원어민 쌤 프로필

I have 2 language teaching master's degrees, in English teaching and in Foreign Language Acquisition. Using these, I gradually release language learning to you.

My lessons are targeted to your level and goals, are fun, simple, and no stress. To build your mastery and confidence in a relaxed and natural way, I provide constant encouragement and feedback on collocations, grammar, and pronunciation as we discuss current events or topics that interest you, .

My students say, for example: "Tana is the by far best teacher I found on Verbling. I've found so many good teachers here, but Tana beats them all. Super competent, super engaged, with a very strong culture about language and a true passion for teaching. A+++"

Most students are recommendations from current students,
and I have taught several of the same students for over 4 years on Verbling. They have progressed and reach higher speaking and professional goals continually. The takeway from this is that to improve, consistent practice is vital.

I speak advanced Spanish, French, Italian. Intermed German. Have taught in Europe, South America, Asia, Middle East, US.

Help w/tests, CVs, interviews, speeches, business terms, etc.

LESSON DURATION:
Academic hour, so lessons are 50 minutes long.

WHAT LESSONS DO FOR YOU:
It takes 100 to 200 hours of instruction to move up an English level, thus from A1 to A2 (90-100 hours), and at least 1,000 hours from A1 to C2.
