Christina
Hello!
Hello! My name is Christina, and I am originally from the southern part of the United States. I've always had a strong interest in travel, different cultures, and learning foreign languages. Because of this, I decided to complete my degree in an international study program in Finland. I understand how frustrating and challenging learning a new language can be and how hard it is to gain the confidence needed to express yourself in any situation. In my own experience, access to a native speaker has been a tremendous help, both through informal chatting and structured lessons. I find helping others with their own language goals in the same way truly rewarding. I look forward to meeting you!
I love the outdoors, exploring new places, hiking, and kayaking! I also love reading and learning new things (really about anything!) One of my favorite ways to relax is to sit by the river and listen to a podcast. I have always enjoyed having pets, and currently live with two cats.

Teaching Style
I prefer to foster an environment that is relaxed and comfortable for the student. I believe that the key to fluency and confidence in speaking is being able to practice without fear of making mistakes. Positive feedback is as important as making corrections!
