Information about Umme-kulsum
I`m currently studying French and German at the University of Cambridge. I have now lived and worked in Paris and Austria, so am also familiar with French and German speaking lifestyles and cultures, and how to communicate everyday and more informally in a different language.
My teaching methods would cater to every individual`s needs, and I would prioritise making lessons that are enjoyable, interesting, and get the student speaking as much as possible. I would also incorporate lots of music, literature, film, and tv in the language you are learning, as cultural immersion is a key element to learning a language, and one that we are not exposed so much to in schools and universities.
As I`m at university at the moment, I am only able to offer online lessons.
Willing to travel: 2 miles
Experience: - English Language Speaking Assistant in Austria: I taught English in two Austrian high schools, focusing on speaking and culture. I used a variety of different methods to involved all the students as much as possible, and improve all elements of their language competencies.
- Academic Mentor: I volunteered as an academic mentor for students taking French and German GCSE, focusing on specific grammatical concepts that they were struggling with.
