Age ranges

I teach all ages.

Teaching style

Joanna is interested in behaviour and learning and likes to help people to achieve their goals.

Joanna likes to keep her lessons interactive and fluid, allowing for as much conversation and discussion as possible. She focuses on current topics by looking at recent new articles. In the case of beginners she teaches situational role plays and context specific vocabulary. For more advanced students she encourages open discussion and debate on topics that interest the student.

Joanna is a patient and flexible teacher who tailors lessons to suit the needs and desires of the student. She is sensitive and empathetic as she is also learning a second language, Spanish.

Joanna corrects her students during lessons (or at the end of each lesson) and provides ongoing feedback. Where common mistakes are identified she will design future lessons in order to help the student improve in these areas. Her aim is to help her students to gain confidence and expand vocabulary whilst correcting any exisiting issues.

Hobbies

"The English tutors at Live Lingua are top class. I needed an intensive course to prepare me for my job interviews and their course was great. I got 2 job offers after my interviews. Almost all of the questions we practiced in the course were covered in the class." Fuad A. - Insurance Agent

"This is especially useful for people with a disability like me. I am in a wheelchair and had trouble getting around. With Skype lessons [with Live Lingua] I can take the classes without any problem." Jorge R. - Army Veteran

"The English lessons were great. I already spoke pretty advanced English, but I had trouble understanding my coworkers when they spoke quickly. I practiced for 6 months with three English teachers on Live Lingua and I can now understand everything, even when people are speaking fast." Jayesh P. - I.T.

"Since I signed up the web page, it was so friendly, people on chat answered very quickly helping me with any doubt. The schedule of lessons is adequate, and the developing of them with the teacher is perfect for me, I noticed improvement with the language, each lesson is better, and I feel very comfortable with my advance." Patricia HM. - Unknown
