I make learning as fun as possible for my students. I never give up on students who have a hard time understanding concepts, instead they help me find better easier ways to help them grasp the required knowledge.
My classes are interactive hence better results. I will teach you and expect you to teach me too so as to ensure you have fully understood.
classes can be one on one or group classes. I use videos that you will watch in your own time then we discuss the content and I teach you in person/(on hangout, skype, zoom etc). I give CATS and also oral exams.
Happy student ..happy teacher.

Experience

  • Online English Tutor (May, 2019–Present) at Freelancer
    I adapt my teaching style to suit learners of all ages, using high-energy, gamified activities for kids and structured, goal-oriented lessons for adults.

    I design personalized lesson plans that range from foundational phonics and storytelling for children to advanced professional communication for adults.

    I coach adult students in Business English and exam preparation while helping younger learners build academic confidence and vocabulary.

    I specialize in accent instruction, helping children develop natural-sounding pronunciation through phonetics and assisting adults in accent reduction to improve clarity in professional settings.

    I conduct regular assessments to track progress, providing age-appropriate feedback and detailed reports for adult learners or parents.

    I leverage various digital tools and interactive platforms to keep children engaged and ensure adult sessions are efficient and professional.

    I facilitate conversational practice that ranges from casual play-based learning for kids to nuanced, industry-specific discussions for professionals.

    I manage a diverse schedule across multiple time zones, maintaining a high standard of instruction for both corporate and young learner environments.
