virtual or physical classroom. My lessons are usually well-prepared and mostly student-centered. I design and adapt materials that are both appropriate and challenging to my learners. I listen to my students and use their own interests to make the lessons more relatable and interesting. If you'd like, we could do a cooking lesson to learning English (I have done this in the past). English is a tool and great resource to have, it is not just a subject. I am passionate about teaching and ready to help you achieve your goals. Conversational topics we could enjoy together includes solo travelling or travelling in general , cooking and sharing recipes and cultures.

Tracy W.
New Jersey Institute of Technology
HS/College Math Tutor [Algebra/Calculus/SAT]
Hi there! My name is Tracy and I’m a current college student studying Applied Mathematics. I enjoy learning about the vast world of math and sharing that experience with others. My experiences in taking classes and in helping others learn the material have led me to understand that learning is most effective when both student and teacher have a two-way conversation, what some refer to as “bouncing ideas off of each other.” In my personal tutoring sessions, I strive to establish a working relationship along these lines so that the student can understand the subject thoroughly. I have a year of experience working at an in-person tutoring center. There, I answered questions from students for a variety of college-level math courses, from Precalculus through Calculus II and Linear Algebra. I did my best to not only provide answers to the questions the students asked, but also identify the gaps in their understanding of the underlying concept so that they would be able to answer further questions about the same topic on their own. I will do my best to work with you to reach whatever goal you have and to make the process of learning as enjoyable as legally possible. I look forward to working with you!

Craig J.
Southern Illinois University
Spanish Tutor
Hello! My name is Craig and I am eager to work with you. Here is some information about me so that you can decide if I am the right person to help: I am a graduate from Southern Illinois University Carbondale with a degree in Foreign Language and International Trade. My love of language started in high school when I was an exchange student in Panama. I lived for six months with a local host family, I learned to speak Spanish and I adapted to the culture. This experience has made me a much more flexible person, better able to work and communicate with people from other cultures and backgrounds. Learning Spanish has also made me much better at understanding my own native language. While in university I taught Spanish and Latin Dance through the continuing education program at John A. Logan College. Since graduating I have lived in Colombia, South America. Here I have taught English in SENA (Servicio Nacional de Aprendizaje), Institución Universitaria CESMAG, Universidad Mariana, and Universidad de Nariño. I love helping others, which always makes teaching people a pleasure. My teaching methods include games and conversation, along with grammar and sentence structure exercises. I think it is important to combine the best aspects of the Indirect and Grammar Based Methods. I hope this information helps you to make your choice!

Hi, my name is Saira and I have been teaching English and Art for over 10 years, with students from around the world. I lived in Tennessee USA, travelled to China, Russia, South America and much of Europe. I know that my students deserve my respect, I will respect them, teach them and then correct them. From young children to 95 years, I love having taught so many people especially when they have an 'Oh! I get it now' moment. I have been fortunate to teach students from age 3 to 93. To this day I am in contact with some of my former students and very excited to see them go on to use and improve their English skills even more in all of their undertakings. This has been enormously motivating and helped me gain even more experience now beneficial to all of my students in rising to their expectations of more fluency, confidence and becoming worldly individuals. My lessons are student-centered, so you get as many opportunities to speak as possible. Thanks to my vast international experience I feel confident that I can connect with anyone from any place in the world without any problems and will always adapt to your pace, level and expectations.

Greg M.
University of Texas at Arlington
Accent Reduction Specialist
ACCENT REDUCTION SPECIALIST Unlike most ESL teachers, I hold a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics (UT Arlington, 1995). In other words, I have the training to help my students with their accent and pronunciation. Check out the reviews in my profile. I have helped many students reduce their accents. That is the first step to being understood. I can: • Show you how to control those sounds that are hard to make and hear. (I mean, all of our mouths are made the same, right?) • Teach you American English intonation, cadence, etc. • And teach you American English word structure: syllable stress/accent, syllable types, etc. FULLY ONLINE I am set-up to take advantage of all that the internet has to offer. We work over Skype. This allows for lip-reading at a comfortable distance. I have my material on an on-line whiteboard, at iDroo.com, that we can both see and write on. We do our pronunciation homework over Extempore.com. The homework will keep you busy learning outside of class so that you will advance more quickly without spending as much money. LEARNER CENTERED My teaching style is learner-centered and learner directed. This means that each session is for you and not for me. My lesson plan is always flexible. If you want to drill sounds for an hour, I will be patient. If you want to lighten up and have a relaxed conversation, I will accommodate. If you want something in-between, just let me know! SAFE AND RELAXED LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

Ciao! :) I'm Gaia, I am an enthusiastic and devoted Foreign language Tutor with many years of experience. I teach Italian to students of all ages and levels, with a passion for the language, the country, or for professional purposes, also for GCSE, Italian Citizenship and Passport exams preparation. Foreign languages and get to know different cultures have always been my greatest passion. After graduating in "Social and Psycho-Pedagogical foundations", I studied "Modern Languages and Literatures" at the university in Italy, and then I fulfilled one of my dreams by moving to one of the most multicultural cities in the world, my beloved London. Here is how my love for teaching and interpreting started! Practice with a native speaker is essential to learn a foreign language... and I believe that learn having fun, in a relaxed and mistake-welcoming learning environment without too many formalities, is much easier than open a book and just read an explanation! Every lesson is tailored to the student: focusing on your chosen subjects and learning needs, I will create personalised thematic lessons and intercultural activities, including pronunciation, reading comprehension, conversation and grammar drills, to guide you in an immersive learning journey and helping to gain more and more confidence. The teaching materials used are prepared by myself but I also use reference books, which I will share with you. Learning a language has never been so exciting! Feel free to contact me, I am available for any questions you might have. A presto! ;)
