Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 23. Jan 2020
Hi, my name is Tina and I am a professional teacher of English, Czech and Slovak. I've been teaching since I was 17, especially adults and company employees. Although I come from Slovakia, my parents are immigrants. My hobbies include singing, music, reading, learning languages (human and computer ones) and cats. I'm looking forward to our next lesson!
Ich als Lehrkraft
During my time as a teacher and active language learner I've developed a unique method based on conversation and repetition. Apart from tutoring the language itself, I also offer language coaching lessons, which encompass determining the right methods and schedules suited to your needs, so our cooperation reaches its full potential.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I use authentic materials, such as movies, books, articles, news, podcasts, leaflets, etc...I believe confidence is very important in expressing ourselves accurately, so I always try to encourage my students to step out of their comfort zone and try new things. Also, I tend also to focus on vocabulary expansion and accent/intonation training.
Tina is always thoughtful and she carefully tailors the lessons every time. Whenever I have a question or a point that I am not sure of, she stops and makes sure that I understand thoroughly. She combines a multiple teaching methods including conversation, grammar and vocabulary building, all of which help me develop my overall Slovak languages skills. The best part is that she speaks fluent English AND Japanese, so she can explain the small details in either language if you’re not sure in Slovak. Thank you Tina Sensei!
