FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My price on Thumbtack is for one person per hour. However, I do offer competitive discounts for groups and families. At times, I am also open to trading for other services.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to model my teaching according to the need of the student. I generally try to have a general conversation with them before starting the course as that gives me an idea of who they are and how they learn best. Whenever it is profitable, I like to go at the speed of the student. I say "whenever it is profitable" because sometimes a student may want to go faster than they are able to learn. I try to be organic and go with the flow.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been teaching for a long time. I am also a qualified medical interpreter between English and French. I also interpret in Hebrew. For references on my linguistic skill, contact Linguava at Linguava.com. I do not have a teaching degree per se, but I have had 40 years of experience teaching starting with my own 6 children. I lived in India where I taught the deaf. I still teach the deaf here in the States. I believe that that my extensive travels and experience teaching children of all ages sand culture ahs given an unparalleled education in the matter.
