Vanakkam,
This is Merry. I am a native Tamil speaker and tutor.
I write Tamil poems and articles for magazines as a hobby. I have worked as a compere and announcer on a Tamil radio (I was selected for fluency and pronunciation). I have done Tamil translation (from English) as a part of my previous job. I have conducted Tamil creative writing and storytelling workshops for young learners.
I have hands-on experience in tutoring the Tamil language for more than 15 years (both online and offline). My students are from the UK, Singapore, Hong Kong, USA, Switzerland, Australia, Sri Lanka, and India.
Me as a Teacher
I have students from various countries. I teach Tamil for people of all ages (from 5 years old kid). I can help you to :
# Read, write, or converse in basic Tamil (any age)
# Spoken Tamil for people of all ages (converse with your Tamil-speaking community in Tamil fluently)
# Learn school curriculum
# Public speaking (formal Tamil for kids)
# Creative writing (for kids)
# Storytelling (for kids)
# learn Bharathiyar songs (for kids)
You may learn Tamil for any reason. It may be culture, travel, or academic purpose. Whatever your goals may be, I can help you achieve them.
I welcome you to have a trial class with me. We can discuss your learning goals and how to reach them.
My lessons & teaching style
