BC认证雅思培训师 IELTS/雅思 Simon - Intro - IELTS - HSK - Business - Conversational courses I have taught over 10,000 lessons on italki, and I am skilled in teaching both kids and adults. Under my approach, many of my students have achieved fluency, and excellent scores in standardized tests like IELTS and HSK. I have also researched and self-created contents for over 500+ daily scenarios, each dialogue is specially designed, so grammar structures are taught naturally through the dialogues, to ensure easy understanding. These topics pretty much cover every possible scenario in life, so you can be sure that you would reach a near native level of vocabulary after learning them. ➡️ Test preparation (IELTS / HSK / TOEFL): Practice on Speaking, Writing, Listening and Reading questions, with feedback and correction, as well as strategies and tips to improve. ➡️ For role-play simulation: We will role play common scenarios after learning sentence structures and vocabulary of a certain topic (Renting an apartment, Job interviews, Traveling etc) ➡️Topic-based sentence-builder practice: (sports, movies, fashion, relationships, arts, culinary, politics, environmental issues, technologies etc)

Practice is the key to success! Hello! I'm Jessica Rebekah, originally from South Africa and now living in New Zealand since 2011. I love teaching, and have been teaching on italki since 2018. I specialize in helping students build confidence in real-life English - whether you’re preparing for travel, work, IELTS, or simply want to communicate better in everyday situations. It makes me happy to see people improving their English! I have also taught myself Hebrew so I can completely understand what it is like to learn a foreign language. It has taken a lot of dedication and time, but I have experienced a lot of joy and satisfaction in my language learning journey, and that is how it should be. Learning English should be enjoyable. There may be days when you might feel discouraged or unmotivated, but that should never stop you from achieving your dream. Important to note - I teach my students with respect and courtesy and appreciate it when they treat me the same. I believe in teaching you to expand your vocabulary and communicate appropriately in English so please no swearing or dirty words. Based on what is best for each of my students I use a variety of teaching methods, materials, and personal experience. Every person learns differently and is gifted in their own unique ways so whether you are a fast or slow learner if you're determined, you will learn! I'm patient and understanding with my students.

    I find my lessons with Annette extremely useful for practising the speaking component of the OET. We manage to complete two scenarios in half an hour, and I can see that I am gradually improving over time. I really enjoy working with her, and I appreciate that she often extends the lesson by a few minutes to allow us to finish reviewing the corrections or to ask me whether I need any further advice on how to improve my OET performance.

    Under Naphan’s guidance, I learned how to speak English in a relaxed way—no rush, no pressure, no particular goal. Just chatting, going wherever the conversation takes us, and talking about whatever comes to mind. And suddenly, I realized I could speak more than I ever thought I could. I’ve come to understand that my problem was never really my mouth. It was my mindset. The more relaxed I am, the more naturally the words flow. Sometimes, the less you try to achieve, the more you gain. Thank you Naphan.

    I started Business English lessons with Joanna in October through the “Let’s Talk Corporate” programme, and the course has been tailored to my job from the very first session. She took the time to understand my daily work as a database engineer in the utilities sector, then built a twelve unit course around real topics such as metering applications, Oracle PL/SQL, billing logic and system architecture. Every lesson comes with conversation cards featuring realistic role plays between colleagues, with key grammar structures highlighted in context, vocabulary lists translated into Italian and useful professional phrases. A checklist of phrases to use during each session keeps the practice focused and measurable. Joanna is receptive, encouraging and always open to feedback, adapting the lessons whenever I suggest improvements. I would highly recommend her to any professional looking for Business English that is truly relevant to their work.
