With five years of dedicated online teaching experience under my belt, I have had the privilege of guiding students from around the globe on their English language journey. My academic background, a degree in English and Art History, combined with a TEFL Level 5 Certificate, has allowed me to offer a unique blend of language proficiency and cultural enrichment to my students.

Throughout my career, I have worked with students of all ages, from the youngest learners in Pre-K to seasoned adults. My versatile teaching approach allows me to adapt my methods to the specific needs and goals of each individual. No two students are the same, and recognizing this, I tailor my classes to suit their requirements, whether that's mastering grammar, excelling in exam preparation, honing academic writing skills, improving comprehension, or enhancing their oral communication abilities.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my teaching journey has been the long-term relationships I've built with my students. Many of them have been with me since the beginning of my teaching career, and watching them progress and develop their English skills over time has been immensely gratifying. It speaks to the trust and confidence they have in my teaching approach.

One of my core teaching objectives is to instill confidence in my students, particularly when it comes to daunting challenges like exam preparation and public speaking. I understand the anxiety and pressure that can accompany such tasks, and I'm committed to providing the guidance and support needed to help my students overcome these hurdles successfully.

My teaching philosophy revolves around fostering a nurturing and encouraging environment where students feel empowered to take risks, make mistakes, and learn from them. I firmly believe that creating a safe space for exploration and growth is essential for students to flourish in their English language journey.

As I continue on this path of teaching English as a Second Language, I remain dedicated to my students' success and look forward to embarking on new adventures in learning and language acquisition together. Your English journey is my passion, and I am here to guide you every step of the way.
