Hi there, I'm Kinga, a native Australian English teacher & creative entrepreneur. I have a big heart for people, & I believe that language learning is relationship-based & communication-driven, just like when we learn our mother tongue. So, I have close relationships with my students, many of whom have been with me for many years. We are an integral part of each other's week, & lessons are more like conversations with a good friend who is also happens to be your language coach. I've been teaching English for over 11 years (Oxford, Cambridge, Birmingham, London, Italy, Spain, Austria, Hungary) & 6 years online. I’m a professional, 3rd generation career teacher with a background in psychology, philosophy, & an interest in coaching. In my lessons, I teach my students not only English, but also how to actually learn, based on the latest research in learning theory (see the section on LEARNING TIPS), & on their personal aptitudes & style. This empowers students to take the learning process into their own hands, & I become a partner & a coach in building & expanding their English communication skills.
