Hello!

Hi, everyone! I'm looking forward to getting to know you so I can help you reach your English goals.

Hi, everyone! My name is Nina and I am a native English speaker from California. I'm currently pursuing a Translation and Interpretation degree from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Within my studies, I work in four different languages: Spanish, English, Catalan, and German. Outside of my formal studies, I like taking classes on and learning about theater, voice and performance, and speech. I am also a musician, singer, and songwriter. I have 5 years of experience teaching English as an additional language and I am TEFL Certified. I received my certification from the International TEFL Academy in Chicago in 2018. My experience has mostly consisted of private classes while also substitute teaching at a local language school.

Teaching Style

My approach to teaching language is a very human approach rather than a technical one. It's important for me to know about my students' interests, backgrounds, learning styles, and goals to better tailor an experience for them that's not only informational but applicable to their lives.
