Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 10 Aug 2017InterestsReizenFilms & TV SeriesArtHistoryGaming
I am from the USA and live in the Netherlands. I earned a Masters of Teaching in 2010 and started teaching English in 2015, which has allowed me to meet people from all over the world. Students describe me as supportive, responsive, and empathetic. When I'm not working, I enjoy playing Nintendo, embroidery, and reading. I even read 90 books last year!
I take my job seriously, but am also relaxed, so our classes will be both informative and low-stress. I want you to feel confident in your skills so you can improve more easily, which I do by making class welcoming, safe, and informative. My classes are for everyone, regardless of background and preferences.
* I can teach children ages 7 and up
* Babies and pets welcome during class
Each class is customized for you based on your interests and what you need to improve. We focus on grammar, vocabulary, and other skills. Classes allow you to speak and use the language effectively in realistic situations. I can give homework and we can discuss answers in our next class if you want. Basically, we do what works best for you.
* Lessons can be booked 1 month in advance
**If you cancel a lesson within 24 hours of class time or miss the class, it will not be refunded or rescheduled. By scheduling a lesson, you agree to pay for that time.*

The teacher uses Linguahouse materials along with Google Docs to provide students with reference documents for review. The teacher is very patient and never criticizes students, so the classes are not stressful or burdensome. Highly recommended!

I’ve been studying with Shelley for several months, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my progress.
From the first lesson, she created a warm, engaging atmosphere that made learning both effective and fun. Her clear explanations, thoughtful feedback, and patient encouragement boosted my confidence and fluency faster than I ever expected.
Shelley tailors every lesson to my needs—whether refining pronunciation, expanding vocabulary, or practicing real‑world conversation.
She arrives with varied materials and adapts instantly to focus on what I need most. Always punctual, professional, and genuinely invested in my success, Shelley assigns thoughtful homework, tracks my progress meticulously, and celebrates every milestone. I always leave our sessions motivated and eager to learn more.
If you’re looking for a dedicated, skilled, and inspiring English teacher, Shelley is your best choice. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone!
