Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 18. Feb 2021
My name is Kinneret Ely, and I am an opera singer based in New York City and Tel Aviv. I am American-Israeli, born and raised in the United States. I finished my Bachelor's degree cum laude at Hunter College, in New York, specializing in languages, literature, and history. I also spent a lot of time in Israel growing up and spoke Hebrew at home. I love languages, and I have studied Italian, French, German, and Russian, to the point of reading literature in them, as well as conversing in them. As a result, I'm familiar with the challenges that come with learning a new language, and the specific difficulties of English grammar and vocabulary to foreign language speakers.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I know firsthand that every student learns in a different way--some learn best visually, others aurally, etc. My background in languages and as an opera singer means I can both show how to pronounce words clearly, and explain how to create the exact sound I'm modeling (as far as teeth/tongue/etc positions needed to make them). My familiarity with several languages means that I have a firm grasp of the fundamental differences between languages and their grammar, and I can explain them as well as model them. My travels and familiarity with other cultures make it possible for me to explain the cultural norms and expectations of English language discourse.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
In my tutoring experience, I believe the best way is by adjusting my method of teaching with each individual student, to help them improve most effectively. Also, I'm a big believer in making the lessons fun--that helps make the material stick even more! :) Please drop me a line and see how we can work together!
In addition to English lessons, I also offer English proofreading (up to 10 page works on a Word document.)
*Please contact me before booking this service. The proofreading does not include any video lesson. All communication for this service will be conducted through messages.*
$20 (USD) per hour--I use Microsoft Word to track time worked. $20 minimum for this service.
Kinneret was great. Pleasant, patient, professional and adapted herself to each of the children and their level. We found the teacher, we continue with her. Thank you

I study Hebrew with Kinneret. She is a very motivating and charming teacher. Lessons are flexible. You can choose topics you want to learn. Kinneret has command of astounding number of languages and can draw helpful parallels between them. Also, what I find of great importance, she pays attention to the proper pronunciation.
After each lesson Kinneret sends me audios of new words and phrases. Have you ever had an opera singer record such for you? I assure you it’s great.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kinneret, and I cannot recommend her enough! She is incredibly patient and a fantastic listener, which is key to identifying and correcting spelling and grammar mistakes. Kinneret is not only knowledgeable but also charismatic, friendly, and kind, making each lesson enjoyable and productive.
Her ability to pinpoint areas for improvement, especially in pronunciation and grammar, has been invaluable. If you’re looking to refine your English skills, whether it’s for conversation, writing, or anything in between, Kinneret is the tutor you need. I strongly recommend her to anyone aiming to boost their confidence and accuracy in English.
