Karolina

I am an enthusiastic, fully qualified Foreign Language teacher with a specialisation of teaching German. I would like to share my passion to languages with everybody. I speak and can teach three of them: German, English as a Foreign Language and Polish.

Tutoring Experience

My experience of teaching is over 10 years and about 15 years of private tutoring. I have studied German in The Teacher Training College of Foreign Languages with the speciality of German. Then I got a Master Degree in Pedagogy (Teaching).
In my country I was a teacher in the secondary school and a Examiner for National Secondary Schools Exams for 10 years.
I am registered as a teacher in General Teaching Council of Scotland and can legally teach in this country.
I am a member of PVG Scheme.

Tutoring Approach

Since I started studying I was a tutor preparing children/adults to pass exams, helping them to achieve a high level in German. All my tutees achieved what they planned and what planned their parents for them, passing all national exams, some of them started studying German and successfully finished with Master Degrees. I was also a tutor of English for younger children, home teaching them basics and here in Scotland, to help them to accommodate easier to new environment. As I am a Polish native speaker I can also teach Polish if anybody wants to learn this language.
I use variety of materials and books as well as different methods, normally depending on tutees ability to learn languages, commitment and time. But I can also use books and materials which the tutee wants to use.
