TEFL/TESOL Certified | Ex-Corporate Manager | English and Filipino Tutor I am TESOL/TEFL certified and have been teaching online since March 2016. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication Arts (Major in Mass Communication) and bring extensive real-world experience to our lessons. Before teaching, I spent nearly 13 years in corporate customer service, working in front-line management, recruitment, and corporate training. I communicated with native English speakers daily. With me, you don't just get textbook theory—you get insights from someone who has actively hired, managed, and trained professionals globally. Outside of teaching, I genuinely love life, discovering new places, and meeting new people. I bring that positive, high-energy curiosity into every single lesson. My Teaching Philosophy: Real Immersion Immersion is the key to fluency. If you aren't in an environment where you can naturally experience the language, I will create that environment for you. I adapt completely to your learning style, goals, and pace. What to expect: Baseline Assessment: In our first lesson, I assess your skill level so we can instantly co-create a tailored lesson plan. Continuous Feedback: After every session, you receive concrete feedback and a comprehensive summary. Independent Growth Tools: I provide practical activities you can use to keep improving your communication skills on your own. Let’s unlock your full potential and get to work. Book a trial session, and I'll talk to you soon!

Certified TEFL and IELTS (Speaking) teacher with over 5 years of teaching experience My name is Nalini, and I'm from New Delhi, India. I speak English with an American accent as we lived there when I was very young, and I learned to speak English there as a child. I now live in Italy, speak B1 Level Italian and B2 level Spanish. I have been a volunteer for English-Spanish language exchanges for the last 6 years, and have been learning Italian for 3 years. This has helped me to understand and adjust to different learning styles and needs of different students. We will go at your pace, and make sure you are comfortable during class. It is absolutely alright to make mistakes, I will help you with those and any doubts you have, and I will also encourage and motivate you a lot. I am patient and open-minded, we can talk about any topic you like, and the conversations will be interesting and light. Conversation is one of the best ways to begin "thinking directly" in English, and it removes the process of translating everything you want to say, and understand. We can have a relaxed conversation, you can ask questions, and use pictures, music or articles too. I want to help make things easier on your journey to your English goals. My focus is to help build confidence and fluency in English and help with your individual needs. The class will be personalized to your level and requirements. *If you don't see a convenient time slot, please send me a message and I will try to figure it out for you **Please note: I do not take lessons for children

    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.
