TEFL certified with 10+ years experience and creator of English Hacks (YouTube) IMPORTANT NOTE TO NEW STUDENTS: 1) PRONUNCIATION ONLY! 2) I have come out as transgender (male to female). If you don't want to work with me because of this, then good luck with another teacher. Hi! I'm a TEFL professionally certified English teacher and the host of the YouTube channel "English Hacks". I have 10+ years of experience and have given thousands of one-on-one lessons! I currently only teach accent reduction, which is my specialty, helping B2-C2 level students to sound more American. I specialize in American pronunciation training and accent reduction, as well as language mentoring (learning how to learn a language in the way that works best for you). Please note that I do not teach beginners, children, or business English. I currently ONLY teach pronunciation/mouth posture. I am really good at connecting things, and this helps me to teach you better. I definitely understand how scary speaking can be and I am very patient, so you can relax and feel comfortable with me. My philosophy is to be a guide and mentor who is very focused on your needs and interests and who can give you the tools and information that you need in order to succeed as an English speaker. Because of this, I don't have a specific, rigid type of lesson that is too focused on grammar like traditional classes. Instead, I work with you to create the type of lessons and learning plan that best suit you.

Another great lesson as always. I can notice how much my accent has improved since I started about five months ago.

Today Kat and I had our 10th lesson about American mouth posture. We studied the activities and coordination of the different parts used in American mouth posture, and how Americans actually use those parts together when speaking — not just how to move the lips, teeth, tongue, or placement individually. It is very difficult and sometimes strange, but also very interesting. I will continue studying and practicing with Kat until I truly master mouth posture. Besides that, the most important thing that motivates me to keep going consistently and not become lazy is Kat’s personality. Kat always checks and corrects my homework very carefully and patiently, making sure I can really do it and understand it well. She gives many examples that help me understand the positions and movements of all the parts involved in mouth posture. She never rushes to leave or stops helping when I still don’t understand something, and that means a lot to me.

Today I had Lesson 8 with Kat. She gave me many helpful techniques for moving my jaw and feeling the different parts and pieces of American mouth posture. The more I study it, the more fascinated and passionate I become about American mouth posture and pronunciation. I’ll continue studying with Kat and keep practicing until I sound more like a native American speaker. I know some people wonder why I want to sound American. Yes, that’s true — some people only want to speak English fluently or reduce their accent a little, and they don’t care about sounding like a native speaker. But for me, I genuinely enjoy studying and practicing mouth posture. The most important thing is also Kat’s personality. She is very patient, passionate, supportive, and dedicated to helping her students improve, and that motivates me even more to keep practicing and learning. I'm very grateful for your help, Kat.

Today was my 9th lesson with Kat. She has taught me many tricks and tips for American mouth posture and has given me a lot of helpful advice on how to speak English more naturally. Kat is very patient and passionate about helping me, even though my English is still not fluent. She checks my homework very carefully, gives me many different exercises and a lot of extra practice to help me improve, and makes sure I understand everything well without skipping anything. I highly recommend Kat to anyone looking for an English teacher. I’m very grateful for all of your help and support, Kat. You always motivate me to keep improving, and I truly enjoy studying with you. I’m looking forward to continuing my English journey with you long-term.

Today I studied Lesson 7 with Kat. She taught me more about the different pieces of mouth posture, and day by day I’m becoming more interested in it and enjoying my lessons with her even more. Kat is very knowledgeable about the way Americans actually speak. Many pronunciation teachers focus mainly on mouth positions for the 44 English sounds, breathing, placement, rhythm, intonation, and reduction, but they still miss an important piece: mouth posture. If you really want to study and practice American pronunciation more deeply and work toward sounding more natural in an American accent, I truly recommend learning with Kat. Her teaching has helped me notice many things that I never understood before. I know I’ve already given many positive reviews about Kat, her teaching style, and her personality, but over time I appreciate her even more. Thank you so much, Kat!
