Hello, my Name is Thirzah. I am an ESL confidence builder for kids, teens and adults.
I teach my students how to be confident using their English with improvements to meet their individual learning goals.
I am a qualified British native ESL teacher, from London, with over 7 years formal teaching experience. Therefore, I believe in giving my students homework, speech coaching and support with test preparation, presentations and functional language. As well as helping them with conversational skills for traveling and other fun cultural experiences.
I have been teaching other subjects, coaching and training others to achieve their goals for over 12 years. I love to travel, read and animals.
Me as a Teacher
I teach kids, teens and adults from Elementary school level to advanced using structured curriculums individually tailored to each students needs. The minimum age for my students is 5 years old with an elementary school level of English. My guess is you’re reading this because you know you need something more than you’ve tried before. I will give you confidence and the improvements to your English that you want. We can use a variety of engaging materials and a lesson frequency that suits your situation. Teens and adults should complete my placement test so that I can see their strengths and weaknesses. This enables me to plan effective lessons using appropriate materials.
My lessons & teaching style
Firstly I provide teens and adults with a placement test. Then I use structured curriculums and fun engaging materials based on each students’ levels, needs and goals including fluency of speech, test preparation, business communication skills for presentations, negotiations, writing emails, letters, CV/ resume and job applications etc. A lot of my students enjoy learning new vocabulary or idioms and want to improve both their pronunciation and spoken grammar. I can give supporting self study materials, homework every lesson and feedback when needed. We can combine different skills and materials to keep lessons fun and effective or focus on one skill. Whatever you need to do, I can help you.

Having lessons with Thirzah is helping me become more and more confident with the use of English in business situations. She's always professional and considerate. She's able to share interesting material, find the right connections with everyday contexts and be fun as well. Always at ease during lesson time!
