What are my lessons like?

My lessons are friendly, supportive and tailored to each student’s level and goals. I teach English to learners who are new to the language, including complete beginners.

I have experience teaching ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) to Afghan women, which has given me experience helping learners build confidence in English in a comfortable and encouraging environment.

Lessons can include:

- Speaking and everyday conversations
* Reading and understanding simple English
* Writing and forming sentences
* Vocabulary and pronunciation
* Basic grammar explained in a simple way
* Practical English for everyday situations, such as shopping, appointments, travelling and communicating with others

I adapt each lesson to the student’s individual needs and learning pace. For beginners, I focus on building a strong foundation step-by-step rather than overwhelming you with too much information at once.

My goal is not only to help you learn English, but also to help you feel comfortable and confident using it in everyday life. Whether you want to learn basic English from scratch, improve your speaking, or become more confident communicating with others, I will support you throughout your learning journey.
