Do you want to learn a new language this fall? Help me to help you learn Spanish, Italian, Latin or French đ
Been meaning to finally pick up that language but summer is getting away from you?
I'm a licensed languages teacher and I've been teaching since 2017. My mother tongue is Spanish and I'm a self-taught English speaker, with advanced proficiency in Italian and French, mostly self-taught after having lived in these countries. Besides, due to my #specialinterests, I know Latin as well, which I studied for 5 years and I keep reading and translating to this day.
My lessons:
22⏠/ hour (25$ at the time of posting) for 1-1 lessons. 15⏠/ hour (17$ at the time of posting) for group lessons (max. 4 students)
Teaching hours â (GMT+2) 9 AM - 8 PM Monday to Saturday / 3 AM â 2 PM (GMT-4) / 8 AM â 7 PM (GMT+1) / 4 PM â 3 AM (GMT+9)
Why choose me?
đ Besides having experience teaching, I tailor my lessons to whatever my students are interested in. Conversation-only, vacation-focused classes, reading, reviewing points from your irl lessons, official exam certificates...
đ I currently have a full roster of happy, satisfied students, but I have room for a few more and honestly, I need the work. I've been unemployed for 4 years and live on my mother's small widow's pension. I complement the hours I spend job-seeking with my lessons so I can save up and become independent. Booking with me genuinely helps.
đ I've been in your situation too: I've learnt these languages myself, so I know what's actually difficult and what you can skip, which means I'll know what you'll struggle with before you do.
đ I have a BA in Romance languages and literature and a M.Ed., on top of real teaching experience, and I've lived in Italy, France and Spain (my home country).
đ I don't have a website up yet, but if you'd like more credibility before booking, just ask and I'll happily send over my CV or my students' contact.
đ Free trial lesson to see if my teaching style works for you!
đ Platforms: Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or Discord (camera optional).
DM and/or fill out this questionnaire if you're interested.
Hello, thank you for filling this form. If you think I should add another question, let me know @quercucinus.
If you use an e-reader and want to immerse yourself in the classics of literature that are in the public domain, I highly recommend doing so via Standard E-Books
https://standardebooks.org/
Unlike the free e-books you may have downloaded from Amazon or other marketplaces that are full of formatting errors and typos, these are meticulously corrected and use all the proper typographical marks.
just learned the director duo that won best director at cannes were a couple for 13 years that separated like. at the end of last year. imagine breaking up with ur partner AND creative partner of well over a decade and now 6 months later ur at cannes celebrating ur biggest career achievement. together. and ur both called javier.
Me: "Damn people are REALLY BAD at knowing when to tag their eyestrain art/images...either that or they just don't care about photosenitive epileptic people like me. I feel really sad now."
Person: "But Allison, what if they just don't know or understand what qualifies as eyestrain and what doesn't?"
Me: "You know what? That could be a factor...While it is always better to be safe rather than sorry (so YES people should always tag eyestrain even if they're unsure if it "counts" or not) maybe you've got a point?"
Anyways! HERE'S YOUR HANDY GUIDE TO WHAT CAN COUNT AS EYESTRAIN! I'm pulling this straight from the Artfight rules page about what needs to be labeled and filtered as eyestrain because it's VERY helpful and VERY accurate! I also know not everybody has an AF account and might not always have access to this handy guide, and this is an important resource; That's why I'm sharing it here! (under the cut)
PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!! THIS IS ABOUT THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OTHERS!!!
Full eyestrain AF page link
"But Allison! How were you able to screenshot that example if you're so sensitive to eyestrain?"
I dimmed the HELL out of my computer screen and looked away while taking the screenshot and did the same when putting it into this post, that's how lol. BUT YEAH ANYWAYS!!! Once again:
PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!! THIS IS ABOUT THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OTHERS!!!
i do think there should be more stories and shows and stuff about guys falling in love with butch women actually, i think thatâd be a good thing. and not âthis is as butch as twitter can handleâ, i mean butch as can fucking be without apology, and making those boys weak in the knees about it. i think itâs great actually to have f/m romances that exist to break gender norms, too. i think it sucks that the only mainstream het romances that exist are either about women who are already feminine or with women who are just a little too scarily masculine and have to be fixed into being girlier. thatâs shit.
itâs not like. taking away from queer people if you let âthe straightsâ have some genderfuckery in their romance, too. thatâs good, actually, the blurring of gender roles and performance and getting better understandings of your own sexuality is good for everyone. and itâs really fucking weird if you think that mainstream âhetâ romances shouldnât feature women who are âtoo masculineâ because thatâs only allowed for queer people, somehow.
he's the best... and worst thing all at once. | i couldn't get it out of my mind. your words, your violence. | i hate everything about you and the way you live your life. but that doesn't stop me wanting every bit of it! | you need to see what life is like without his light blinding your eyes.
