Hi my name is Sarah- Jane.
I live in Cape Town, South Africa. I am a qualified Early Childhood Development teacher and completed my TEFL course in 2009 at the South African Language Academy. I am an experienced teacher that teachers adults, children and teenagers.
I love running, cooking and learning new things and I have a passion for helping others.
I am a very kind and patient teacher. I love teaching others new things and seeing my students grow from strength to strength in their English journey!
My lessons and teaching styles are always taught in a very relaxed teaching environment.
I believe in a lot of repetition of grammar and using visual objects or experiences for teaching. Its also important to take a key interest in my student and to focus on what it is that they would like to achieve and get them to that goal. Some of these goals I have helped students with is speech coaching, homework tutoring, travel and culture, test preparation as well as conversation practice.
When it comes to teaching children and teens I believe that fun learning is the best way of learning :-)My teaching material

I enjoy classes with Sarah every time. She proposes new exercises and stimulates vocabulary and grammar in a simple, fun but above all effective way!
