      Fully certified English teacher from Ireland with 5 years of experience teaching children and adults I am happy to work with individuals or small groups, children or adults. I am happy to discuss your learning goals so that I can deliver an English lesson that caters to your needs.

      I am passionate about adapting my teaching style to meet the needs of my students.

      Why choose Gretta H.
      "Gretta is a wonderful person! Our lessons were mainly conversational. Thanks to my conversation with Gretta, I was able to constantly improve my new vocabulary and persistently practice my pronunciation. It should be mentioned here that Gretta is a very patient and calm teacher. For me personally, it was important that the teacher had an Irish background because I live in Ireland and thanks to Gretta I could learn new idioms and sayings used in Ireland. If you are shy and afraid to talk, I highly recommend Gretta as a teacher with whom you can talk very easily and without embarrassment."

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I skill up on English in Cork and what are the possibilities in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with recorded courses, you have four main choices for learning English interactively in Cork. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, read about centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are less pricey.) Your other option can be local for-profit language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, not-for-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can find a private English tutor in Cork. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Cork and online English tutors.

    🎟 Is it cheap to learn English and what are the ballpark lesson costs for English tutors?

    For university and college courses you can estimate English course cost by dividing annual tuition by ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of about 50 class hours each semester. Language schools and private English tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the most budget-friendly English tutors can be found online, with prices on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor geography, availability and student demand. Average reviews for English lessons on Preply is 4.9 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What level of English do I need to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared pass a few pre-requisites. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework level and tests, so research those in advance. With personal English tutors you can find out in advance for whom the tutor is effective with and which other extras they make available (like classes for students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English so challenging and are there ways to learn it the easy way?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn English. In reality, you can gain basic English fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand everyday sentences, have simple conversations, socialize in about a year. Offline interaction is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a quick and fun way of acquiring the basic knowledge of English. After attaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have English tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced learners.

    🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of English?

    Some people brag about their natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in English will take at least 600 hours of dedication. The amount of time can differ significantly depending on your existing level of English or knowledge of other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is advised to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, try typing using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in English out loud. If you're struggling when starting a discusssion you can also take conversational English classes online.

    🤳 How many possibilities do I choose among when I select the right English instructor?

    In learning centers, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from the ones who already work there). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of pre-screened English tutors with detailed profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

    Colleges offer classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools as a rule offer shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can choose your own lesson frequency and time, on weekdays and/or weekends.
