If you want to increase your English vocabulary and fluency and you already know a little bit of English, I can help you!
I will help you to feel very comfortable and we will have a relaxed and fun lesson where you can increase your English skills and become more confident to speak better English.
I am a patient and friendly person and love meeting people from all over the world. I am looking forward to helping you with your goals to speak better English.
My home is in South Africa but I have also lived, studied and worked in Canada, The USA, Australia and England.
Start your italki adventure today! I look forward to meeting you. 😊Che tipo di insegnante sono
I am a TEFL/TESOL qualified native English speaker from South Africa and I have taught English Second-language students in many different countries like Poland, China, Italy, France, Korea, Germany and others. I have also taught in my own country.
If you know some English and want to improve or maintain your level, please send me a message to tell me what you need help with. Then book a trial lesson so that we can work together and see if we are a good match.
I like to keep things simple and teach one thing at a time until the student is very certain and confident, then teach something new. That way, we build upon knowledge, confidence and certainty; and the student will not get confused. Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
My lessons are relaxed and I am very patient. I like to keep the lessons interesting and fun. We use a lot of real examples of things to help with increasing vocabulary. We can role-play and practise conversations or different scenarios like job interviews or just speaking English in social life, business or travel.
I have a Bachelor's in Economics, studied linguistics and am TESOL and TEFL certified. I teach via conversation. I’ve taken basic courses in Zulu, French & German and I speak Afrikaans as a 2nd language in my own country. So, I know what it feels like to learn a new language!
I will help you to learn English in a natural, relaxed way. I am looking forward to meeting you!Il mio materiale didattico

I‘ve been learning English with Terry for one year now. In the beginning it was difficult to find the right vocabulary and expressions from my thoughts. Terry always created a positive learning atmosphere in which my speaking blocks were overcome. Her calm and warm manner gave me more confidence to speak. Terry tailored each lesson to my needs and I felt welcome. She is a professional teacher, she explains the grammar and helps me with my pronunciation. And I enjoy the fact that you can laugh with her. The lessons are a gift for me. I always look forward to our next lesson. I think it is important to know that she is very reliable and her technology works well.

Last lesson of the year, it's the first time I practiced twice a day with Terry. I feel I caught some new pronunciations we saw previously, even if I'm not yet sure about them. I always have a nice time with Terry who is totally immersed in the story of The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall. I recommend it to everyone who wants to read in English. Happy new year to all of you!

Terry is a fantastic teacher who guides me through my English reports with endless patience every time, and I never feel stupid. That's important. It's very inspiring because she asks me what I know, or knows that I know.
