Anna Phelps

My lessons are friendly, relaxed and focused on helping each student feel comfortable and confident when using English. I understand that everyone learns differently, so I adapt my teaching style depending on the student’s level, age and individual goals.

I have experience teaching and supporting others through different situations. For the past 5 years, I have helped my mother improve her English and become fluent, which has taught me to be patient, encouraging and clear when explaining things. I have also worked with children through sports activities, where I have developed strong communication, leadership and teamwork skills.

In my online lessons, I would start by getting to know the student and understanding what they want to improve. Lessons could include conversation practice, pronunciation, vocabulary, reading, writing, grammar and general English skills. I like to make lessons interactive rather than simply talking at the student, using questions, discussions, examples and activities to keep them involved.

I am a very friendly and approachable person and I am confident communicating with people of different ages and abilities. I will always encourage students to ask questions and make mistakes without feeling embarrassed, as I believe mistakes are an important part of learning.

My aim is to make every lesson enjoyable, useful and personalised, while helping students gradually become more confident and fluent in English.
