Read this only if you are working at a job that needs better English language skills, if you are a student, a migrant (present or future migrant), a businessman or an academic looking forward to making all your language problems go away! This short introduction is not about me, it's about you. You came to Australia for a better life, to study or to work and now you see that you need to improve your English to get the life you came looking for. You want to improve your chances of getting a better job, or want to re-qualify as a professional (nurses and medical professionals, engineers and accountants) or you want to become a permanent resident of Australia and you feel that you are stuck because of your IELTS or PTE test results and because you have studied English but you still cannot speak and write well enough. You know English words you never use and there are words you can never use when you need them. Your mind is full of grammar rules and tips but these don't help you (they actually stop you) every time you want to write or speak. If that sounds like you, you will JUST WANT to know what I know. How about improving your English communication skills without focusing on grammar and vocabulary? How about learning special learning skills that would make your language learning much easier and quicker? I enjoy simplifying things. I have more than one postgraduate degree from Australian universities, including a Master's degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). I have been living in Australia and presenting in English in multiple countries, taught and done research at the University of New South Wales in Sydney and have worked as a simultaneous interpreter for conferences for a number of years. I've been teaching English online and face to face (IELTS, OET, conversations, business writing, language learning methodology). I speak two other languages fluently and enjoy working with people from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds. In my free time, I produce voice products and write. Please note that for new candidates only one hour per week can be scheduled for at least the first two weeks.

I have a BA with Honours from Macquarie University and have been tutoring since 2000 when I finished my Honours degree. My love for literature and the fact that I write, also help me in being able to tutor at high school and university levels. I specialize in high school tutoring in English and history, particularly HSC advanced and extension as well as university level at all levels. I also help migrants improve their English language skills. Having studied languages as part of my degree I have particular expertise in English grammar which, coupled with the fact that I came to Australia in 1985 and had to learn English from scratch, gives me a great advantage in being able to teach English as a second language. I know just how it feels and what is needed! I also have a Diploma in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) and a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment.

Available only for ONLINE lessons. My name is Michele. I live in Sydney, Australia and I'm a native speaker of English. I have two licentiates in Speech & Drama (LTCL & TLSD) and for the last three years I have been teaching English as a second language to a number of Spanish speakers from South and Central America. I have a particular interest in teaching English to Spanish speakers as I have been learning Spanish for the last 8 and half years & as such have an understanding of the challenges faced by Spanish speakers when learning English. PORQUE ESCOGERME COMO TU PROFESORA Aparte del hecho que tengo calificaciones de enseñanza también como experiencia en enseñar inglĕs como segundo idioma nosotros tenemos experiencias compartidas al aprender un idioma extranjero. También me encanta enseñar mi idioma nativa. PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS A sense of humour, empathetic, caring, sociable, hardworking and curious LEVELS: A1 (beginner) to B2 (upper intermediate) Adaptare mis clases a tu nivel y necesidades especificas del aprendizaje. Como soy una persona y maestra comprensiva, siempre alagare tus esfuerzos para ayudarlo a alentarlo a mejorar tus conocimientos en el idioma Ingles. Como tal, nunca menospreciaré los esfuerzos que realices al aprender Ingles. Prefiero crear un ambiente relajado, seguro y amigable donde puedas aprender a tu propio ritmo y donde sientas que no tienes miedo de expresarte y cometer errores. Esto significa que estableceré una relación amistosa con usted desde la primera clase. Aunque prefiero que hagas tarea, no es obligatorio. Depende totalmente en cuanto tiempo tengas disponible. I will adapt my classes to suit your level and specific learning needs. As I am an empathetic person and teacher, I will always praise your efforts to help encourage you to improve your English language skills. As such, I will never belittle the efforts that you make when learning English. A) My extensive experience teaching speech and drama, as well as my experience in the entertainment industry, has equipped me with skills that I have been able to use in my English language classes. B) Through my studies of the Spanish language, I have had to develop strategies on how best to learn a foreign language. This gives me an added advantage when teaching English as a foreign language as I can teach these strategies to you C) LANGUAGE OF INSTRUCTION – ENGLISH All my classes are conducted in English to enable you to acquire the necessary skills to communicate in this language. This means I explain the significance of words and expressions in English. However, should you have difficulty understanding my explanation in English, I have the ability to explain certain expressions and vocabulary in Spanish. D) COMMUNICATION – Communication in my class is key. This means that there are always opportunities in my classes for you to express yourself freely, albeit in broken English. All of us who have endeavoured to learn a foreign language know that we start with baby steps first. E) SKILLS DEVELOPMENT I will focus on helping you develop the four skills that are necessary when learning a foreign language Listening / Speaking / Reading / Writing Spelling: As English spelling is not phonetic, I always use texts in conjunction with speaking and audio to develop your understanding of how written English sounds. Although I was brought up learning to spell the UK way, I have had considerable experience reading American literature and as such, I am able to teach both UK and USA spelling in my classes. h) TEACHING AIDS I use drawings, photographs, diagrams and maps, tables and audio to aid in the learning process

Learn English online or offline with the best private English tutors. Private English lessons will be held by TUTOROO tutors directly and custom-made for your private learning needs. Learn English effectively with the help of a native speaking English tutor. Have fun learning a new language!
