English Teacher Needed for Private Lessons

Hi!

I'm a Spanish girl living in Zurich (near Shil City Comercial Center)

I'm looking for a native English speaker to take some private lessons. I can read and write quite well and I'm not very bad with grammar but I need to practice conversation.

I was interested in 4 or 5 hours per week. I work at home as freelance so I'm very flexible with the timetable.

If you are interested please, or write me an private message in the forum.

Thanks!

Re: English Teacher Needed for Private Lessons

Hi,
Have a look on Skype, you can find alot of groups that will offer practice english for nothing.
Usually school age students interested in pen pals (chat pals) and plenty of others...just use some caution but generally pretty good.
I am sure there are some user groups for this on skype? I've never looked....but I have heard from others they are out there...

I would happily pracitce english with you but I am not there any more

Re: English Teacher Needed for Private Lessons

Hello,
I'm an English teacher with a TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Language) degree. I give private tuitions in a school but it is not on regular basis and right now I have some more free time. I am interested in giving you lessons but I live about 40 minutes from Zürich. I'm wondering if you are still interested.

Re: English Teacher Needed for Private Lessons

There's another option too. We can set up a time and meet in skype and practice conversation or even learn grammar! If you have a webcam, it will be perfect.

Re: English Teacher Needed for Private Lessons

I have 2 kids, 4 and 2 years old.
My son (4 years old) can converse in excellent English.

So, if you can babysit them for a few evenings, while the missus and I take off to the kino, then it will be "perfect match".

Otherwise, I can also give you some proper lessons in exchange for your babysitting. I was a English tuition teacher during my undergrad days.

Re: English Teacher Needed for Private Lessons

It doesn't matter if you beat us in every standardized English test in the world. The world will still choose a native English speaker over a non-native one. The fact that you had to state the results from your country merely implies the truth of the statement.

Now if only my handwriting was as good as my Singaporean or Chinese students' handwriting, I would be happy!

Nope. Your poor grammar in that sentence rendered your insults meaningless.
