Background
Hello Champions, my name is Sipha and I am a native English community tutor from South Africa. I have completed a 120-hour Tesol Certificate and I am a Civil Engineering graduate from Nelson Mandela University in the Beautiful Eastern Cape.
I am passionate, determined, optimistic and goal driven. Some of my interests involve travel, adventure, culture, music and hiking.
Me as a Teacher
I am patient, friendly, talkative and open-minded. I specialize in conversational English and I create a teaching environment that enables my students to engage in casual day-to-day conversation where I can introduce new vocabulary and assist with pronunciation and English grammar. I am also open to engaging in topics that my clients find interesting or common interests, alternatively we can also read out scripts, poems, articles or books.
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching approach is student centered approach that focuses on the individual needs, goals and interests of my students in order to reap realistic and effective results. I will provide customized teaching material and homework when necessary. I am also open to assisting with homework, essay writing, test and interview preparation.

Teacher’s pick
I have done 10 lessons with Sipha and I booked another 10. That said, Sipha is a very engaging and methodical teacher who adapts the lessons to the level of the student. I was very anxious in the first classes but with her support I no longer feel anxious when I need to communicate in English. Keep up the good work Sipha, no doubt, I will continually have classes with you!
