Hello👋
I’m Runatso, a passionate ESL tutor specializing in Conversational and Business English for teens and adults. With over 3 years of experience, I help learners speak confidently in everyday and professional settings. Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to polish your conversation skills, you’ve come to the right place!
Originally from Zimbabwe, I’ve lived in the UK, Zambia , and recently Türkiye. My multilingual journey (Shona native, French basics) fuels my love for connecting across cultures.
When not teaching, I co-run a family business, bake🎂, travel🌍, and make music🎶.
Let’s turn your English goals into fluent conversations!Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I’m known to be patient and understanding. I create a relaxed space where you’re encouraged to express yourself freely—without fear of making mistakes. In fact, mistakes are part of the learning process, and I’m here to guide you through them with support and encouragement.
My specialty is conversation practice, perfect for adults and teens who want to improve their speaking and listening skills for everyday life. We’ll focus on real English you can use in daily conversations—helping you sound more natural, fluent, and confident.
Let’s work together to make English feel comfortable and natural! My lessons & teaching style
I believe every student is unique, so my teaching methods differ per student's needs.
I offer 2 different types of lessons:
👉English conversation practice
Here we work on developing your conversational skills and we can speak about any topic of your choice.
However, in our conversations I will be focusing on your grammar, pronunciation and articulation so you can get the best out of our lesson times.🤝
👉General English
In this lesson we work on improving your reading, pronunciation and writing skills. 📚 We do this by reading through a variety of articles and then discussing about them . You are free to choose which articles we cover. Homework is usually given for writing practice.My teaching material

Ru老师会根据学生自身喜爱制定教学话题，并且非常耐心和详细地讲解用词和句式选择。跟Ru老师上课，我总能有机会谈天论地，聊社会的方方面面，并且表达自己的想法。上课体验非常有趣且有效。
Ru is an amazing speaking teacher! She designs teaching topics based on students' own interests. When explaining word choices and sentence patterns, she is extremely patient and detailed.
In her classes, I always get the chance to talk about all sorts of things - from daily life to social issues - and freely express my thoughts.
The lessons are not only super interesting but also really effective!
