Great teacher!

Don't think twice, just book ! Fay is an unbelievable tutor who has been helping my son with Eng LAL Internal Oral journey. Whilst we initially expected a supplement to his current teacher, to our surprise Fay has added a totally new dimension and dynamic which is evident in my son's approach and confidence towards the task. We look forward to also leveraging her experience for the pending exams.
Fay gave an excellent explanation of the English Language and Literature curriculum for IB exams. She put me at ease and I am happy to be learning with her and confident her teaching skills will be very beneficial to me.
Great teacher. Appreciated her insightful lesson.

Ahmed Hassan
English for primary and intermediate levels (tenses)
Knowing the differences between tenses and applying some tests on tenses in a very simple and easy way for children will help them a lot later on. This lesson is one of the most important topics that must be well established because all sentences are dependent on it later on and it helps in understanding sentences and helps in speaking and knowing the required tense for each sentence. I have more than two years of experience in explaining such lessons. I studied child psychology, which helps me understand the student’s brain and deliver information in a way that is very appropriate for each student. This is what distinguishes me from others.

Nina
German lessons in language & culture with a native speaker, learn online and with joy, exam preparation
As a German teacher with many years of experience, I teach both beginners and advanced learners, and accompany students from different countries in literature, history, reading comprehension and language skills. In my Language and Culture course, I combine learning a foreign language with getting to know German traditions, holidays, history and society, because all of this is part of learning German. I really enjoy observing the progress of my students and I have accompanied many of them on their journey for many months or even years, which creates a close and trusting relationship between students and teachers and allows them to learn with joy in a relaxed atmosphere! To get a first impression of my methodology, you can also visit my profile on eduki. Here you will find me under the author name LaMiaInsegnante and over a hundred teaching materials that I use in my classes. Feel free to take a look!

Memorizing the Holy Quran and teaching Arabic and English
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to God. The Arabic language and Islamic sciences are worldly sciences, and a Muslim must be familiar with them and know them so that his life can be straightened out by memorizing the Holy Qur’an and learning the Arabic language. I am also good at teaching Arabic to foreigners and teaching English to beginners.
