    English (including as an Additional Language), Humanities (History, Geography, Religion), Test preparation

    Hello,

    My name is Anna and I am a UK qualified teacher. I specialise in teaching English, English as an Additional Language and Humanities subjects. I have taught in the UK and also in Swiss international schools. and have experience teaching the UK national curriculum and the IB at Middle School & High School level. I have also worked extensively with pre-school and infant school aged children providing extra homework support or EAL lessons.

    My classes are flexible based on the needs of my pupils. I understand that everyone learns differently, and it is very important to me to get to know my students as individuals. Normally I would follow the syllabus curriculum, but I am also very happy to tailor lessons on a more individual basis. I make sure that lessons are varied, including quizzes and different activities and also record pupils' progress on a weekly and quarterly basis.

    About Me

    I am a recently qualified teacher specialising in the Humanities and acquisition of English as an Additional Language.

    I believe very strongly that young people are incredibly capable and that the unlocking of their own potential can always be achieved with the right level and type of support.

    I am friendly and outgoing, I love to ski in the winter and go hiking and swimming during the summer. I've lived in Switzerland for the last 2 years and now I can't imagine being anywhere else!

    I am eager to help you learn and improve your English language in an interesting and effective way. I know how to learn foreign languages efficiently as I have learned English on my own. Now I want to share my methodology, sources and tips with you.

    Ekaterina
    Teacher of English for adults and children of any age and level
    I teach adults and children of any age and any level, The core of my approach is: - Practice, practice, practice! Language proficiency is not knowledge but a SKILL. Every single theoretical topic should be practiced. For that reason, all my courses are full of practical tasks. - Having fun while learning. Only by having fun can your studying be effective. That’s why the practical tasks of my courses are interactive games. Another crucial point is 100 % clarity of the course theory — learning objectives for every course is made clear from the start. - Focus: There is too much information nowadays. It’s more and more difficult to navigate through it. So it’s important to have high-quality curated information for your studies: precisely what you need to address your specific needs: a real language for real life. - Authentic language: My courses are free from artificial phrases that can still be found in textbooks. I provide only genuine language spoken by people in real life. - A teacher’s mission is to inspire and to give direction, not just transfer knowledge into a student’s head. The best result is when students can learn by themselves, and when they are motivated to use every opportunity to master a foreign language. I will readily share strategies and resources for independently studying foreign languages. - Result vs process. A foreign language is not about good grades. Its real purpose is to improve your life. That’s why each lesson is another step toward your better life. No unnecessary information but precisely what you need to achieve your goals.

Using all your abilities, you will learn by speaking and listening, watching videos and listening to music, using all possible senses! Come and learn in an interactive and fun way! My classes are tailored to be interesting and relevant to each student. For adults in particular, I teach based on what interests the student, studying things like pieces of music, episodes of series, stories and other short texts, news in English – the possibilities are endless! From this, we will learn vocabulary and grammar in a natural way, without the rigid and boring study of rules. For children, I also teach exclusively in English! From the very basic level, I make good use of PowerPoint, photos and videos to introduce basic words and grammar little by little, helping them learn as they learned their first language – without translation. This way of teaching brings excellent and fast results.

    Private lessons in Arabic and English to build my little champions from the beginning
    My name is Mariam from the United Arab Emirates. I specialize in establishing children from 4 years old to third grade in Arabic and English subjects with more than seven years of experience in teaching. I love children and I have patience in understanding the needs of my young students. I establish them and teach them new words. My priorities are to explain in detail and in stages until the child acquires the information. I send the exercises to the guardian before the specified class time to print them for the child. If he has a printer, I contact the guardian at the end of the class to tell him about the level of their child with me. May God bless you, my little heroes 🤍

    Claudia Veronica
    Conversation in English through Positive Psychology
    What are the sessions about? The sessions are to work on conversation in English through topics and content of psychology, well-being and self-help. The presentation is designed so that the person shares their comments on several occasions and elaborates responses using common vocabulary, improving conversation, fluency, vocabulary, and pronunciation. The content is on positive psychology topics, where tools for life are acquired through information and reflection exercises. Breathing techniques, mindfulness, gratitude, habits, resilience, flow state, resistance to change, and more are mentioned and used. Why use positive psychology content? According to several studies, including a study conducted by Cambridge in 2022, the best method to learn a language is through immersion (exposure and engagement). This means that when we learn topics or activities that interest us, the brain activates the prefrontal cortex, the striatum, the limbic system, and the hippocampus, which are the areas of long-term memory, motivation, concentration, reward, and emotional experience. These functions together create greater receptivity to new information. It is about talking about topics that motivate and interest us to enhance learning. They are also life tools that benefit us all. The more a person opens up to talking and reflecting on their personal experiences, whether positive or negative, the more they will be able to handle life's difficulties and improve their well-being. What level should I be at? Once you understand the written and/or spoken language, and can say the basics, we can start working. It doesn't matter if your level is basic, since that's exactly what the sessions are for. When you try to create a statement with interesting content, the areas of the brain that promote learning are activated. Here, through the chat, pronunciation and grammar are corrected, new vocabulary is added, and the correct way to say what is desired is taught. The person is asked to repeat the statement "correctly" and that's how learning takes place. How long will it take to see changes? The time varies for each person, as it depends on their initial level, and if the method is compatible with their way of learning. It is recommended to evaluate if this method is suitable for you, after the first session. However, due to previous experience with people at a basic - intermediate level, changes in fluency are seen from the first two or three sessions. From the first or second session you will notice more comfort when speaking and listening to the language. What mental health benefits can I get from sessions other than language? The sessions are taught by a clinical psychologist trained in positive psychology and other therapy methods. Some of them can be used in the sessions. The topics covered encourage conversations about personal life, and only if it is of interest to the person, can they delve into it and use this space to work on certain topics through psychological guidance. Additionally, information supported by scientific evidence will be provided, on tools for greater emotional well-being based on positive psychology, and reflection on mental and personal habits will be encouraged. Important: This is NOT, nor does it seek to replace, psychological therapy. Issues that require further exploration and/or external help will be referred to a therapy or a professional as appropriate. By what means can I take the session and how many frequencies do I need? Most sessions are via Zoom. The teacher will send you the link via WhatsApp or email and at the time of your session you can access it via a device. It is recommended once a week if the session is individual. You will notice that they are very complete and you may be a little tired after the session, if you are not very familiar with the language. If the session is in a group of two or more people, it can be once or twice a week. We will talk about many interpersonal topics in the session and we may follow up during the week by sharing relevant content via WhatsApp and voice notes, also in English for both parties to continue practicing fluency and vocabulary. It can be in person in Monterrey, Nuevo León in groups of 3 or more, or within the Republic for workshops.
