Short biography

I've been teaching English to ESL students for almost 5 years. I have worked for several reputable English schools including EF and Wall Street English. My main area of expertise is IELTS and TOEFL coaching. I have helped dozens of students reach their full potential and realise their dreams of working or studying abroad. I also have a lot of experience teaching children between 6-12. I have taught hundreds of children's classes. I create a positive learning environment for them through singing songs and playing games and learning grammar in fun ways. I really enjoy teaching adults practical English. I pride myself on being able to identify the weak areas of students' language ability and providing tutoring tailored to each student's individual needs, whether it's grammar, vocabulary building and word recall, confidence, pronunciation of just having stimulating conversations.
