Helloš
Iām 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 youāre a complete beginner or looking to polish your conversation skills, youāve come to the right place!
Originally from Zimbabwe, Iāve 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, bakeš, travelš, and make musicš¶.
Letās turn your English goals into fluent conversations!

Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, Iām known to be patient and understanding. I create a relaxed space where youāre encouraged to express yourself freelyāwithout fear of making mistakes. In fact, mistakes are part of the learning process, and Iām 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. Weāll focus on real English you can use in daily conversationsāhelping you sound more natural, fluent, and confident.
Letās 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:
šEnglish 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.š¤
šGeneral English
In this lesson we work on improving your reading, pronunciation and writing skills. š 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.
