IELTS Speaking Coach with over 5 years of teaching experience My goal as a teacher is for you to feel comfortable speaking English and Filipino. I specialise in accent reduction and pronunciation, and I always adjust my speaking speed to my student's level *For no shows* : If you would not show up or if you're late, I would give you a grace period/make up class or I would extend the time (for you) since you have 2-3 days to confirm the lesson on iTalki- no need to reschedule the lesson. If you would not attend the make up class then the lesson would be considered as paid

Teacher with a perfect English accent and three years online teaching experience. Hello! My name is Rose and I am from England. I have recently been travelling the world as a digital nomad, which means I work online from my laptop while exploring different countries. I am an English teacher, which I love, and also a novelist. I write fantasy novels inspired by different cultures and locations around the world. I really enjoy teaching English because I get to meet people from all walks of life. Over the past three years of teaching online, many of my students have become regulars, and I now consider them friends. I have been teaching English online for several years and have also taught and trained staff in multinational hotels in countries such as Kenya and China. It’s something I truly enjoy. Many of my students simply want to practise conversation, while others prefer more structured lessons. I’m happy to tailor each class to you, whether that’s a relaxed chat or focused work on verb tenses, prepositions, corporate English, IELTS preparation, or reading comprehension. It’s your class, so it’s your choice. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable and leave each lesson with something valuable. My classes are relaxed and enjoyable, like chatting with a friend, while still professional and focused. I teach practical English for everyday use. I adapt each lesson to suit your learning style and needs.

Learn Serbian & English Naturally with an Experienced Teacher Through Conversation & Culture Do you want to speak Serbian naturally, reconnect with your Serbian roots, or feel more confident communicating in English? I’m here to help you use Serbian or English in a way that feels natural, practical, and relevant to your everyday life. Hello! I’m Marija, a native Serbian speaker, English teacher, and writer with a Master’s degree in English Language and Literature and 10 years of experience teaching students online. I teach both Serbian and English, and I believe lessons work best when they are built around the learner — your level, goals, interests, and what you actually want to be able to do with the language. For Serbian, we can explore everyday language, travel, natural expressions, idioms, and the cultural nuances that textbooks often miss. For English, we can work on conversation, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, fluency, or simply becoming a more confident speaker. I’m also happy to work with your materials. If you have a text, presentation, speech, or pronunciation problem you’d like to practice, feel free to send it to me before the lesson so I can prepare. Whether you’re a complete beginner or already speak some Serbian or English, we’ll take things at a comfortable pace and focus on what you actually want to achieve. Let’s make language learning practical, interesting, and something you genuinely enjoy.

Here to help you really learn English | Yma i'ch helpu chi i ddysgu Cymraeg Hi! I'm Einir, from the UK. I’ve been teaching English for over 20 years and recently decided to start teaching my other native language -Welsh - using the skills I’ve learnt through my ESL career to help people learn one of Europe’s oldest languages! I’ve helped hundreds of people from all walks of life to become confident English speakers - housewives who want to help their children with homework, top managers who need English for international business, school pupils who dream of studying at a prestigious Western university, family-oriented people who want to start a new, better life abroad, recent graduates who want to be more competitive on the job market, adventure seekers who want to be able to make new friends while travelling - people just like you, who were brave enough to take the first steps towards reaching their goals by committing to their studies! I was an oral examiner for Cambridge exams for 15 years so I am in a rare position to help students prepare for international exams with my inside knowledge of the system. I also teach general English to students of all levels. My lessons are always prepared with the student's specific needs in mind, but a typical general English/Welsh lesson is based on introducing a grammar or lexical point and using it in conversation. I'm a strong believer in the communicative approach to language learning and expect my students to speak as much as possible in class.

