About Me
italki teacher since Feb 19, 2020
Hello! Hola! Salut! !احلاً привет! :) My name is Gina, and I am a native English speaker from the US.
I have a TESOL certificate and am currently a graduate student pursuing a Master's degree in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). Some topics I have written papers about include the status of English and code-switching in Egypt & linguistic biases in the media.
I also have a youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd25YXN5GYvJGor0Het8pfw/featured
My Bachelor’s degrees were in Finance and International Studies, with a minor in Economics. In addition to English, I speak Spanish, French, Egyptian Arabic, and Russian. :)
Me as a Teacher
I love teaching, traveling, meeting new people, and learning new languages. I am a very friendly and outgoing person who is excited to meet you and help you with your English journey!! :)
I really believe that immersing yourself in your target language through conversation is a great way to efficiently learn and improve. I personally take a lot of lessons on italki and always enjoy having conversations in other languages. It really forces you to think and use the language! I am here to help you practice, practice, practice!
I am very friendly and I hope to provide an open and safe environment for you to practice and improve your English! :)
My lessons & teaching style
For our lessons, we can have conversations about anything you like! We can have a free-flowing conversation or focus the conversation on a specific subject. I can make corrections directly on our chat or share a google document where we can write down what was learned in each lesson, as well as homework (if you would like) and links to helpful resources.
We can also have more structured lessons or work on American pronunciation.
As your tutor, I hope to tailor our lessons to YOUR learning style and focus on topics of YOUR interests.

It was so wonderful an experience learning with Gina!!! I benefited a lot in every class I have taken. Gina is very responsible for everything and she always gave me precious advice which helped me a lot with the task I need to prepare for. At first I was very nervous about taking italki classes but since I knew Gina and I found that there is totally no need to worry about this because she is so easy-going and understanding that I found myself so fortunate to have the opportunity to learn with her. Although I didn't take so many classes but I not only do better in English study but also learn myself better now thanks to Gina. I feel so sorry for not having much time to take more classes but this special learning experience with Gina will always keep in my heart. I sincerely wish that more people would be lucky as me to have the chance to learn with Gina hahahaha. Thank you Gina!!! And wish you all the best!!!ヾ(๑╹◡╹)ノ"
