English Tutors & Teachers

Hey Folks, Welcome to my virtual classroom. My name is Jasna and although the continent of Europe is home, I grew up in Melbourne, Australia but spent quite a few of my adult years in Brisbane. I have been teaching English online since 2016 and I love my job. It has been a truly amazing experience meeting people from all over the world and helping them improve their English language skills. My career in Australia was mainly centered around Finance & Administration, including my own business, which means I have had many years of practice perfecting business communication skills. I also have experience with marketing and copywriting. If you are facing any of the internationally recognized English tests such as IELTS, Cambridge, PET or similar, not only have I helped many students prepare for these tests, I have also sat through the IELTS so I can help you with firsthand experience. I don’t follow a set program. Instead, my program for you is based entirely on your individual needs. Please, drop me a line and introduce yourself. I would love to help you achieve your goals to improve your English language skills. The best time to get started is right now so send me a message and let me know how I can help you. Better still, book a trial lesson and get started. I hope to meet you soon.

EXPERIENCE - I'm a qualified Tefl teacher with the Certification, Teaching English as a Foreign Language, 120 hours. I also have a BA Honours Acting Degree and an A Level in English Language & Literature. I'm an experienced teacher on three other online teaching platforms. Over the years, I have assisted my non-native friends with English Language issues and the positive feedback made me realize that I had a calling. STYLE - As a teacher, I like tackling pronunciation issues. I use a lot of techniques learned during my Bachelor of Arts Degree to aid my students with the typical difficulties they have in this area. I also focus on grammar and place speaking practice at the top of my priority list when working with students. I'm a teacher that seeks to keep my students' level of anxiety as low as possible. I know from personal experience as a student of Spanish this can be a problem. I focus on the needs and level my students are at. I work with students from all over the world from as young as 8 years old to adults in their 40s. I cover a variety of topics and levels. My classes are engaging and fun. I work closely with my students to help them to reach the goals they desire. ME - I'm an avid reader and I love writing poetry. My love of the theatre spurred me onto the pursuit of my BA Degree. I love travelling and I spend a lot of time in Spain and working on improving my Spanish. I also enjoy rollerblading, salsa dancing and meeting interesting people. I have a diverse circle of friends in London and I enjoy getting to know people from all over the world and learning about their cultures. I have a passion for the English language and I enjoy passing on my knowledge to others. I look forward to getting to know as many of you as possible.

The atmosphere of my lessons is relaxed, comfortable, and professional. You will do at least 70% of the talking. You’ll gain confidence from our lessons, and this will encourage you to practice your English in public without fear. Most lessons will include the following components: 1. “Small talk:” A social conversation about, for example, your recent weekend activities. 2. Review of our previous lesson. 3. Accent reduction and pronunciation practice: Reading aloud from a short text. 4. Main activity: We'll use a text, video, or audio sample as the vehicle to learn the new and reinforce the old. 5. Closing: Review today's lesson and plan for next lesson. During the trial lesson, we’ll find out a little about each other. We’ll talk about your needs and interests in any special vocabulary, reading and writing skills, and speaking and listening proficiency. I will ask you to estimate your level of proficiency now, and what level you want to achieve in the next three months. My areas of specialty: Vocabulary enrichment; business/professional English; writing skills; effective meetings, presentations, and interviews; and taking an advanced student to the next level. I hope I’ve shared enough information to help you decide if we might be a good match. If you have any questions before you make your decision, please send me a message.

***SEPTEMBER 21ST 2020 - UPDATED SCHEDULE *** Hi, I'm Gordon and I have 41 years. No, wait, I don't have 41 years. I am 41 years old. I have taught over 2500 hours of English classes to people that speak Portuguese, so I understand all your mistakes and why you make them. I can show you tips and strategies to help correct them quickly, easily and permanently. I teach whatever my students would like to learn but usually we focus on conversation. You speak about whatever you are interested in, topics such as family, hobbies, sport, movies, the news, gossip, or even Business English situations, specific situations at work, Technical English, job interview preparation etc. I take notes and then we spend the last 15/20 minutes correcting mistakes and doing any important grammar that comes from the conversation. I can teach students from anywhere in the world but I am particularly suited to people that speak Portuguese and Spanish. I taught English in Uruguay for 7 months and in Brazil for 3.5 years. So arrange your free 30-minute class and I hope that I can be the best English teacher you have ever had.

I can help you improve your life! My lessons are conversation-based using the American school system curriculum. I have experience teaching IELTS and TOEFL classes. I can also teach business English, pronunciation, and grammar. I've traveled all over the world and lived in Uganda East Africa as a Peace Corps volunteer where I learned the language Lusoga. I also lived in Germany for 4 years where I learned a bit of Deutch. *I'm not currently teaching children*
