Despina Tutor Profile

This tutor is currently on leave.
Hi everyone!!! :)

My name is Despina, and I'm a professional English language teacher with 11 years of teaching experience. I am an enthusiastic and energetic educator, and I always try to find creative ways to motivate, inspire, and engage learners in English language learning.

I have lived in and taught English in many different countries, including Japan, Italy, Spain, and the U.K.  I have experience teaching learners of all levels and ages.

Mainly, I have been teaching English for:
- daily conversation
- business
- children's classes (kindergarten - elementary)
- junior and high school classes 

- Cambridge English exam preparation. 

I am able to adjust the lesson according to YOUR needs, and I can assure you that you will develop all four skills in English (reading, writing, listening, and speaking). Depending on the lesson, I will use different materials to help you build your skills.

Education:
- Master's degree in Teaching English as a Foreign Language 
- Bachelor's degree in English Language and Literature 
- TKT (Teaching Knowledge Test) Module 1 from Cambridge Assessment.


Hobbies:
I love traveling in my spare time, and experiencing different cultures through food, cultural festivals, and communicating with the locals.  I also love reading good books and taking long walks in nature.

Unfortunately, I'm not very good at sports :'( but I like trying with friends!


What you can expect from my lessons:
- A professional, friendly, and patient teacher who is willing to help you improve!
- Fun and interesting activities to keep you motivated!
- Help with grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciationDon't worry about making mistakes. Mistakes are part of the learning journey! I'm here to help! :)
- Useful English phrases, and tips to carry on a conversation!
- Lessons specifically designed for your needs.


***BONUS: ****
Are you dreaming of studying, traveling, OR working abroad? I can offer you some useful advice and tips for making the most out of your trip!

I look forward to meeting you!

See you online!
