Avril
Hello!
Hello language students, My name is Avril and I am passionate about helping others to practice their language skills, have fun and discover the beauty of being able to communicate in a new language. I have lived in different countries, learned new languages (Spanish and Japanese) and can understand the challenges that this brings. I believe that giving a language context, communicating with native speakers and learning about new cultures are important to keep language motivation up and improve your skills. I love the outdoors (hiking, climbing, running, yoga), cooking (and eating!). I also love traveling and learning about new cultures. I would love to support you on your language journey!
I am passionate about health and wellbeing (I am a nutritionist) and love sharing knowledge about this topic. The environment is also very important for me and I feel very strongly about looking after our planet earth and educating people about how they can do the same! I spent some time studying Frontend Development and have some experience working with HTML, CSS, Javascript and Wordpress development if this is something you would enjoy discussing.

Teaching Style
My teaching style is informal, relaxed and student focused. I like to give language context and meaning. I am adaptable to what you need as I understand that each student has different objectives for their language journey. I believe that making mistakes is an important part of your language journey. I will make you feel comfortable about challenging yourself to try your best, make mistakes and learn from them so you can develop your language skills and go out into the world to use them!
