Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 30 Apr 2025InterestsMedical & HealthcareReizenSportFilms & TV SeriesEnvironment & Nature
Certified TEFL teacher with 4+ years of experience across multiple platforms, specializing in conversational, business, and beginner English—especially for French speakers. Born in Scotland and based in Mauritius for nearly a decade, I blend cultural insights into dynamic, student-tailored lessons. Passionate about languages (fluent in French, learning Spanish!) and personal growth, I thrive on helping learners unlock confidence. When not teaching, you’ll find me in the gym, in nature, meditating, watching films or reading a book.Ik als leerkracht
I'm friendly, sensitive, empathetic and patient with a positive self-growth mindset. I believe myself to be a natural teacher because I love to uplift, inspire and encourage people. Helping others to accept and realise their own potential brings me so much joy. My first, informal, teaching experience occurred right after high school when I came to Mauritius as a volunteer for a year to work in a children's shelter where I taught English and piano classes. I hadn't even considered making a career out of teaching at that point but looking back I guess it was meant to be!Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I like to tailor my classes to my students' interests and needs. I have hundreds upon hundreds of different lesson plans across a wide variety of subjects and lesson types for each level (A1-C2). Grammar, reading, listening and speaking are the main focus of my classes with writing mainly being employed as a homework task. Some students simply want to practice speaking so I'm also happy to do more informal conversation type classes. Again, I have a lot of materials at my fingertips!Mijn lesmateriaal

It was my first experience with Italki, and almost my first time with English. The teacher made it easy for me to speak English at all times. It was very enjoyable and satisfying
