Native-English Speaker and Conversational Specialist w/ 15+ Years of Travel & Language Experience Hello and welcome! I'm Hannah 🌿 Originally from Connecticut, USA, I have lived in Argentina, Peru, Italy, Spain, Albania, and now Stockholm, Sweden! I hold a degree in International Studies and Community Action & Social Change from the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor), and I'm currently completing my MSc in International and Comparative Education at Stockholm University. My passions include transformative education, consciousness, herbalism, art, and music — I'm a singer-songwriter and lifelong lover of language. I've been teaching English for 10+ years across wildly different contexts: with Buddhist nuns in the Himalayas, adult immigrants in Michigan, and young children at an outdoor forest school in Peru. My students have ranged from 3 to 60 years old! What I care about most is helping you feel safe enough to actually speak without fear of judgment, without self-consciousness, so that you can find your voice in English. My classes are conversational, fluid, and fully personalized. We talk about whatever lights you up: your interests, life experiences, your perspectives on the world. Think of it less like a "lesson" and more like coffee with a curious and compassionate friend who just-so happens to be your teacher :) If your goal is to speak English with genuine confidence and express yourself naturally: you're in exactly the right place. Please send me a message if you have any further questions, and I hope to see you soon!✨

If you're here reading reviews to figure out whether she's the right teacher for you, you can stop now: Hannah is definitely the one you're looking for. She has a natural ability to make you feel comfortable in any situation, and she adapts perfectly to your needs, your English level, and your personal learning style. I've tried several English teachers in my life, and they all tend to force their own model, method, or even ideas on you, which makes learning English feel rigid or even frustrating. Only Hannah was able to guide me so naturally through the learning process that, without even realizing it, I found myself completely able to understand and speak English with confidence. What are you still doing here? Go book your lesson with Hannah now — you won’t regret it, I promise.

Hannah is an exemplary educator who combines technical knowledge with humane and creative approach. She inspires her students to achieve their goals with confidence and enthunsiasm. Those who have the opportunity to learn from her will certainly gain not only language skills, but also a greater appreciation for the culture and nuances of the english language. Definitely I very recommend taking classes with Hannah if you want to improve your english with a great teacher.
