๐ Help increase GRAMMAR and VOCABULARY ๐Ik als leerkracht
I have been teaching for the past 10 years, both online and in classes. I worked at a language school for 3 years and then decided to work on my own, offering private tutoring lessons to both kids and adults. Then I came across the online teaching platforms and grabbed the opportunity to teach and at the same time meet new people and new cultures.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
In Greece most of my students are interested in obtaining some sort of certificate (level B1 - C2), which makes the lesson more test oriented. More specifically they need to improve all their skills: speaking, writing, listening and a lot of detail is given on different grammatical phenomena. Now things are different when talking about adults whose main goal is to have a good understanding of the language and be able to use it to the highest possible level. Here emphasis is placed on the speaking skill, their vocabulary advancement and spoken grammar phenomena. I try to optimize the lesson to each student's needs and character, so material could vary from news articles to songs, etc.Certificaten

Lefkey is a good teacher, and it's easy to speak with her.
She also can understand and explain some complicated American memes, which not many people can :D
