Conversational English

I believe the key to being conversational is knowing how to ask good questions and being able to answer some yourself! My favorite way to practice this is by asking the student questions like, "What is the food you dislike the most?" I love the answers I get to this question! Young or old, everyone always has such funny stories or expressions of disgust and it really sets the tone for learning more about people.

English for traveling

Living in South America has made it possible to talk to many people who have traveled many different places and everyone has always had the same regret. They wish they would have been able to communicate better with locals, even I feel the same way! So I like to go over the basics with my students, everything from basic etiquette to knowing how to order at restaurants!

Having English friends

Having friends in your target language is the best way to improve but I'm sure you've noticed that sometimes, the English your friends speak can sound a bit weird. Have you noticed that words suddenly seem to blend together? Or that conversations seem to start in the middle verses the beginning? Is so, I'm here t help! I like to use this time to help my students learn about slang and even a bit on English culture .

Understanding English movies

Movies are the language of my heart. Let's talk about our favorites together!

English lifestyle and culture

Understanding the culture and Lifestyle behind a language is a sure way to master the language! I like to practice this by answering your questions! Have you ever wondered if it's really true that all English people wear their shoes inside the house? Or what Walmart is really like? If so, let's chat!

About

Hello! My name is Daphne and I am a 23-year-old native English speaker born in the United States, with a fluid comprehension of Spanish.

    Experience

    Helping people has always been a big part of my life and since 2011, I've helped in educational work for people of all ages in several di?erent countries, and this has helped give me an understanding and appreciation of those whose culture di?ers from mine. It has also helped me develop patience and an out of the box way of looking at the world and communication.

Teaching Approach

My goal is to make sure my students are able to reach their full potential in a stress-free and comfortable atmosphere.
