Dominika
Lewis & Clark Alum - Spanish, Russian, and Polish tutor
Hello! A little about me: I am passionate about teaching second languages because I believe it is great for brain development, maintaining memory, and expanding world-views. As well as teaching in small group settings, I enjoy one-on-one tutoring sessions especially since I believe personalized tutoring is the most effective and often most enjoyable way to learn a language! I enjoy using games and videos to make learning seem more like fun than work. I am originally from Massachusetts, but... Read more
