Learning is a process that never stops. As educators, our job is to facilitate learning as a guide. My philosophy as a teacher is to help guide students toward success and ensure they take full advantage of their unique skills and abilities. In a classroom, students learn best when they are relaxed, enjoying themselves, and engaging with meaningful and thoughtfully provided material based on their learning needs. Students will target goals while assessing weak areas, including grammar, pronunciation, writing, reading, and listening skills, and most importantly, while having fun in an engaging environment!

College Professor and Professional Debater. Certified to Teach Languages. I enjoy conversation-based lessons, aka, I'm a certified yapper, but I also deeply value structure, grammar, and vocabulary building. I like to integrate both approaches by talking about interesting topics and, through practice, reviewing grammar and vocabulary in a more intentional way. That way, learning feels natural but still purposeful. That said, if you prefer a more structured and traditional class, I’m totally happy to do that too. Depending on your needs, we can work through exercises and readings from well-known institutional books.

I prioritize my students' language goals and tailor my teaching approach accordingly. I believe that making mistakes is a crucial part of the learning process, and I'm happy to provide repetition as needed.

CELTA-certified teacher and IELTS trainer (IDP) with 15 years of experience My passion lies in IELTS/exam preparation, and I enjoy the unique challenges that language learning brings. Over the years, I have worked with a wide range of learners, including students aiming for higher scores for university admission or emigration, those who need to pass the exam quickly, as well as anyone looking to improve their overall English skills. How we’ll work: 1. IELTS Strategy: We’ll work on understanding how the exam is assessed, what separates a Band 6 response from a Band 7+ one, and which common mistakes lower scores even for strong English speakers. Success in IELTS is not only about your level of English, but also about understanding exactly what the exam requires and how the scoring criteria work. 2. Structured English Practice: Lessons are built around developing specific skills rather than simply having general conversation. Depending on your goals, we may work with coursebooks, news articles, videos, or other authentic materials to improve grammar, vocabulary, fluency, accuracy, and overall confidence in English. 3. Collaborative Lessons: I use your preferred video platform together with shared Google Docs for real-time work, organised notes, corrections, and clear progress tracking. If you’re curious about how English works and want lessons that make grammar and language skills straightforward, I’m here to help!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the TOEIC exam, and what does it measure?

The TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication) is a standardized test designed to assess the English language proficiency of non-native English speakers, especially in a professional or workplace context. The TOEIC exam measures a test taker’s ability to understand and use English in a business or work-related environment. It assesses listening and reading skills, which are critical for effective communication in international business settings.
TOEIC scores are not typically used for immigration purposes. These scores are primarily used for employment and educational purposes.

How is the TOEIC exam structured?

The TOEIC exam consists of two main sections: Listening Comprehension and Reading Comprehension. Each section is further divided into parts, and the total test duration is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes. The Listening Comprehension section includes tasks related to conversations, talks, discussions, and conversations with a question-and-answer format. Test takers listen to audio recordings and respond to questions assessing their understanding of spoken English.
The Reading Comprehension section involves reading various texts, such as articles, advertisements, and workplace-related documents. Test takers answer questions that assess their understanding of written English.

How is the TOEIC exam scored?

The TOEIC exam is scored on a scale of 10 to 990 points. Each section (Listening and Reading) is scored separately, and the total score is the sum of the two section scores. The score report also provides a separate indication of performance in each section. The TOEIC exam does not have a passing or failing score. The score assesses proficiency levels, and institutions or employers set their own score requirements. The good scores on the TOEIC exam vary depending on the context and purpose. Generally, a score above 700 is considered proficient, while scores above 900 indicate advanced proficiency.
TOEIC scores are typically valid for two years from the test date. After this period, the scores expire. There is no limit to how many times you can take the TOEIC exam. However, checking with test centers for availability and scheduling details is advisable so you don’t miss out on a chance.

Are there any specific strategies to excel in the TOEIC exam?

Successfully navigating the TOEIC exam requires a combination of language skills and effective test-taking strategies. Before listening to the audio, quickly read through the questions. This helps you focus on specific information while listening. Utilize the provided scratch paper to jot down key points, numbers, and keywords during the listening passages. This can assist in answering questions accurately. Train yourself to listen actively. Focus on the main ideas, details, and speaker attitudes. Regular listening practice in English can enhance your comprehension skills. Pay attention to how words are pronounced and the intonation used by speakers. This can provide additional clues about the meaning or emphasis of a sentence.
Quickly skim through the text to understand the main topic, headings, and structure before delving into the questions. Identify and underline keywords in the questions. Look for these keywords in the text to locate the relevant information. Read the passages carefully. Note how the information is organized and know the relationships between sentences. Allocate a specific amount of time to each set of questions. Avoid spending too much time on a single question, as this could impact your ability to complete the entire section.
Work on expanding your vocabulary to express ideas more precisely during the speaking tasks. Take a few seconds to organize your thoughts before responding to a question. This helps in delivering a coherent and well-structured answer.

How can I prepare for the TOEIC exam?

Various preparation materials include official TOEIC preparation books, practice tests, and online resources. Some test takers also choose to enroll in TOEIC preparation courses. TOEIC preparation courses provide a detailed understanding of the test format, structure, and types of questions that will be encountered in each section of the exam. This familiarity helps reduce anxiety and boosts confidence.
Qualified instructors in TOEIC preparation courses provide expert guidance on language proficiency, test-taking strategies, and best practices. They offer valuable insights into what examiners look for in responses.
