Hi, I am Teacher Mary. I started teaching English five years ago, and I love meeting people from around the world. I am a very helpful, bubbly and kind teacher. I teach students who are seeking to relocate, go on holiday or even learn the language for leisure. I enjoy listening and helping students achieve their goals. I am a native English and Swahili Speaker.
I love reading fashion magazines, swimming, fishing, cooking and travelling. I love interacting with others and learning about different cultures. I plan all my students lessons before the class and I will discuss them with my student to make possible edits and agree on the lessonMe as a Teacher
I have been working as a private English tutor for the past five years. Throughout this journey, I’ve learned that every student has unique needs, learning styles, and challenges. I truly enjoy sharing knowledge and helping my students grow in confidence—whether in speaking, reading, or writing English. It’s incredibly fulfilling to see them improve and become more comfortable expressing themselves. I take great delight in explaining ideas in clear, relatable ways that make learning easier and more enjoyable for my studentsMy lessons & teaching style
I would describe my teaching style as kind, fun, and patient. My goal as a teacher is to understand each student’s goals and tailor the lessons to suit their individual needs and concerns. I focus on helping students build confidence and fluency, especially in pronunciation, grammar, engineering terminology, and conversational skills. I believe in creating a relaxed and supportive learning environment. I don’t typically assign homework or follow rigid lesson plans, as I prefer to keep sessions flexible and responsive to the student’s immediate needs.My teaching material

Mary is a very patient, kind, and encouraging teacher. She has a fun energy and works very well to help me pick up material. She gives songs to listen to and she works at my pace. Phenomenal teacher, could not recommend her enough! (:
