About Me
italki teacher since Nov 19, 2019
InterestsTravelEnvironment & NatureHistoryFoodScience
From the English countryside to the Spanish Metropole now embracing South Africa’s wild savana, I bring a global perspective to teaching. A CELTA-certified English teacher with a PhD in Sociology and 25+ years teaching experience, I specialise in English for all ages, general, academic and professional English—enabling overall skills development. My life is lively: guarding fruit trees from baboons, admiring sunsets with my family and dogs, and staying curious about the world. But my true joy? Learning from others and enabling others to shine, whether for educational, professional or academic purposes. Let’s turn hurdles into stepping stones—with practise, refinement and a touch of fun!

Enjoyable and instructive first lesson with Annie with a clear structure and plan . I have already learnt things/nuances which I was not aware of. Looking forward.

The tutor provided clear guidance on pronunciation, intonation, and stress patterns in my spoken English presentation. She offered practical advice on managing long sentences (breathing and pausing techniques) and corrected key vocabulary errors. The session was well-structured, and the post-class materials (focusing on common pronunciation challenges) were a helpful supplement.
