Hi my name is Brends and I am a native English speaker from South Africa. I have experience teaching Conversation practice, Job interview practice, Business English, Academic English, IELTS, Writing, Reading, Vocabulary as well as Pronunciation. I’m learning French and I understand how difficult it can be. For me the most important thing is that we understand each other. I will create a safe space for you to learn and to become confident when speaking.

Brends is a good teacher. She speaks slowly, repeats and reformulates if necessary. Today's lesson was a little difficult for me, but it's good. It's challenging me, it pushes me to progress, and that's what I’m looking for in taking lessons.

Brenda is the best English teacher I ever had (and I had a lot of them). Patiently accompanied by her, and thanks to her great pedagogy, I was able to reach my goal : feeling at ease in any kind of English conversations. Her way of teaching is precise, lively and well structured. As a psychotherapist graduated from University, I can assert that Brenda has an inner sense of psychology and human relationship. So she perfectly knows how to attune herself to her student. I do recommend her to everyone who really needs to improve his/her English

Today, Brends and I had an amazing conversation class! The topic was 'fear'. I had the opportunity to learn a lot of new vocabulary and expressions related to the topic. Overall, it was a fun and productive class

Thank you very much for the lessons! I can feel progress with every session, and it’s incredibly rewarding. The way you explain things makes it not only easy to understand but also enjoyable. Thanks again for all your support!
