Specialties

  • Conversational English

    I encourage my students to engage in natural conversations, role-play and discussions to build speaking and listening skills. I teach vocabulary including common phrases and expressions used in everyday conversations. I get my students to practice correct pronunciation, rhythm and pitch; Grammar is important so I teach these in common situations, so they are easier to understand and use. I like to use images & videos which provide interest and lead to good conversations. This helps my learners to share their ideas and to become confident and fluent in their use of English

  • Business English

    My extensive business background includes office administration, Sales and Marketing, and teaching various Microsoft Desktop applications for many years. My love of English has been greatly enhanced due to my business background and teaching experience.

  • IELTS

    I've assisted many students to work through the format of studying for their IELTS certification and to achieve high scores

  • English for work

    Teaching vocabulary, phrases and grammar used in business settings, such as meetings, presentations and negotiating. This assists with general work and professional communication such as writing emails, reports. This is streamlined for the specific industry my student works in. I cover essential skills like networking, interviewing and collaborating and the all-important topic of time management and teamwork. This all helps to equip learners with the language skills and confidence to effectively communicate and advance in their careers

  • English for beginners

    I assess learners' levels and needs and create a supportive learning environment. Basic vocabulary and phrases, such as greeting and introduced are covered and grammar eg verb tenses, sentence structure, prepositions etc. Visual aids like flash cards and multimedia resources are used to assist with understanding. Lots of practice of speaking, reading and writing skills, and detailed feedback to encourage development of these skills

  • English for kids

    I teach kids from as young as 5 years old using fun and interactive activities, including songs and videos and many colorful images and flashcards. This includes the alphabet, sounds, basic pronunciation rules, numbers and counting. They are also taught basic grammar and using this in everyday topics like family, food, colors, and basic conversation. I make the lesson fun and encourage a lot of noise and action to keep them busy and interested

  • English for traveling

    I teach phrases which are essential for travel, like greetings, introductions and basic questions such as "Where is...", "How much is...?" . Topics like transportation and accommodation - hotels, food and drink and shopping; asking for directions and understanding signs and announcements. A very important part of teaching about travel includes cultural awareness and customs in different countries. Role play is a great method which makes learning about travel very practical
