I truly believe that language learning opens so many doors and positively transforms your future.
When you learn languages, you not only develop your language and communication skills.
You also create a new, better personality of yourself and new opportunities. You discover many wonderful things about yourself and the world around you.
I offer Individual digital sessions of tutoring and language coaching for English and Spanish language learners.
I teach languages using elements of coaching for learning and educational purposes.
They are based on positive psychology and a guided discovery method.
If you are interested in trying the language learning with elements of coaching, You are most welcome to my Zoom room )
I successfully Integrated the GROW model into language tutoring.
The learners are encouraged to find their intrinsic motivation for learning.
I help raise awareness of their strengths and resources, based on previous successful experiences.
I inspire them to plan the next step forward in their ultimate long-term goals.
What drives me:
A profound passion for personal development and empowering others to achieve their goals and dreams.
Desire to promote a learning mindset, thirst for continuing growth, and positive transformation.
Authentic belief that there are always more opportunities than obstacles.
Desire to achieve extraordinary results and create a positive impact for humanity.

Member since:
16 Oct 2017Timezone:
America/Mexico_City LatviaWith me you are not learning just a language, you are exploring the world and culture of different countries while improving your English skills.
I help language learners to accelerate their learning process and improve their language skills by the methods that I use.
My learners love using an approach of Pareto method, which is 80/20 principle for:
80% of active speaking and only 20% of my explanation;
80% of useful vocabulary and only 20% of the vocabulary for passive knowledge;
80% of confidence vs 20% of doubts and corrections;
80% of guided discovery of the grammar rules vs 20% of my explanation;
80% of the topics and content you love, vs 20% of the theory.
The additional value you will get:
- the exploration of what really motivates you for language learning,
- the discovery of your resources, strengths, and skills, based on your previous positive experiences;
- developing your listening and speaking skills through watching interesting videos, and having exciting discussions with me;
- developing your skills of presentation;
- working on your critical thinking and evaluation skills;
As far as I have 20 years of business background, I provide business English training as well.
With my bachelor's degree in English Philology, I help students improve their academic English skills and prepare for exams, such as IELTS.
I use the elements of the GROW model (a coaching model) in my language teaching practice.
That helps my learners break their language barriers very quickly!
My learners get confident in their language learning skills and feel the power of their control over their language development.
This helps them make all the positive changes in their life they wish: travel more, change their job, move to another country, find new friends and communities, get to know new cultures, and see new opportinities.
I use the GROW model elements in my sessions.
Goal - the learner sets a goal for their session.
Reality - we explore what they already know and where they are in respect to the goal.
Options - the learner explores options of different activities and chooses what they want to do today to reach the objective.
The learner leads the sessions.
Way Forward - we work together towards the goal.
At the end of the session, the learner always reflects on what they have learned and what they are taking from this session with them.
Also, we always discuss what the learner has learned about themselves during the session as a learner.

Reviews about me:
My children really enjoyed the lesson, the speech was completely understandable and interesting. There were only positive emotions!
Главное в изучение любого языка – это интерес к языку и профессионализм преподавателя. Christina Baltach квалифицированный преподаватель, прекрасно владеет языком и навыками преподавания, умеет поддержать интерес к языку и показать его многообразие. Все занятия проходят в увлекательной дружеской обстановке, что несомненно, делает занятия интересными. Благодаря Christina моя дочь сформулировала цель для чего ей нужен английский язык и с каждым занятием улучшает уровень знания английского. Огромное спасибо за такой позитив у ребенка!
I was in winter meetup in Barcelona. I'm grateful to Christina for this opportunity. Full immersion in English. Lessons, activity, meetings are organized so that you communicate with new people all the time. So the experience of speaking is growing. I'm not afraid anymore to speak and make a mistake. For me this is the main achievement. I am grateful to you for all!
Нам с сыном неимоверно повезло, что по тропинке в изучении Испанского языка нас ведет такая замечательная учительница. Christina Baltach Спасибо огромное!
