Teaching is incredibly rewarding yet challenging because each learner has unique needs. I prioritize establishing a strong connection to ensure students feel welcome and comfortable.

Lessons with Elly are the best I've ever had!
You can talk with Elly freely about any topic.
She is a very patient listener and speaks very clearly. Corrects me and explain if I say something grammatically wrong, but in a very nice way so you can talk without any stress.
Elly is a wonderful person, taking lessons with her is a pleasure and great value! :)