TUTOROO is a website that connects you with private, in-person language tutors. We now work with 350,000 tutors in more than 160 cities. We match genuine native speakers with people who want to enhance their conversational skills in any language at their preferred place and time.
The most difficult part in learning a foreign language is the practice, which can be acquired only by conversing with a native speaker. For people willing to practice foreign languages, it is difficult to find a private language tutor who lives or works in their city. TUTOROO has been designed to provide a frictionless experience while connecting tutors to students, for private in-person language lessons.
"I've studied with a native tutor for two months because I'm traveling this week. These classes helped me a lot! I loved TUTOROO and am already recommending it to my friends."
- Mark Bariche
"I found the perfect tutor for me, I became able to speak in another language and enjoyed meeting new people from other cultures. I've improved my language skills, without traveling abroad. Thanks TUTOROO!"
Leila Zhing
"Speaking in another language is no longer difficult with the help of a teacher. Getting corrections for your mistakes helps you continue to improve in each lesson."
Andrew Guney
TUTOROO works with a community of over 4,500 private English teachers in more than 150 cities. Our English tutors help their students improve their English skills by providing them with personalised online and in-person lessons. The internet is full of helpful resources for non-native English speakers to learn English, with materials for all levels in order to improve one's vocabulary or English grammar. So why would you need to hire a private English teacher to learnEnglish?
First, private English tutors are able to meet specific English learning needs that static online resources may not always provide. With one-on-one English lessons , you can easily progress towards English language fluency. Students can choose to focus their lessons on grammar exercises, vocabulary, pronunciation, writing, reading comprehension, speaking practice, and more.
Below are some of the benefits of learning English with an English teacher with TUTOROO:
One-on-one English tuition with a private English teacher allows you to have the undivided attention you deserve. Private English classes are customised to your learning goals and your rhythm. Perhaps you are interested specifically in business English, conversational English, or private lessons for your kids - an English tutor can customise your English lessons to meet your needs and help you improve your skills thanks to real-world lessons from a native speaker.
When you learn English with a TUTOROO tutor, you get direct answers to all of your questions, this helps you improve your language skills faster in areas you struggle with, from pronunciation and vocabulary to other grammar issues. A private English teacher can immediately identify your mistakes and correct your inaccuracies. You get to ask direct questions when things aren't clear and obtain immediate answers from them.
For example, for non-native English speakers, the English language can sometimes be contradictory. For example, the 'ch' in 'chair' is pronounced differently from the 'ch' in 'chiffon'. The 'th' in 'thumb' is pronounced differently from the 'th' in 'that'. A private English teacher can help you avoid these common pitfalls to achieve English language success and gain strong English communication skills.
In a nutshell, learning English with a TUTOROO tutor is much more fun and interesting than just watching online videos or learning online through tutorials. You may now improve your English skills with our online and in-person private tutors. We actually help students from around the world improve their English skills.
Get started today and start improving your English language skills with a private English teacher now!
Everyone learns a new language at a different pace and some even start learning from scratch and have no previous knowledge of the new language they wish to learn. One may be great at English grammar but be struggling over pronunciation, or at the contrary excel in conversational English but struggle with reading and writing. In a group class, the tutor will move on if the majority of the class understands. With one-on-one private English courses, your English teacher works at the pace you are comfortable with, and can also adapt their teaching methods for you.
Unusual scheduling needs? Preparing for an English proficiency test? Need intensive English classes? No problem, you can work with your TUTOROO English teacher to find a timing and frequency that suits you for your English tuition. With a private tutor, you can take classes according to your schedule. Improve your English skills by learning from native speakers. This way, you're 100% flexible.
When you learn English with a teacher, you get flexibility, customised lessons and you get to meet a bright and interesting person: your new private tutor!