Мы с сыном (14 лет) в восторге от репетитора - Christina Baltach. Christina Baltach очень талантливый и квалифицированный преподователь. Профессионал!!! У нее есть дар объяснять очень интересно и доступно. Мы даже не предпологали, что online занятия окажутся такими комфортными, продуктивными и интересными. Время летит незаметно, уроки спланированы очень грамотно и проходят в дружелюбной приятной атмосфере. А самое главное - что я вижу результат и у себя, и у моего сына, и это очень воодушевляет. Нам с сыном нравится методика преподавания Christina Baltach, т.к. она дает живой разговорный язык, а также учит правильному произношению. Спасибо огромное Сhristina Baltach.
"MĪLESTĪBA” valodas apguvē! Jaunu zināšanu/valodu apguve ir labākais laiks ikviena dzīvē. Man jāsaka paldies Kristīnei, jo viņa man deva pārliecību, ka es savu mērķi varu sasniegt un valodas apguvei laika ierobežojuma nav. Ir grūti tikt galā ar kādu, kuram pazudusi pārliecība un ticība, ka viņš to var, bet Kristīnei tas ir izdevies, 3 mēnešu laikā ir jūtams progress 😊.Paldies!
Christina is wonderfull person, it is such a pleasure to be her student and learn english in a such a interesting and easy way. She is very charismatic and interesting person from who I can learn many other things, not just english ! So, time in lesson is very worthy to me in many ways: I improve my english, social skills, knowleadge in history, traveling , psychology etc. Thank You Christina !
Always positive and interesting lessons.
Lisa is very happy to learn with You 😊
I've been learning English with Christina, I think, for two months already. I enjoy our lessons and the way she teach, we have different interesting topics during our lessons. Also I found it very convenient and flexible to learn language online, you can have a lesson at any time you want, just need to choose a date and book it in the website.
I had many english tutors, but from the first lesson I realized - Christina differ than them (of course for the better)
Кристина преподает подростку, умеет удержать внимание, материал преподается в интересной манере, очень четко, структурировано, всё происходит на английском, при этом всё объясняется понятно и логично.
The best teacher of the world.
Ļoti jauka, erudīta pasniedzēja. Elastīgi pielāgojas katra spējām un prasībām. Ja vēlies sākt runāt angliski, iesaku Christina.
We are very pleased with Christina, very professional approach, meantime able to make my daughter interested (what is not so easy). We just started but hoping to make our cooperation long.
Tengo que decir que mi profesora Christina es una gran profesional. Tiene mucha paciencia y es muy didáctica a la hora de enseñar. He aprendido nuevo vocabulario y mejorado en mi forma de expresarme en inglés. Normalmente las clases particulares son aburridas, pero ellas las hace divertidas y que te quedes con ganas de más. Una pena no haberla descubierto antes! Sin duda, la recomiendo al 100% :)
Augsti profesionāls un cilvēciski brīnišķīgs pedagogs ir Christina! Katra mācību stunda ir intensīvi piepildīta un individuāli pielāgota studenta līmenim. Sarunvaloda, akadēmiskā angļu valoda, rakstu valoda, gramatika – tas viss caurvij katru stundu. Darbs tiek prasīts un nopietna attieksme pret mājas darbiem arī, taču tieši tas palīdz sasniegt vēlamo rezulātu. Lielisks balanss starp vieglumu, humoru un prasīgumu, bez tam, tēmas valodas apguvei tiek izvēlētas mūsdienīgi aktuālas un interesantas, kā rezultātā katru mūsu mācību stundu gaidu ar nepacietību.
Английским языком с преподавателем Кристиной занимается 15-летняя дочь. Урок проходит исключительно на английском языке, включая объяснение грамматических тем. Поначалу дочь сомневалась, хватит ли ее уровня знаний, чтобы полноценно понять грамматику на английском. Тем не менее, Кристине удается прекрасно донести даже непростые темы. Хочется отметить позитивную атмосферу во время урока. Дочери очень нравится заниматься. Через месяц занятий она почувствовала себя увереннее на уроках английского, через полтора стали заметны улучшения в оценках. Спасибо!
Trial lesson was excellent.
