ENGLISH SPEAKING COACH Hi! I’m a native English speaker from South Africa with a passion for helping students become confident English speakers. My travels to many countries have given me a unique global perspective, and I love connecting with people from all backgrounds. I’m a music lover, movie fan, and sports enthusiast who enjoys lively conversations about current events. When I’m not teaching, I’m spending time outdoors with my family and our dog. If you want to improve your English speaking skills and enjoy engaging conversations, I’d love to meet you! I have a teaching degree with many years of experience in the classroom and online. I've taught English to first and second language learners of all ages. I also write (English) educational materials for teachers and learners in the primary school and I have a lot of experience in preparing learners for tests and exams. I have a TEFL/TESL certificate and an Online Teaching certificate. I believe students learn best when they feel relaxed and confident. I look forward to being part of your language learning journey. I use interesting topics, pronunciation drills and language videos to deal with your specific goals. I aim to meet you where you are and guide you to where you want to be. I am patient and very encouraging - I believe it is important to be proud of every language step, no matter how small it may be. In my class every step counts - I would like to make those steps possible for you! Let's get started!
