English Classes in Houston, TX

Certified professional English teacher (CELTA, B.A.-English) and native speaker I really enjoy getting to know my students—not only in terms of their linguistic needs and capacities, but also as human beings with interests and experiences vastly different from my own who have a lot to teach me about life and about the world. I welcome diverse viewpoints and I appreciate honesty and humility. Humility is extremely important when you’re learning, because learning involves making mistakes. I know this can be intimidating, so I will always try to create a safe and familiar space in which you can feel comfortable taking risks and trying new things in English, knowing that if you do make a mistake, I can help you turn it into an excellent learning opportunity.

Hello! I'm Jeremy, a native English speaker from America. I've lived in various states, but the states I've lived in the longest are New Jersey and Texas. I've also lived in The Philippines for a year. My hobbies include music, video games, anime, and technology. I also like to cook whenever I have the time. Currently, I'm living in Texas and pursuing a bachelor's degree in computer science. Nakakaintindi ako ng Tagalog pero hindi pa po ako magaling sa pagsasalita. Pasensiya na po! 数年間前に独学で日本語を勉強し始めました。言語力まだまだですが、少なくとも日常会話できます。今まで日本に２回行ったが事あります。次の機会を楽しみにしています！よろしくお願いします。 One of my main goals is to help others be more motivated to learn English, especially through personal interests and hobbies. I also love learning about new cultures while sharing my own. The way I teach will be purely conversational. I do not use textbooks when teaching, but you are more than welcome to bring your own! If you have any specific questions on things like grammar, I would be glad to answer them. I accept students of all levels. Having conversations as a beginner it may be difficult, but don't worry! I am here to slowly help you get used to speaking. It's more important to enjoy communicating rather than getting everything perfect.

Super Welcoming for Chinese Beginners 😊 Over the past years, I've taught Chinese and English to thousands of students. Teaching Chinese to an American CEO was my most memorable teaching experiences. He was a beginner to Chinese when we started, but now he can communicate effectively with Chinese companies without needing a translator. I also taught English to middle school students. They were very engaged and excited in my class because they always paid a lot attention to either win a game or complete a task. I really enjoy teaching because I can see my students improvements with my help. As a languege learner myself, I believe that having fun in the learning process is very important to keep the motivation up and up.

[ACCENT REDUCTION] Columbia University-trained English teacher who is fluent in Chinese I am not currently accepting children. 我目前不接受孩子。 Hello! I’m originally from Philadelphia, USA, but I currently live in New York. I hold a Master’s degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) and English Education from Columbia University. I’m passionate about languages and cultures, and I’ve had the opportunity to travel to many countries, meeting people from all over the world. In my free time, I enjoy lifting weights, running, yoga, meditation, hiking, and spending time in nature. I also enjoy reading non-fiction books. 你好！我来自美国费城，目前住在纽约。我在哥伦比亚大学获得了对外英语教学（TESOL）和英语教育的硕士学位。 我对语言和文化充满热情，也有机会去过许多国家旅行，结识来自世界各地的人。空闲时间里，我喜欢举重、跑步、瑜伽、冥想、徒步旅行，以及在大自然中度过时光。我也喜欢阅读非虚构类的书籍。 I’m very good at helping students with pronunciation and accent reduction, and I enjoy explaining the small details that make English more natural and precise.

Harry from NYC We learn best when we enjoy ourselves. If you're not enjoying the lesson, you're not going to learn the language no matter how fastidiously you study. I will work with you to make learning fun and engaging.

As mentioned, I believe having a native grasp in both English and Spanish is an advantage. It allows me to easily translate idiomatic concepts and expressions that don’t have literal equivalent from one language to the other. I can draw meaning from my native understanding of both languages (and my experience in using both in daily life) to find the right examples and the closest translations from the source to the target language. I studied linguistics and, even though it is generally not required for a language teacher to be trained in linguistics, there is a growing number of experts in the community who believe it's a huge plus. I've drawn countless knowledge from it to teach.

English Fluency & Pronunciation Coach | Native English Speaker & Opera Singer Hello! My name is Kinneret, and I am an American-Israeli opera singer based in New York City and Tel Aviv. I was born and raised in the United States and earned my Bachelor’s degree cum laude from Hunter College, where I studied languages, literature, and history. As both a professional singer and a lifelong language enthusiast, I specialize in helping adult students improve their English fluency, pronunciation, confidence, and communication skills for work, travel, presentations, public speaking, and everyday life. In addition to English and Hebrew, I have studied Italian, French, German, and Russian extensively. Having learned multiple languages myself, I understand the challenges students face with grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and sounding natural in conversation. My background as an opera singer gives me a unique advantage when teaching pronunciation. I can not only model sounds clearly, but also explain how to produce them through tongue, lip, and mouth placement. I also understand how different languages influence pronunciation and can help students overcome common difficulties. Every student learns differently, so I tailor lessons to each individual’s goals, learning style, and interests. Whether you’re looking to communicate more confidently at work, prepare for a presentation, improve your speaking skills, or simply feel more comfortable using English in daily life, I strive to make lessons both effective and enjoyable. I look forward to working with you!
