London language studio

Alena Sunavska is fluent in six European language with an understanding of a further four. She works as a professional language tutor and linguist. She teaches Czech, Slovak, Italian, Spanish, English and Greek. We have conducted a short interview with her. When did you start advising people on how to learn languages to a fluent level? When I first started to teach in the United Kingdom I realised, to my horror, why so many English students struggle with languages. They DID NOT learn English grammar in school. How is this even possible? How can such subject be called ENGLISH? I knew that if I don’t start to address this fundamental issue there is very little chance my students will achieve fluency. And this is how I work towards fluency; I explain how languages work straight from the first lesson and I make sure my students understand at all times, what and why they are doing or why there are learning certain things. What is your motivation in learning and tutoring pe...

Sienná - interview

Image
Sienná is a music artist living permanently in Norway, but originally from Kyoto, Japan. We have conducted a short interview with him: Why did you move from Kyoto to Norway permanently? I´m still here in Norway after so many years, although it was really not meant to be permanent. I moved to Norway as a university student. My musical mentor and a great Norwegian artist, Abòn, has helped me out to kickstart my music career after I completed the master's degree in cultural science. That was how it was. My father has always told me that I needed to establish a solid livelihood besides anything else, which is quite understandable. So, I made a long detour to be where I am today as an artist, but I think that things happen as they should, and that I was probably not able to make my music without the detour or all the experiences in life so far. So all in all, I am a very happy person right now. What inspires you in the kind of music you are creating? My inspirations come ...

How did you finally choose this dance genre/specialisation?  It started as an after school thing once a week with one of my best friends, we wanted to do something and there was a little dance school everyone went to in our neighborhood so we began hip hop classes there. As soon as I star...

Kareem Maize is a 26 year old musician and information technology professional with a passion for learning new aspects of life everyday. He lives in Latrobe in Pennsylvania. Which is the key life event that has shape your personal philosophy? I found a spiritual teacher who helped me realize I could choose how I wanted this life to be for me ! - sorry if number was a bit vague. What is your belief in life? Anything is possible with the right belief system. Your dominant beliefs create your reality. Once you become aware of this you can change your own reality. What is your opinion about time and patience, can one do without the other? Time is our most valuable resource that we have so we should live life to the fullest and take as many risks as possible. Time can do without patience because I believe good things come to those who go out and make their dreams a reality. How do you coach when someone is in deep emotional problems? Help them to establish a...
