Hi, I’m Linz, a qualified teacher with over five years of experience. In February, I was one of Italki's most in demand English teachers! I’ve lived in four different countries and have a diverse heritage that includes English, Spanish and Hungarian.

I prepare students for many different exams and specialise in Cambridge English exams like FCE, and CAE, focusing on strategies and practice.
BUSINESS
I assist with business English, including interview prep and presentation skills, emphasizing vocabulary and communication.

Me as a Teacher
EMPATHEIC TEACHING APPROACH
As an ESL teacher, I bring a high level of empathy to my teaching approach, understanding that learning a new language can be both exciting and challenging.
RECOGNIZING STUDENT STRUGGLES
I recognize the unique struggles of each student, whether they are grappling with pronunciation, vocabulary, or grammar. My empathetic nature helps me create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and asking questions.
TAILORED SUPPORT AND MOTIVATION
I strive to connect with each learner personally, providing tailored support and motivation to help them build confidence and achieve their language goals.
My lessons & teaching style
REPETITION AND FUN
I find that repetition and fun are essential for effective learning, so I make sure our classes are both engaging and dynamic. I’m dedicated to creating a motivating environment.
MATERIALS FOR REVIEW
At the end of each class, I provide you with all the materials we’ve covered. This allows you to review and practice at your own pace, reinforcing what we’ve learned.
PRONUNCIATION AND SPEAKING
I focus on pronunciation and speaking, understanding that these areas can be challenging. With regular practice, speaking will become more natural and less intimidating. I’m here to support you every step of the way, helping you build confidence and improve your skills.

Linz is the best English tutor I've ever had. She managed to prepare me to CAE exam despite the fact, that I had so little time. She is very patient, understanding and encouraging. Lessons with Linz are so effective and packed with knowledge.
