About Me
italki teacher since Oct 4, 2021InterestsHistoryTechWritingGaming
Hello! I’m a certified TEFL teacher from England with a degree in English and Creative Writing, now sharing my passion for language in Australia by teaching adult women and children of all ages. Over six years, I’ve helped students from toddlers to adults master English—from first alphabet lessons to confident storytelling and exam success.
When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me crafting stories, crocheting quirky creations, or tinkering with game design. My multicultural experiences (living in Hong Kong, South Korea) inspire me to make learning vibrant and tailored to your goals. Let’s turn language learning into an adventure!Me as a Teacher
Please note I am only accepting students who are either: adult women or children (both boys and girls).
I have been teaching English for the past six years in Hong Kong, South Korea and online, teaching children as young as three and adults. Some of my younger students have gone from learning their alphabet, to reading, and on-wards to writing full sentences. I have prepared students for school interviews in Hong Kong and for Trinity (oral) exams, PTE, FCE, IELTS and TOEFL (please keep in mind I am not officially trained for this).
I am enthusiastic and encourage my students to do their best in a fun environment! My lessons & teaching style
I have a flexible teaching style where it is exceedingly important to understand the student's needs. I teach in English to create a fully immersive environment, especially for children.
Below are some of the lessons I offer:
Kids course: from as young as 3 to as old as 15. Focus on any aspect of their English, including exam preparation (as required).
If you cannot see the kids lesson when booking for your child, please book under English Basics.
English Basics: the basics with visual aids.
Conversational: for intermediate and advanced adult learners to improve speaking skills.
Acting + Speeches: for adults to improve pronunciation and presentation skills.My teaching material

Contract - English Excel - 2019This is the first page of my contract with English Excel. If you require more, I can scan the back page of the contract. I can also send you my extension contract for 2020. At English Excel, I was working with children between the ages of 3 to 15. I taught children how to read, write and speak in English and helped them to improve their skills in these areas and in listening too.
