English Lessons and Test Prep with a Native English Speaker

Àpd 31.49 C$ /h

As someone who has studied foreign languages themselves, I understand the difficulties of learning a new language. My goal as an instructor is to make students feel as confident as possible when speaking. I love teaching, and the most important part of my role, I believe, is to establish a comfortable environment for my students so they feel good and not intimidated about learning a new language. Each student’s study plan is unique so I begin by identifying their strengths and areas for growth. I’m happy to accommodate students’ specific needs and offer customized lessons as well.

I provide individualized English language tutoring for students, adults and business professionals at all ages, levels, and skills. I provide help with writing (essays, thesis, scientific articles) exam preparation, interviews and applications, and provide proofreading services.

I am CELTA certified in addition to six years of teaching experience. I can readily adapt lessons to fit all skill levels and learning goals. Depending on the individuals needs, lessons will primarily focus on speaking and pronunciation or building comprehension and grammar skills through reading and writing exercises.

Présentation

Hello, my name is Brianna, I’m a native English speaker born in the US. After I graduated from the University of California, Davis I moved to Turkey to teach English. I have been teaching English to students of all ages and backgrounds for over 5 years now. I’ve previously worked in Turkey’s top primary schools and later as an instructor at a University.

As someone who has studied foreign languages themselves, I understand the difficulties of learning a new language. My goal as an instructor is to make students feel as confident as possible when speaking. I love teaching, and the most important part of my role, I believe, is to establish a comfortable environment for my students so they feel good and not intimidated about learning a new language.

Each student’s study plan is unique so I begin by identifying their strengths and areas for growth. For students who just wish to have a bit of speaking practice, I recommend 30-minute sessions where we can practice speaking about different topics or anything you wish. I’m happy to accommodate students’ specific needs and offer customized classes as well. Whatever your goal is, I will help you come up with a plan to achieve it.

Education

In 2016 I received a BS Genetics and Genomics from the university of University of California, Davis as well as a BA Philosophy with an emphasis in applied ethics.

Expérience / Qualifications

I have almost 8 years of experience in nearly every field of English including practical English, conversational English, medical English, business English and test preparation for TOEFL and IELTS.

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 ones needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

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 :)

My methodology: Learning to structure one's thoughts to express oneself better
My approach is based on a simple observation: success is not achieved through lack of effort, but often through a lack of method and confidence. My role is to transform subjects sometimes perceived as abstract (Philosophy, French) or intimidating (English) into concrete tools for success.

The typical course of a session:
1. Quick diagnosis: We start by identifying the areas of uncertainty from the previous lesson or the difficulties with a specific exercise.
2. Taking action: No boring lectures! We work on concrete exercises, essay plans or oral practice (in English) to "learn by doing".
3. The "Montreal Method": Having worked for two and a half years in Quebec, I use a North American pedagogy that is very focused on encouragement, clear structure and student autonomy.
4. Summary & Objectives: We end each session with a recap of the key points so that the student knows exactly what to revise.

What makes the difference: As a philosophy student, I don't just teach authors; I teach the methodology that allows students to think for themselves about major philosophical concepts. In English, my dual nationality allows me to naturally correct speech patterns and accents. In French, I've had the privilege of preparing dozens of students for their Baccalaureate exams, using a targeted approach. My experience has taught me that there are no wrong answers, only ideas that need to be better formulated.

As an English Teacher in Al-Manhal Schools from Tunisia (تونس), I have an experience teaching Elementary, Intermediate and Secondary level students across multiple curriculums. My classes are learner-centered with a major focus on students personal capabilities by taking into consideration Multiple Intelligences within the classroom environment.

I promote students' academic growth in the 4 target language skills: Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking. And I also work to build a strong foundation for young learners and those who know little about the English language.

I also have a Baccalaureate in Mathematics and can help students in Elementary levels improve their skills.

Learn to Perfect Your American English Accent and Communication Skills—for Work, Academics, and Everyday Life
Great for Study Abroad and International Students!

“Where are you from? ...No, but where are you actually from?”

I was born and have lived in the United States my entire life (28 years). I lived in the rural Midwestern state of Wisconsin until age 13. Then I lived, attended middle school, graduated high school, and attended university in the major U.S. cities of Chicago, Illinois, and San Francisco, California.

I come from a bilingual home, and my parents speak with an accent—but my American English accent is clear, standard, and natural.

I’m happy to work with you to help you sound more American. This can be extremely useful for English learners who want to communicate more confidently and comfortably in school, at work, and in daily life.

We will cover:
• Accent and pronunciation
• Pacing and rhythm
• Vocabulary and word choice
• Delivery and confidence

All techniques are based on evidence from linguistics and communication studies, so you’ll understand why they work—not just memorize rules. Accent and communication improvement is a science and an art.

I have worked in journalism, speech-language pathology, tourism, and customer service. I have experience in high-academic settings (like museums and graduate seminars) and everyday settings (like working in stores). I am currently working toward a Level 5 TEFL diploma.

I have one semester left in my degree in Spanish and Chinese at San Francisco State University, and I plan to move abroad for graduate school. I have also taken graduate-level classes in Chinese and Spanish. I speak eight languages fluently, and I understand what it takes to make a foreign-language accent sound natural and confident.
I’m warm, friendly, patient, professional, open-minded, and flexible. Every student has a unique journey in language learning, and I will meet you where you are to meet your goals.

Feel free to message me with any questions!
