Introduction:
I started learning languages when I was 10 and have been interested in them ever since. As English native speakers in an international setting, we're always seen as the only monolinguals around (people who only speak one language). I believe that this stereotype is all too true as we're led to believe that everyone speaks English and, as a result, we don't need to bother ourselves learning other languages. This may be true in areas where tourists greatly flock to such as Paris or Berlin. But this isn't really the case further afield, and the locals love it when you try even just with a few words or sentences.The benefits to learning a second language, a third language or even brushing up on one you already started some years ago are plentiful. So, what are you waiting for?Give me a call or a text today!
How do the classes work?I will travel to a place of your choice, usually your home, and deliver the lesson from there. If there is somewhere else you would prefer, this can be discussed. Below, you will find prices and locations, but we can discuss what's best for you.Coffee shops aren't usually recommended as they can be too noisy during the day. I recommend home visits or quieter locations, especially for practising to speak the language, which is arguably the most important part.
