About Me
italki teacher since Nov 23, 2021
I am an advocate for learning and continue to challenge myself to learn beyond the academic space.
As a young person, I have an interest in critically analysing some of the challenges that we face in our polical sector, both locally and internationally. I am also intentional in debunking social behaviours and beliefs and encourage engaged conversations between people for solutions but also for mental stimulation.
Through it all, I remain open minded, liberal and respectful because I understand that everyone is shaped differently and is equally influenced differently as a result of their life experiences, the environment they live/grew up in, and the social values that one chooses in life.
Me as a Teacher
I have a TELF certificate and have formal experience in teaching English through a community engagement program at school. I taught a class of grade 6 learners in a public school and have seen how difficult it was for them to learn a language that was not a medium of communication for their academics.
I therefore encourage students to be patient with themselves, understand that it is okay to make mistakes, ask questions, and have a positive mindset in achieving set goals.
My priority as a teacher is also to create an environment that is conducive to a student's learning, therefore, the lessons will be structured to the interests and requests personally made by students.
My lessons & teaching style
I know and understand how difficult it can be to learn a new language, particularly in an environment that is not encouraging. I have self-taught two languages myself through conversations with native speakers and I strongly believe that this method is the reason I grasped the languages quicker.
It is from this experience that our classroom will adopt a conversation style of teaching so as to boost your confidence in learning the English language.
Effort is made for easier discussions for those starting out on the language and tools to assist in communication between tutor and student are used and encouraged.

I felt very comfortable with Karabelo. She gave me a lot confidence and made me feel very comfortable discussing the subjects. I will come back to have lessons with her again
