Hi there! My name is Allyah. I love listening to music and watching comedies and I also love doing volunteer work. I also very much enjoy traveling and exploring my wonderful island- Jamaica. I enjoy teaching online as I get to meet a variety of students from different cultures and watching them grow and confidently communicate in the English language. It’s a wonderful experience. I specialize in general English and everyday conversation practice. I am very warm, patient and calm with my students because I want them to excel and do their very best I’ve taught English for many years in person, in groups, one and one, and online. I work along with students at any level whether beginner, advanced or proficient. My lessons and teaching style are heavily dependent on my students' needs and desired level of fluency and proficiency as well as their style of learning. I work with my students at their pace and help and motivate them to achieve their goals.

After a couple of lessons with Allyah, my confidence in English has increased a lot. It is always a pleasure to talk with her about various topics. The lessons are always very useful and productive. She is an encouraging teacher. She gave me many suggestions, helped me to correct my words in pronunciation and to increase my vocabulary. My problem with tenses has also improved already. I am so happy to learn English with her.

A wonderful tutor! She makes herself available for me even though those hours aren't available, she'll put in time and effort to have a class with me so i can learn! we play games and discuss topics together, she helps me with my writing, grammar and vocabulary. She's a patient and kind tutor. Best experience i've had here on Italki!

It's always a pleasant experience to have a class with Allyah. She is always punctual and well prepared, can support a conversation in a fun and engaging way regardless of the topic. Always adjusts the classes to your needs and interests with a great professionalism that it never feels like a lesson but a friendly conversation with a close friend.
