Over mij

My name is Liz, I am from the UK. I lived in Spain from the age of 8 for 9 years, completing most of my secondary education in a Spanish school. I speak Spanish as good as a native speaker, Chinese to HSK4 and a little Bulgarian. At Portsmouth University I studies applied languages, with a year abroad in China (Wuhan) and I acquired my TESOL certificate. After graduating university with at 2:1 I moved to China where I taught English as a Second Language and travelled a bit around Asia. When corona virus emerged I moved to Bulgaria (where my mum now lives on a farm) and started preparing students to take their Cambridge Exams (FCE & CAE).Ik als leerkracht
I was lucky enough to have some great teachers growing up and I try to mirror their teaching styles and passion for teaching. I have been described by my students as a kind and patient teacher. I have learnt from my own language learning experience that some concepts can be hard to get your head round, and sometimes it requires approaching a problem from a different angle before the penny drops and you realise it was not as complicated as it appeared. I am not a strict teacher, however if you would like someone that can hold you accountable and push you to your limits to help you realise your true potential, I am your girl.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
Learning a second language requires dedication and hard work, but that doesn't mean that it cannot be fun and an enjoyable experience. During my lessons I prefer to focus on speaking and listening activities, because these skills can be the hardest to practice on your own, whereas reading, vocabulary and writing can be done at home to support or reinforce concepts learnt in class. I have accumulated an abundance of teaching materials over the years and am happy to give you access to whatever I have. However, if you would like to follow a particular text book this is also an option I am open to.Mijn lesmateriaal

It's a fantastic lesson! I learned plenty of new expressions from Liz. She is very patient, when I didn't understand the meaning of a word, she explained it clearly! It's very useful!

Wow, just had my first lesson and it was great. Lizzie is kind and patient and it's great to talk to her. She also knew how to keep the conversation going. So, I just booked another lesson. I can recommend her as a teacher.

Lizzie is absolutely amazing! Why isn't it possible to give more than 5 stars :)
What I liked most is that she knows how to teach. It's one thing when the teacher knows the language well, but it's equally or even more important to know how to teach. I've been looking for the right teacher for a long time, and all that searching paid off)
THANK YOU Lizzie!!
