I closely monitor my students' progress. As a language learner myself, I understand language acquisition can be an overwhelming goal, so I do it by setting little milestones.

Me as a Teacher
Although I've been speaking three languages since I was a child, I didn't realize how difficult it is to learn a language until I started learning Spanish as an adult. Learning a language as an adult made me a better teacher, someone who can truly understand my students' challenges and frustrations.
I'm always learning new ways to teach, tweaking my strategies to best meet the unique needs of each learner. I understand language acquisition is a life-long process, but I always make sure to make each lesson count.
My lessons & teaching style
The lessons I offer include but are not limited to:
- Conversation Practice
- IELTS (Speaking and Writing Parts)
- Interview Practice (Job, Visa, and University Admission)
- Writing
- Clear Speech Training
- Grammar
- Vocabulary Building
My teaching style depends on the learner's goal, level, learning style, and progress.
Language learning can be overwhelming, so I love setting milestones. Milestones help students realize how far they've come.
Apple consistently fosters a warm and inviting class atmosphere. Laughter fills our sessions, making an hour feel like a mere 20 minutes. Highly recommend.

Teacher’s pick
I'd like to say she is the best teacher in italki. I have had conversational classes with her since 2016, and my improvement in English has been a lot from her support. I hope she will be my teacher until finishing my journey of English.

I have been taking lessons with Apple since October last year and I have been seeing a lot of improvement. She is very smart, polite and kind as well. She always helps me with my pronunciation, accent, and also grammar. Every class we have interesting topics for us to discuss such as politics, personal experiences, education… The characteristics that I seek in a teacher, she has them. For this reason and many others I still and will be taking lessons with teacher Apple.

Apple and I have gone through a narration chronicle for more six months. It took a lot of time but Apple always encouraged me a lot. I really appreciate her patience.