Excellent
Впервые решила использовать возможность изучения языка в режиме онлайн. Это оказалось очень удобно - действительно экономишь время, финансы, а так же есть возможность выбора преподавателя. Нам очень повезло, мы сразу же попали к Кристине и уже на первом пробном занятии, она задала такой высокий уровень преподавания английского языка, что остальные преподаватели, к сожалению, очень сильно не дотягивали. Кристина очень быстро нашла контакт с сыном, очень легко расположила к себе. Уроки проходят исключительно на английском языке и это совсем не создает напряженности. У Кристины великолепный английский - это важный критерий в изучении языка, интересная система обучения и очень профессиональный подход к делу. Сын занимается с большим удовольствием и желанием, что не может не радовать. Очень благодарна Кристине за высокий профессионализм, компетентность и отзывчивость.
I a very satisfied with Christina. She is a great teacher and has a perfect pronunciation.
Christine is NOT middling teacher of English language. She’s skilled specialist who is able to keep your attention during the whole lesson by easy going teaching. She is not only professional, but also clever, interesting and experienced person. It’s always great pleasure for me to have a lesson with Christine. I develop my English with Christine almost two months and I really feel the progress. We started with one hour per lesson, now I take one and a half, and the time just goes away. I always get from Christine an answer and detailed description if I have any question. We go through the cases step by step with deep explanation and examples. During the process I expand my vocabulary, correct grammar, develop speaking skills and feed my brain. I found my teacher for sure!
Christina is an excellent teacher, patient, imaginative, positive and working with individual approach, a lot of useful hints and focus on weak sides. Lessons are always different and interesting. Thank you Christina, you are a wonderful person!
Thanks for patience
I'm looking forward to every lesson with my favorite teacher! I'm very happy to be your student for 7 months already. All lessons take place in a fascinating friendly atmosphere, which without doubt, makes the classes very interesting. You always easily explains the new material. Christina, thank you for your professionalism, sharing your knowledge, passion for teaching people and THANK YOU for your always good mood and your smile! You are the most positive person I know! And it's so convenient to have lessons through skype!
Кристина высококвалифицированный, превосходный преподаватель с огромным опытом и обширными знаниями в области языка . Мне очень нравиться индивидуальный подход к занятиям и её стремление к совершенствованию. Ее уроки никогда не бывают скучными и похожими, в свои занятия она вкладывает всю свою душу и сердце. Кристина выстроила наши уроки с учетом моих сильных и слабых сторон, чем повысила их эффективность. Занятия проходят очень динамично, каждый раз по-разному, нет ощущения рутины. Кристина очень приятный, разносторонний и отзывчивый и человек и огромное ей спасибо за её увлеченность языком и тот вклад, который она сумелa вложить в мою жизнь. Я очень благодарна за полученные знания и навыки в изучении английского языка. Спасибо!
Today I had many new words and very interesting theme! The time just flow away!
Frequently Asked Questions
If a tutor cancels a lesson that has been confirmed before, you get the total amount paid for this lesson back to your online wallet balance. You can use this balance to book the next lessons on lonet.
To provide a short answer to this question, we would say as follows: Go to a tutor if: you want to study the language. You will learn grammar rules, and practice reading, writing, and listening skills. If you are a beginner or an elementary-level learner, choose a tutor. With a tutor, you will work on and improve your language skills. Go to a trainer if: you want to develop your speaking skills mainly. Choose a native trainer to train your accent, speaking skills, and conversational vocabulary, get cultural insights, and have nice targeted conversations in the language with a native speaker-trainer. Go to a language coach if: you are at the intermediate and upper-intermediate level of the language and want to develop your specific language skills. If you want to become a confident language speaker, fluent in a specific area, in a language for specific purposes, and break all the barriers you have in your language learning, choose a language coach.
Book a free consultation session with Kristine and tell her about your concerns. She is a creator of Lonet.Academy, a language learning expert, a polyglot, and a performance coach. She is happy to provide valuable advice and insights, according to your unique needs and personal situation.
In the case if you booked the lessons and the tutor has already confirmed them, you can cancel your lessons (by going to your pending lessons and pressing the button “cancel”), but in this case, you will get your money back to your balance (online wallet) with a deduction of 5 eur per each lesson canceled. You can still use the remaining balance to book your lessons with another tutor. To avoid this we recommend buying special deals with us, that provide you with a specific amount of money in your online wallet (with a more than paid value) and you can use this balance later when you are confident to book.
