English and Test Prep Tutoring (college admission or English exams)

I am a licensed, native-speaking English teacher from the USA. I have taught both in my home country and in many countries abroad, instructing native speakers as well as second language learners. I have a teaching certification as well as experience teaching both Math and Science in addition to English.
I have particular expertise with test preparation like the GRE, CAE, GMAT, CPE, TOEFL, and TOEIC, just to name a few. I recently had a student score 8 on IELTS and another score 1480 on the SAT. I have had students get accepted into prestigious institutions like Rotterdam School of Management, Purdue University, and Brooklyn School of Science and Technology.
I have also been teaching grammar and conversational English for many years now. I like to learn about my students' interests and hobbies, then bring in interesting material to work with
Though I care a lot about the success of my students, I also care greatly that they are enjoying my class. Learning useful skills and having fun are my top priorities :)

Extra information

About Me

I am an American educator who has been teaching 5+ years. Although I am primarily an English teacher, I have actually taught a wide range of subjects, from Theatre to Math to Science to Music. I have taught in New York, California, DC, Taipei, Prague, and online.

When I'm not teaching I really enjoy the outdoors and the arts. I'm an avid hiker, backpacker, camper, and rock climber. One of my previous jobs was actually as an outdoors guide! I also love playing music and can play 5 instruments (though none too well). I enjoy theatre and performance too, having been an actor in the US.

I care a lot about the success of my students but I also care greatly that they are enjoying my class. Learning useful skills and having fun are my top priorities :)

That is why I teach through Personal Learning, a student centered method of instruction. This means YOU get to choose the direction and curriculum of the course. I teach in person throughout Prague and online. Through my experiences, I became passionate about teaching. • As a teen, I was tutoring English, French and Mathematics to my family members. • In 2017, I volunteered to teach over 100 hours of marine biology to kids and teenagers in the Philippines. • From 2017 to 2019 I worked as a mining engineer and intern trainer. • Now, I completed my TEFL certification with excellent feedback from my mentors and a job offer. • I currently work with a reputable language school and give private tuition.

Luka
Teaching all school levels of Math, Biology and English
I'm a Math&bBology&English tutor for school students of all ages. My classes consist of only one student because every student needs a different approach. I personally believe that the best way to teach someone is to understand how his/her mind works and after that find the most effective and convenient method for the individual. My goal is to create a friendly and comfortable environment where you feel free to be yourself. I can definitely say that teaching is one of my hobbies and I do this with pleasure, once this wise man told me "we never stop learning, even when we get older" and I believe him. I might be the teacher in this situation but u have to always be open to new experiences. So if you think you are motivated enough to do your best then I will be more than happy to give my best to you! And if you aren't motivated enough, then we will find a way to bring that spark back to you. If you have any questions feel free to text me, will try my best to reply to you asap. Remember, its all about the journey not the destination.

High School Math, Spanish, English, Test Prep (SAT, TOEFL, FCE)
Do you want to be able to speak like a character from your favorite Netflix show? Do you want to be able to clearly present your brilliant ideas in classes or meetings, or fluently discuss your children's grades at school? Or maybe, you want to prepare for important exams like TOEFL and the SAT? Well, I am here for anything you want! As a multi-linguist - having learned 6 languages - I do know how to easily learn and teach languages, so the most important material you need to bring to class is enthusiasm :) Tailored lessons for your very own needs - General communication lessons can be informal and engaging with personal and exciting stories from me AND you! If you'd like to practice for interviews, presentations or business conferences, let me know the topics in advance so I can research and prepare for them and conduct formal conversation sessions. In case you want to prepare for an exam, I can recommend and purchase the necessary books or materials. I went to an International school where I have acquired high grades in IGCSE and IB mathematics, so if you are struggling with math, I can help you get an A+ or a 7 in those courses or in general mathematics. I also have been learning Spanish for over 6 years with a DELE certificate at Nivel B2, a level that allows me to attend university lectures in Spanish and I am able to understand the majority. If you would like to learn Spanish or if it is your second language at school, I am here for you.

Martin Menendez
ENGLISH AND SPANISH LESSONS: from beginner to proficiency level. Training for official exams, conversation tutor, practice exercises...
Hi! I am Martin Menendez, a bachelor student who is looking to teach either Spanish (my native language) or English (I'm bilingual: certified C2 English level) here in Prague, where I will be spending my year. I have experience teaching both languages, which I have been teaching for the last two years, and I offer lessons for any level! As a method, I dedicate the first lesson to more or less see the level at which the student is and therefore start developing a plan for future classes, what the student wants and needs and what areas we will spend more time focusing on. I do assign homework each week :) However, most important is having a friendly, close and personal environment where you see me as an equal and where you can ask anything you want. I also want to learn from you and this city too! I think communication is key and that is why I am available to message anytime any day. Flexibility is one of my assets since I am available from Wednesday to Sunday. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions if you are interested!

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.
