Hello there! I'm Annie, hailing from the vibrant land of Jamaica, known for its reggae beats, warm sunshine, and pristine beaches. As a certified TEFL teacher with an extensive five-year teaching journey, my passion lies in assisting individuals like you in reaching their English language aspirations. Besides my TEFL certification, I hold a four-year bachelor's degree in business, providing a unique blend of language and practical business skills to enhance your professional communication.
Outside the classroom, I delve into the realms of creativity and cultural exploration. I'm an avid poet, with several of my works published, and I contribute my voice to a choir.Me as a Teacher
My goal is to help you speak English with confidence by improving your fluency. All classes are tailored to your specific needs, time, and interests. I use the communicative approach, which is based on the idea that learning a language successfully comes through having to communicate real meaning. Hence, classes focus primarily on conversational English. In this approach, the objective is to present a topic in context to the learner as naturally as possible, as this is a highly effective way to help the language acquisition process. However, a grammatical syllabus forms the foundation of all lessons I teach and builds a framework to help learners acquire the English language.My lessons & teaching style
Our first lesson will focus on your English goals and the creation of a specific plan to help you achieve those goals. All lessons are tailored to meet the needs of each student and are presented in a manner that allows you to feel comfortable, ask questions, and express yourself. The structure of my lessons and courses contains a functional syllabus alongside a focus on a grammatical syllabus, thus providing learners with communicatively useful expressions together with a structured syllabus with a clear sense of progression. Some lessons will have a conversational focus, where we will discuss various topics of your choice, or I can suggest fascinating topics.My teaching material
