Hello! My name is Elsha. I am 24 years old and from South Africa.
I am fluent in both Afrikaans and English. Since April of 2025, I decided to become a full time tutor, across different language-learning platforms: I also do freelancing work. I am a quite, focused, and determined, but also, light-hearted and easy -going person. I have always had an interest in different cultures and languages, and it is my dream to one day visit different countries and be able to fully communicate with the native speakers of whatever country I am in.
Me as a Teacher
As 'n onderwyser, wil ek my kennis deel en behulpsaam wees, tot die beste van my vermoë, sodat my leerders gemaklik kan wees om 'n nuwe taal te leer.
Learning a new language can sometimes be challenging, but it's always worth it, and with the right teacher, it can be more than just a lesson. Dit kan 'n pretvolle ondervinding, waar jy nuwe mense kan ontmoet.
I will strive to make my lessons an experience for my learners that will encourage them to be bold and confident, in whatever language they choose to speak.
My lessons & teaching style
Lesse sal baie interaktief en gebaseer op student se belangstellings wees. These lessons will focus on teaching the student to no only be confident in what they are being taught, but to enjoy what they are learning as well. Dit sal basiese taal en sins konstruksie behels, en fokus op intreevlak Afrikaanse en Engelse kommunikasievaardighede. Communication skills can be taught through having everyday conversations, which can consist of any topic the learner would like to talk about. I will be able to help with basic reading and writing - basiese lees en skryf -, pronunciation - uitspraak -, and vocubulary - woordeskat-.

Great Lesson with, Elsha! We spent this time getting to know each other while throwing in some Afrikaans sentences into the mix. We brainstormed ideas to approach a more customized approach to practice the language. Thank you for your time, Elsha, dit was ń plesire !
