About Me
Hi! I'm an English teacher and language coach with over 10 years of experience helping adults become more confident and fluent in English. I'm CELTA-certified and specialize in Business English, conversational English, and personalized lessons. Over the years, I've worked with students from different professional backgrounds, helping them prepare for interviews, communicate more naturally at work, and feel comfortable speaking English in everyday situations. My approach is practical, interactive, and adapted to you. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all lessons. Instead, I focus on understanding your goals, identifying what's holding you back, and finding the most effective way to help you progress. I also have an academic background in journalism and communication, so I love discussing everything from culture and travel to technology, media, and current events. Whether you want to improve your English for work, prepare for a specific challenge, or simply enjoy speaking more confidently, I'd be happy to help!
About My Lessons
My classes are all about helping you use English confidently in real life, not just memorize grammar rules and vocabulary lists. Every lesson is tailored to your level, goals, and interests. Whether you're learning English for work, preparing for an interview, or simply want to feel more comfortable speaking, we'll focus on what matters most to you. I use a mix of conversation, practical exercises, authentic materials, and targeted feedback. We'll work on your vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and fluency, but always in context, so you can actually use what you've learned. I also believe that making mistakes is an essential part of learning. My classes are friendly and relaxed, but structured and goal-oriented. I'll help you identify recurring mistakes, understand what's slowing your progress, and work on those areas together. What can you expect? - Plenty of speaking practice and natural conversations - Lessons adapted to your interests and professional needs - Clear explanations and constructive feedback - Useful vocabulary and expressions you can start using immediately - A personalized approach that evolves as you improve My goal is simple: to help you become a more independent, confident English speaker, one lesson at a time.
