Extra information
Own material from school especially workbooks will be helpfull. This is important so that I can see what is being tought, so that you can copy and study the appropriate vocabulary. Also to research and study additional fitting exercises and intensify the learning sucess. It is good to really see what is being done in class at the time and to do the homework together and to deepen problematic subjects.Location

English teacher with plenty of experience and patienceIf you want to learn English language, I am here to help you. It is not difficult as it may look, but you have to be persistent if you want to reach your goal. Let me show you that English classes can be fun and studying can be interesting.
I'm an English teacher for more than six years and I have plenty of experience. At the beginning of the course, studying material is particularly selected for each student depending on their level of knowledge. After the type of course is determined, focus is on the weak spots and improving whatever skill a student is lacking in. Speaking is always emphasized. In class students can suggest other materials, books etc and ask for lessons they want to study. Asking questions is always a good thing and cooperation between teacher and a student is crucial. If you agree, contact me and start your English course today!
I'm looking forward to helping you learn English!
