A consummate lover of languages, Amanda first heard another language listening to German opera with her father as a little girl. This was followed by French in school and then Spanish. May’s love for languages blossomed in University where she studied latin as a minor, winning multiple awards and scholarships for her accomplishments. After graduating from college, Amanda moved to Prague to where she became a tefl (teaching English as a foreign language) certified teacher in 2008 and then taught there happily for three years, even learning Czech on the side too until she fell in love with the city of Vienna and one of its residents. ;-) Once arrived, she attended German school there. She is now fluent in German :-) She has a couple more languages to go before she reaches her desired goal and loves to pick up languages wherever she goes.
Amanda is positive enthusiastic, warm and engaging in the classroom and has worked with students of all ages and levels. She has taught students (especially those from Central Europe and Asia) around the world both inside the classroom and online. She is grateful for her musical ear and her ability to pick up on accents and to help others improve their pronunciation. She is a popular and sought after teacher wherever she goes. She cannot wait to meet you.
