Anna: Waterloo tutor
Certified Tutor
I hold an Honours Bachelor's Degree in Translation and Interpretation, specializing in English, Russian, and Finnish languages. After my academic journey, I embraced a new adventure by moving to Mexico, where I independently mastered Spanish. My belief in the natural approach to language learning guides my teaching philosophy, enabling students to develop skills rapidly and confidently. My professional experience spans various roles at a language center, including teacher for individuals and groups of all ages, academic supervisor, and director. Beyond formal settings, I volunteer in my church as a Religion teacher for youth and an English teacher for adults. Additionally, I've ventured into relationship coaching, enhancing my capacity for empathy and understanding, expanding the realms of what I can effectively teach. Languages, religion, and interpersonal communication captivate my passion. While my formal certifications are rooted in my degree, my commitment to lifelong learning remains steadfast as I take courses and classes on subjects I'm interested in. Outside of academia, I find joy in reading, watching sports, and serving others. Witnessing the success of those I assist brings a sense of accomplishment like no other. This is a driving force behind my tutoring endeavors I aim to help others realize that with the right approach and guidance, they can conquer any challenge.

Degree: Northern Arizona University - Bachelor, Languages
I'm passionate about learning anything and everything. To achieve that, I read a lot making sure that I don't stay on the same genre or topic for too long as there's always more to find out about. My religion is important to me because it allows me to focus on other people rather than on myself, and that's how I grow the most. I have a husband and a dog; spending time with them nourishes my life and gives me energy to keep going.
