Santhi Priya IB Certified Tamil & English Teacher | 13yrs Exp
No reviews yet

I am Santhi, a Tamil native speaker and IB certified educator with 13 years of experience in teaching and academic coaching across 30+ schools in India.

I have trained 250+ teachers and 90+ school leaders in structured, effective teaching methods, which means I do not just speak Tamil and English, I know exactly how to teach them. I understand where learners get stuck, how to explain concepts clearly, and how to build confidence fast.

I teach Tamil to:
- Diaspora children who want to reconnect with their roots
- Complete beginners starting from zero
- Non-Tamil speakers living in Tamil-speaking communities
- Adults who want to read, write and speak Tamil confidently

I teach English to:
- Students who want to build spoken fluency and confidence
- Working professionals who need business communication skills
- Anyone who wants to improve grammar, writing or academic English

What makes my lessons different:
- Every lesson is personalised around your specific goal and is not just a generic syllabus
- I track your progress and give clear feedback after every session
- You always leave each lesson knowing exactly what you learned and what comes next
- Structured homework keeps you improving between lessons

I hold an IB PYP certification from the IB Council and an Integrated Teacher Training Certification from People First Leadership Academy. I am also Jolly Phonics trained, which means I can teach Tamil and English reading to young children using proven phonics methods.

Whether you are a student, a working professional, or a parent looking for the right teacher for your child, I will make sure every lesson is purposeful, structured and worth your time.
