InterestsScienceTechSports & Fitness

My name is Thabo, and I am a native English speaker from South Africa. I am a scientist by profession, and you might have already guessed that I love science and technology 👨🏿‍🔬. Besides scientific research, I enjoy meeting new people, learning new skills, sports and fitness (even though I'm not in shape at the moment 😂), music, as well as watching series and movies. My greatest strength is public speaking and I really enjoy expressing myself in front of an audience. I recently took an interest in learning how to code, and I have also been practising my cooking skills (although I've burned a few pots 🙈).

Me as a Teacher

I recently submitted my Master's thesis in Chemistry, and I also hold a bachelor's degree in chemistry and physics. I have a 120-hour Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certificate. With three years of experience as a junior lecturer in chemistry and an online English teacher, I have taught adults, teens and kids. Having worked as an editor and attended numerous academic conferences, I can improve different aspects of your language skills.

My lessons & teaching style

With my strong scientific background, I create well-structured classes that are well-researched and fun. With my support, you'll be able to reach your language goals without feeling overworked. In the first few sessions, we get to know each other by sharing our goals and life experiences. Then we can draft the best plan for achieving your language objectives. We then use role-play, books, audios, structured and unstructured free talk to help you improve your English.
