Introduction:
Everyday conversation, speaking, reading, pronunciation
Hello,
My name is Amandine, but please call me Mandy!
I have a bachelor’s degree in English and a TEFL certificate. I have been teaching English for 6 years and have taught everyone from children to adults and beginners to advanced students.
I am from Washington D.C. but have been living in Croatia for three years now. I did not speak Croatian when I moved here, so I perfectly understand the struggle and the frustration that comes with learning a new language.
It is very important to me that my classroom (whether it is online or in person) be a relaxed and safe place where my students feel comfortable and are not afraid of making mistakes, because you cannot learn a new language without making mistakes. I'm here to help and guide you.
I hope to see you soon!
Teaching Specialty:
Do you enjoy reading about and discussing current events? Choose a topic (world news, sport, culture, celebrity news) and we will read a short article and discuss it.
Don't know what to say at the bank, restaurant, etc.? I will introduce useful vocabulary and we will role-play to get you ready for any situation.
Free Conversation is perfect if you just feel like having a chat or have a specific topic you want to talk about in a relaxed environment.
