Speaking English as a second language class - native speaker - CELTA-qualified

Von 21.37 € /Std

Hello! My name is Helen and I provide online English tuition. I am a native speaker with a neutral accent and I live in Scotland.

I can help you to speak English as native speakers do and introduce you to life in the UK. I am friendly, enthusiastic and easy to talk to. I have a qualification to teach English (CELTA).

I give lessons on Zoom and use Google Classroom to share homework and other material. I love chatting in English and finding out about my students’ interests. I plan high-quality lessons on interesting topics.

In the lessons, we focus on speaking, listening and grammar. For homework afterwards, I will give reading and writing tasks. I would be happy to adapt the classes to suit you.

I have a Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (CELTA) from the Centre of English Studies, Edinburgh. It is an intensive course which lasts for one month and provides valuable skills and experience in teaching English as a foreign language. I also have a BSc in Neuroscience from the University of Edinburgh.

I have a variety of experience in teaching roles. I previously worked part-time as a one-on-one Maths Tutor for high school students. I also volunteered as an English teacher in an orphanage in India.

I am happy to take requests from people of all levels, although I do have more experience with intermediate level students (B1/B2).

If you are interested in tutoring, please get in contact with me. I would love to hear from you!

I help schoolchildren and adults to learn both German and English. With fun and empathy. What distinguishes my lessons is that I have a lot of patience for my students and practice with them until they understand it. Everyone loves teaching with me. I respond to my students' requests and my goal is to help students make progress without burdening them. I give assignments after every lesson and create regular progress reports.

SOME REVIEWS:
Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11-year-old daughter for the past few months, and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to one's needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Each lesson is fully personalized to your level, goals, and specific needs (exams, immigration, work, studies, administrative procedures).

Sessions can focus on:
- DELF, DALF, and TCF exam preparation (practice tests, methodology, assessment criteria, oral and written simulations)
- French for immigration and naturalization
- Administrative French (forms, letters, understanding official documents)
-Professional and business French (emails, meetings, interviews, industry-specific vocabulary)
-Improving speaking skills, pronunciation, and fluency
-Strengthening grammar and vocabulary in context

The lessons are dynamic, structured, and interactive, with a strong emphasis on speaking practice. I use authentic materials: exam topics, administrative documents, articles, videos, and professional dialogues.

Thanks to my experience as an oral exam jury member and as a DELF, DALF, and TCF examiner, I will help you understand exactly what examiners expect and adopt the right strategies to succeed.

Regular follow-up is provided, with clear objectives and detailed feedback to track your progress and build confidence.

Bachelor's student in economics and management offers private lessons in German, French and English.
I obtained my bachelor's degree with a specialization in mathematics and physics and I have sufficient knowledge in mathematics, physics, chemistry, German, English and French.
In my teaching, I adapt to the learning conditions and the student's life in order to strengthen their self-confidence and ensure that they understand the lessons and progress.
My goal is to create an effective learning environment. I rely on the student's course, which I supplement if necessary with additional information.

Taking time to practise speaking the language you are learning is crucial in the development of your active vocabulary. This will allow you to communicate with greater fluency and confidence.
You can suggests topics or discuss a variety of topics like hobbies and passions, work and travel or anything that you would like to work on. Throughout the class I will keep track of any and all vocabulary that you were unfamiliar with and go over them with you as well as send the list to you at the end of the class, to keep track of words and expressions as you encounter them.
I have several games that I believe to be well suited for the learning of vocabulary. These will add an element of fun to the process of learning.

My knowledge of languages was very crucial. After my husband's premature death I did replacements but after a while I started giving private language lessons. I spoke French until I was six.

Welcome!
Are you ready to start speaking and writing English with confidence? My lessons are fun, interactive, and personalized to your level. We focus on practical English you can use in everyday life — talking to friends, traveling, or preparing for school or work.

In each lesson, you’ll practice:

-Speaking in full sentences
-Writing short texts and messages
-Understanding grammar in context
-Boosting your confidence in English

I create my own materials tailored to your level and goals, and I can also supplement lessons with online worksheets or teach from a textbook if you prefer — you’ll participate in the lesson directly from the book without me providing copies.

The first lesson will allow you to experience my teaching style and get comfortable with the format before moving on to longer lessons. Lessons are tailored to kids, teens, or adults, so each session is adapted to your goals and learning style. I teach lessons in English or German, depending on what’s most comfortable for you.

Book your first lesson today and take the first step toward speaking English confidently!
