Hello! My name is Leisha. I am a professional online English teacher from South Africa with over 15 years of teaching experience. I am a native English speaker and TEFL certified. I taught English in China for 8 years at university level and have been teaching online for the past 7 years.
When I'm not in the classroom, you can find me gardening, cooking or taking my dogs for walks along the beach.Me as a Teacher
I have a total of over 15 years experience in teaching English as a foreign language and am TEFL qualified.

From 2018, I have been teaching students from around the world online. I am a very patient and approachable teacher.

Leisha, a fantastic teacher!!! She has a very interesting and insightful approach to teaching.
With her help, my speaking has improved a lot, especially in grammar and pronunciation. In my latest ielts exam, my speaking score improved from 5.5/6 to 6.5!!! 🥳
In addition, she is a very friendly and lovely teacher, and it is always a pleasure to chat with her, and she often encourages me so that I can feel more confident in my speaking.
I really enjoy leisha's classes! 🥰🥰🥰
