Hello and welcome to my italki profile 👋. My name is Sara, I am a Cambridge certified English teacher from Canada 🇨🇦 and I am excited to assist you on your language learning journey!
I have been teaching English for 5 years. Most importantly, I am a language learner just like you since I also speak French and a bit of German. In my free time, I like to hike or play with my two cats. 🐈⬛🐈
I believe that the best way to learn is when you forget you are studying and just enjoy the process. Every decision I make, during my classes, follows this philosophy. Thus, my lessons are relaxed yet targeted at helping you achieve full English fluency.

Me as a Teacher
📌 As a teacher, I am calm, supportive and always ready to cheer you up. I want you to feel comfortable and at ease because fear and insecurity are the biggest obstacles to language fluency. I will help you to stay motivated and to gain confidence in your English.
📌 As a professional teacher, I am fully qualified to assist you in your English learning journey. With a CELTA certificate from Cambridge and a Bachelor Degree in English Studies, I am an expert in the language and can guide you to master it as well.
As a language learner myself, I will assist you on what you should do outside of our classes, give you tips about language learning, and recommend useful study materials.
My lessons & teaching style
I am very intentional with my teaching thus I carefully plan my lessons to help you achieve fluency without realizing it.
📌 I will send you interesting and varied topics, that are both intriguing and educational. Thus, our conversations are engaging, not boring nor repetitive.
📌 During the lesson, I will give YOU an opportunity to speak extensively. Meanwhile, in the chat, I will send useful vocabulary expressions and grammar corrections. This way, I encourage you to do most of the talking and I am simply facilitating the process.
📌 The questions I'll ask you are targeted at specific language and vocabulary needs. They will challenge you to use low-frequency words and complex structures.

Sara is the best English professor you can have! I never thought of replacing her with another teacher simply because it is impossible to find another teacher as talented as she is!

I am taking an English class with Sara. She is an excellent tutor. She knows how to teach, ask pertinent questions, and stimulate conversations. We discuss all kinds of topics, including those I am uncomfortable discussing. Sara helped me realize I needed to get out of my comfort zone to improve my English.

I am truly grateful to have had lesson with Sara. She is not only kind and patient but also incredibly attentive to every detail of my learning process. Every time I speak, she listens carefully and gently corrects my mistakes, always encouraging me to improve.
Her ability to make me feel comfortable and confident, even when I struggle, is truly remarkable. She creates a supportive atmosphere where I am not afraid to make mistakes, and this has helped me a lot to overcome my fear of speaking English.
Her teaching style is professional yet warm, and it feels like she genuinely cares about my progress. I could not have asked for a better teacher to guide me at the beginning of my English journey. Thank you so much for everything!
