Hi!
My name is Ria.

I have many different friends from across the globe. The next country I want to visit is the Finland.
My hobbies are: sewing my own clothes and building jigsaw puzzles.
I love hanging out with my friends and getting to know new people.Me as a Teacher
My qualifications are:
Bachelors’ degree in Drama.
Post-Graduate Teaching Certificate
Honours of Bachelors in Education
Level 3 TEFL certificate.
I also have 14 years of teaching experience and 3 years experience in Italki.
I have a neutral South-African accent and my voice is clear and easy to understand.My lessons & teaching style
I believe that the best way to learn a language is by speaking that language as much as possible.
I believe that practicing listening helps to develop speaking skills faster. Confidence and fluency comes when you practice speaking and listening (Conversation practice)
I also encourage students to tell me what they expect from me, so that I can adjust my teaching to their needs.My teaching material

Ria is a wonderful listener with endless patience. She would understand you perfectly even though you might not feel like expressing yourself clearly. What’s more, every subject are welcomed to talk with her, ranging from daily life to politics. Anyway, I’m glad to meet such a motivating and knowledgeable teacher like her.
