M.A. graduate now living in Calgary offers English lessons face-to-face and online!
Methodology
For me, the best teacher is the one who listens to the needs of his students. Therefore, during our first lesson, I will let you speak and demonstrate the level of English you already possess (if there is none, no problem either!) and we will go from there. Lessons will be catered to your own personal goals!
Background
I have been giving English extra lessons since I was in 10th grade. Now, due to my University background (B.A. in English: focusing mainly on Literature & Translation), hopefully more grammatically precise than 10 years ago ;) English has always been a passion of mine and I will do my best to assist you in your quest to master the English language.

Lara's Resume
I have a B.A. in Arabic and English from the University of Jena in East Germany and am currently waiting on my M.A. diploma in Arabic Studies from the University of Münster to be delivered to my doorstep. I have been lucky enough to extensively travel the world: I spent 8 months in New Zealand and a while in Australia before my studies began, which made me gain lots of in depth experience in the subject I am teaching.
Reviews on Lara
1 recommendation
Lara and I met and at university and spend quite some time together studying and with extracurricular activities. She is a very organized, punctual, patient and above all a very committed woman in all aspects of her life.
Spending several days in Turkey together during an excursion Lara was the go-to translator for our group and she was an amazing help. I am happily recommending her to anyone who wants to experience the pleasure of studying a new language with a true language lover. Especially someone like Lara who studied and mastered several languages herself can transfer her knowledge and experience in the best possible way to her students.