English is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world, it is also used as a second language by millions of people around the globe. English has been used as an international language since the 17th century.
The English Language is recognised as the official language in about 67 different countries. Additionally, more than 27 non-sovereign entities regularly use English as an administrative or conversational language. It is the official language of many world institutions like NATO, the European Union and the United Nations. Close to a third of the world's population (some 2 billion people) now use English, giving it the position of a global lingua franca.
With TUTOROO you may now learn English with a private English teacher in the following locations:
The English Language is regarded as one of the most difficult languages to learn for non-native English speakers. Its grammatical rules are often broken, spelling and pronunciation irregularities can even confuse native speakers. With the help of a private English teacher, you can overcome the difficulties of the English language and achieve full English language fluency. Improve your English skills now with an English tutor.
As a non-native English speaker, many higher education schools or universities where English is the standard language of teaching will require you to take an English proficiency test. This test is proof of your English language ability and ensures you have the necessary oral, aural and writing skills to complete your course. Don't let a language barrier stop you from achieving your dreams. Hire a private English language teacher to help you prepare for your English proficiency test.
The two most common tests are the TOEFL or IELTS:
TOEFL (The Test of English as a Foreign Language) is the most common English proficiency test. There are two formats for writing TOEFL and you can choose your preferred format: an internet-based test or a paper-delivered test. The sections in the test include listening comprehension, written expression, reading comprehension and speaking. The test takes about 3 hours to complete and the result is valid for two years. Most universities require that you score between 90 to 100 (B2). However, some universities may require that you attain a minimum score in each section while meeting the B2 proficiency requirement.
IELTS (The International English Language Testing System) is another widely recognised English proficiency test. The test has two versions which are the academic version and the general training version. Most employers and universities worldwide accept the academic version, while the general training version is accepted by government institutions and used for immigration.
The first 3 sections of the IELTS - listening, reading and writing - lasts 2 hours 40 mins. The last component is a speaking test done in the presence of an examiner. IELTS scores range between 1 and 9 with universities requiring a minimum of 6 or 7. The minimum score is equivalent to C1 and B2 proficiency levels. You can get your IELTS results 13 days after the test and the result is valid for two years.
Although not as common as IELTS or TOEFL, CAE (Cambridge Certificate of Advanced English) and CPE (Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English) are often an admission requirement for UK universities. Usually, only people at an advanced English level can take CAE and CPE. They are in-depth, high-level qualifications that demonstrate an English proficiency level of C1 - 7 to 8 in IELTS or 110 to 120 in TOEFL. You can take CAE and CPE either on your computer or in person. Like the other tests, the CAE and CPE tests reading, writing, listening and speaking. The speaking section of the test will be done with another candidate to test fluency in face-to-face situations. Unlike TOEFL and IELTS, CAE and CPE certificates don't expire. The highest grade is an A and the lowest score in CAE and CPE is C, with most universities requiring a minimum of B for admission.
TUTOROO works with many English tutors who are available and specialised in training for some of these tests. By browsing our English private tutor profiles, you will be able to find tutors who specialise in test preparation for English proficiency tests. You are also able to contact the tutor directly with any queries and choose the private English tutor that best fits your needs.
TUTOROO only hires tutors that get the work done. By this, we mean that learners and students pass their English proficiency test after being coached by a TUTOROO private tutor.
This must be our most popular question! With the help of a teacher and with private English lessons, learning English is much easier, quicker and more enjoyable. Of course, being motivated and focused comes in handy when learning a new language. With both online or face-to-face lessons and if you have the motivation to study a couple of hours every day, a private English teacher will help you become fluent in English in as little as 6 months!
Be patient, fluency in English is not something anyone acquires overnight. The process takes time and requires enthusiasm, that's why hiring a private tutor that can customise your English lessons to your interests and needs is important. Furthermore, face-to-face and online English lessons give you an opportunity to converse and practise your newly acquired English language skills.
Being motivated and focused comes in handy when you're learning a new language. If you have enough time to study English with a private tutor, you can become fluent in just around six months as long as you study it a couple hours a day.
In addition to studying with a TUTOROO tutor, you may want to try to get fully immersed as well once you start speaking English fluently. Being around native English speakers allows you to practise language skills you've learnt. You can also read English books, watch English speaking movies and listen to the news in English.
Interestingly, the English language isn't the most spoken one in the world, although there are over 400 million native English speakers around the planet. English is the third most spoken language - right behind Spanish and Mandarin Chinese.
Speaking English has many advantages:
