Good day, there! My name is Elena, and I'm from the Philippines. I am currently in my fourth year of college, pursuing a Bachelor of Secondary Education with a Major in English at one of the Philippines' most well-known public universities. In addition to being a part-time teacher, I am an artist. I do a variety of different sorts of art, but my favorite is creating portraits. It's fascinating to me because every time I get a portrait assignment with a lot of tough details, I use my head to figure out how to duplicate all of the elements exactly as they are in the reference, and I find it both exciting and demanding to keep my reputation as an artist.
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
I am patient and friendly, therefore I am confident that you will be able to learn the language without feeling rushed. I am open to a variety of favors and requests as long as they would help you feel more at ease while learning the language. I also make adjustments because I understand how vital it is for you to learn the language properly. But don't worry, I know how to keep myself in check in case one of my students decides to guess the correct answer on his or her own.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
Depending on the students' fluency and degree of language understanding, I adapt my classes and teaching approaches accordingly. If you're a newbie, for example, I'll teach you the fundamentals and go through each section with you one by one, and so on.
After almost 30 lessons with Elena I'm still motivated and ambitious to learn something new each week😎. Her lessons are always really interesting and I think that Elena can explain everything so well. There is never a question she can't answer to you or make you understand.
I also feel really comfortable in her class she doesn't only teach Tagalog well, she gives also good life advice and introduces you to the Filipino culture🇵🇭, which is so important in my opinion.
I'm really glad that I found such a great teacher right away that meets my expectations and also inspires me😇!
Ate if you see this I always have a smile on my face after our class and feel like I have much more knowledge after every class.
Maraming salamat 😅💗

I really enjoy learning with Elena, she is a fabulous teacher and makes her lessons fun! She customises the lesson to suit me - a more conversational style, and she is really funny and encouraging. If I struggle with any grammar points or any words her explanations are always on-point and I get it straight away! I feel more inspired to learn Tagalog thanks to Elena. Thank you!! :)

The lesson was great. I was really impressed. This teacher has a unique method for teaching this beautiful language. Many people try to translate everything from their language, halimbawa: Sisiw lang yun 🤦♂️. However, part of learning a language is having the essential cultural knowledge of that country. To be able to use the classical sayings and jokes naturally in your speech. Elena cleverly manages to teach the language while also teaching cultural knowledge (2-in-1). If you really want to learn the language, this is the right teacher.
