Laurence

Hey there! I`m Laurence - a helpful, patient, and very knowledgeable languages enthusiast with over 10 years` experience learning 5 languages and studying linguistics and history too.

Even if you aren`t looking to learn one of the languages I teach (German, Russian, Italian, or French-Beginner), my understanding of grammar and linguistics mean I can likely still help you considerably - even if it`s in English.

I have 3 years` experience tutoring and would be delighted to provide references from satisfied clients. I am patient, empathetic, and want you to become confident and independent. Although rock-solid grammar and wide vocabulary knowledge are two crucial foundations, I also want to make lessons interesting so you`ll enjoy them - I`m a firm believer lasting learning is impossible if you don`t.

Feel free to contact me for any further information you might need, including discussing hourly rates or experience. 🙂;;

Availability: Very good - contact me to arrange a session. 🙂;
