Hello!

I am a very passionate teacher and I would love to relay my love of the English language on to my students. I have a degree in English Literature and language and I also have a 120hr TEFL certificate. I just graduated from Varsity College and I am now a fully qualified in-classroom teacher as well. I have been working as an online tutor since 2018 and I have enjoyed every minute of it thus far. Because of my degree and my experience, I can help you with reading and analyzing a text, writing, pronunciation and vocabulary..

Hello and welcome to learning more about me! I have been studying English from a young age. I am a native speaker, it is true, but even though I can speak the language, learning the art behind the language has been a passion of mine. I live in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. It's a small coastal city where I am able to enjoy nature and beautiful beaches. I love cooking, watching YouTube videos and social media. I enjoy traveling and making friends around the world. Thank you for reading about me.

Teaching Style

My teaching style is to be very fun and energetic. I use TPR with beginners and intermediate students and enjoy teaching English through conversations and materials that the students want to study. My classes are very dynamic and if you have trouble with pronunciation, for example, I will be more than happy to help you. Because of my English Literature degree, I can also assist with reading, vocabulary and writing. I also have experience in teaching business English During a class with me we can discuss a wide range of topics together: art, music, a little history, current events, makeup, social media...you name it! We can even study some materials together of your choosing. I am a very flexible teacher and I adapt to my students' needs.
