InterestsITScienceWritingMarketingReading
I help professionals in tech, science, and marketing master English to accelerate careers and confidence. With 20+ years teaching immigrants, I specialize in practical language skills for workplace success—from presentations to networking.
As a linguist and published author, I also love guiding writers and storytellers to polish their voice. Whether you’re preparing for a job interview or drafting a blog, let’s turn language into your superpower.
*Note: My lessons blend conversation with real-world scenarios—because fluency isn’t just grammar, it’s connection.*
Ik als leerkracht
I have a university degree in Linguistics, with a specialty in Second Language Acquisition, and a minor in Spanish. As a teacher, I believe that speaking (and making mistakes!) is the best way to make progress in learning a language. After all, talking with people in English is the goal, right?
For some people, speaking might not be the main goal, and if that's you, send me a message and tell me what your goals are, and I will create an approach based on your goals.
For students 12 and under, please contact me BEFORE scheduling the first lesson.
If you cancel a class with less than 24 hours notice, you still need to pay. You are preventing another student from using that time.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
It's important to talk, and it's okay to make mistakes. The more mistakes you make, the faster you will learn! Our lessons will be conversation based most of the time, even when we are focusing on certain grammar or vocabulary.
I have a set of courses (beginner to advanced) that can guide you if you prefer a more structured environment. If you have materials (from school, or another resource you want to use), we can work with that. I don't normally give homework unless a students wants it.
Everything we do will be designed for you, tailored to your level, your goals, and your interests. Let's make your learning journey fun!
Please note that 60 minute classes are only 55 minutes.
