🚀 Advance your English journey 🚀
As a highly qualified language educator with a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Applied Modern Languages and a Trinity College CertTESOL, I specialize in working with motivated and driven students who are eager to accelerate their language learning journey. I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every lesson, providing students with the tools and techniques they need to rapidly improve their fluency, confidence, and overall performance.
But aside from experience and qualifications, I believe that I have cultivated cultural sensitivity and awareness.
** I also prepare students for the IELTS Speaking exam, to get the score they desire! **Me as a Teacher
In my classroom, students experience a relaxed and supportive environment that empowers them to take risks and make mistakes without fear. I encourage and guide my students to speak up as much as possible, providing timely feedback and introducing new vocabulary words in the chat to boost their skills.
Why focus on speaking skills? Speaking is the ultimate workout for language learners, activating all aspects of grammar, punctuation, and vocabulary at once to help you become a more effective communicator.
If you're struggling to break through the "intermediate trap" and achieve fluency, I'm here to help. The secret? Curiosity. Find a topic you're very passionate about.My lessons & teaching style
The Conversation Practice session is a speaking session based on spontaneous topics and informal conversations. I will help you reformulate your sentences to make them sound more natural and ask you many questions relevant to the topic, increasing the chance of recycling vocabulary.
In my Grammar & Vocabulary class I use various material from course books (English File Series, National Geographic Outcomes Series, grammar books (English Grammar in Use - Raymond Murphy) and I have also created my own Google Slides to explain grammar points and verb tenses.
As a teacher I am patient, kind and caring.
I always prefer to use AUTHENTIC material: Blogs, images, song lyrics, videos, poetry, etcMy teaching material

One of the best teachers I've ever had!
If not the best.
knowledgeable in every way.
The ability to teach any type of class from pronunciation to simplifying very complex topics is amazing.
The accuracy of the answers to the questions still amazes me. Not to mention other attributes such as being a friendly, patient and punctual person.