Be a more confident English speaker this year! Come talk to me! Just like chatting with a friend! I started tutoring adults who have dyslexia. I have been trained in the Barton System that teaches phonetics and helps students learn to read. It takes lots of patience, but I really enjoyed helping them learn. I started tutoring English to non-native speakers about 2 years ago. When the pandemic came to the U.S. in March 2020, I couldn't see my students face to face anymore and that made me very sad. Then I discovered iTalki, so now I help students with their conversation skills online! It's great!

Teaching English accurately and fluently for 18 years Hello! My name is Naomi. I hold a bachelor's degree in literature and have been teaching English to different nationalities since 2007. I'm also TEFL/TESOL certified. Since my students’ English levels vary, I make sure that my lessons cater to their proficiency. I can teach grammar, vocabulary, news article reading and discussion, IELTS speaking and writing, pronunciation, and punctuation. If you’re aiming to practice speaking, I’m also capable of holding conversations about a variety of topics. Moreover, I believe repetition and reviews are essential to ensure my students’ comprehension and help keep track of their progress, so they can expect effective learning. Likewise, I expect my students to express and never doubt themselves. Last, I always encourage them to ask for clarification, and I give them suggestions for improvement. Learning English or any other language isn't a walk in the park, so I'm rooting for you. If you'd like your journey to English fluency to start right now, I'm available for a trial lesson. Hope to see you soon!

    Learning English

    When I first met my teacher, I could barely speak English, had almost no confidence, and wasn’t at the level I needed to apply to university. Today, after more than 70 lessons and a lot of practice, I finally applied for a degree at the International School, and a huge part of that journey is thanks to her. It starts with the lessons, the patience, the confidence she gives you, and the fact that the learning plan is adjusted to your goals. She is the most professional teacher I have ever had, with challenging, interesting lessons that have improved my English dramatically. But what makes her special is the feeling that she genuinely wants you to succeed, believes in you, and pushes you to become the best version of yourself. The support, materials, and effort continue even after the lesson ends. I would recommend her to anyone who truly wants to improve their English, gain confidence, and learn with a teacher who really cares. Book a lesson as soon as possible, you won’t regret it.

    I want to share my wonderful learning experience with Kylan. First of all, Kylan is extremely experienced in IELTS preparation. He can quickly pinpoint my weak areas and provides practical techniques and effective strategies to help me improve. Second, what I appreciate most is his inclusive and encouraging teaching style. Like many Chinese students, I used to be a typical "silent English" learner. With Kylan's patient guidance and encouragement, creating a safe space where mistakes are just part of the process. Third, Kylan is genuinely dedicated and responsible. He assigns targeted practice after every class and always gives timely, detailed feedback with clear points for improvement. Last but not least, his charismatic, humorous and easygoing, which makes for a relaxed and pleasant learning atmosphere. If you're looking for a teacher who combines real expertise with a genuinely fun learning experience, I highly recommend Kylan. Learning English with him is truly enjoyable!

What I appreciate most is her structured approach: she created a tailored plan to help me achieve both my fluency and examination goals. She consistently provides highly useful materials and practical tips, which is crucial for me as an exam candidate. Cynthia is always well-prepared, incredibly patient, and encouraging. She manages to strike the perfect balance in her lessons – the atmosphere is light and comfortable, yet productive and serious. During our speaking practice, she provides valuable feedback and corrections without ever interrupting my flow. I am incredibly glad to have found Cynthia. Thank you for your dedication and care! With your continued help, I am sure I will leave the language barrier far behind. Highly recommended!

    I've really enjoyed working with Ellie. I first started taking lessons with her to prepare for an important presentation in English, and she helped me gain much more confidence than I expected. She is always well prepared, encouraging, and genuinely interested in the topics we discuss. I especially appreciate that she creates a relaxed atmosphere where speaking English feels natural and mistakes are simply part of the learning process. Her feedback is clear, practical, and always helpful, and her pronunciation coaching has made a real difference for me.

She also assigns weekly homework to reinforce what we have learned. Talking with her is really pleasant. She is energetic throughout the whole lesson and gives me plenty of time to express myself.
