Becoming Fluent in English (A2 - C2). Flawless, Conversational, and Natural Language
course price icon
Von 30.4 $ /Std
arrow icon
I am an accomplished tutor with 12 years experience and a PhD in Linguistics.
Teaching English is undoubtedly my vocation. My vast experience enables me to develop students' confidence, improve their spoken English and prepare them for the Cambridge English exams.
My university majors were English Linguistics, Pedagogy and Psychology of High School.
I am currently pursuing a BA in North American Studies at Free University of Berlin. Studies are extremely interesting and challenging, and I'm pleased to share with students materials from English courses and my knowledge of US history.

During my English classes I focus on intensive language practice and speaking fluency.
Firstly, we will pay attention to grammatical and lexical gaps, learn to analyze speech and use less "simple" words, that is, we will enlarge the vocabulary with proper synonyms (C1-C2 level). Besides, we will gradually introduce idioms into speech and use complex grammatical constructions.

After and during each lesson I write down a lesson protocol in Google Docs, including all the material, texts, and proofreading.
It goes without saying, I guarantee a responsible approach, frequency and intensity of lessons.

Hi All,
thank you for checking out my course.

This class is open to students of all levels. Whether you are only starting to learn the wild-looking letters of the Cyrillic alphabet, or whether you are looking to practise your written and spoken Russian, I would be delighted to accompany you at any stage of your Russian-learning journey. For more advanced students, I would be happy to help you get to know one of the most defining aspects of the Russian language, namely its novels and poetry, which would be a great way to learn about the 'mysterious' Russian soul.

I believe that studying in three different countries have allowed me to try out and assess various approaches to education in general and teaching languages in particular - from the rigourous Russian system based on ensuring that the students will obtain exceptional spelling, grammar, syntax and punctuation skills, to the more relaxed yet more critical and analytical Western approach, focused on problem-solving and independent work.

You will get the benefit of a vast bank of techniques, methods and learning materials that I have developed and accumulated over the past year will be used in class to pique and maintain your interest. And since I was once a language student too, I would be able to share my personal tips and tricks with you to help you reach whatever goal you have set for yourself - be it being able to wow your friends and family by reciting a poem in the language of Dostoyevski, or impressing your future collegues with the thorough knowledge of Russian current affairs in their mother tongue!

Toby
Hi there, my name is Toby and I am a professional TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) tutor and native English speaker from London based in Berlin. I have been teaching English for 5 years to pupils of all ages and levels and can give lessons in English, Russian, French or German.

I provide a balanced class including vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and discussion but can also focus on any area in particular and have prepared students joining an English-speaking school, adults working in an English-speaking workplace and public speakers amongst others.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any further questions.

I am very satisfied with the English lessons and can only recommend Toby. With his teaching style, he creates a wonderful working and learning atmosphere in which I come out of class motivated every time. He conveys structure, explains connections and a certain logic in terms of grammar. He is excellently able to adjust to the respective level of the student. He quickly recognized my weaknesses, which he specifically focuses on. What more could you want?

Toby is an excellent English teacher. I wanted to focus on my pronunciation and accent. He patiently worked together with me using various methods. I loved so much how he taught me English. And I started hearing from multiple friends that my English had improved. Significantly! These compliments made my days :) I would be pleased to recommend him.
