Hi, I’m Lara, a passionate English teacher from Cape Town, South Africa, with 10 years of experience helping students ace exams like IELTS, CAE and TOEFL. My secret? Making learning feel like an adventure, just like my love for travel and exploring cultures!
When I’m not teaching, I’m buried in fantasy novels or practising Portuguese (I’m learning too, so I *get* the struggle!). Let’s turn your English goals into a fun, confidence-boosting journey, whether it’s acing an essay or chatting fluently over *virtual* coffee. Ready?Ik als leerkracht
I am a fun, engaging and patient English teacher with great methods and exciting content. I am also able to assist you with perfecting your pronunciation and intonation of the English language.
I am a well-organized professional with proven teaching and guidance skills and over 10 years of experience in the field.
I have worked as a primary school teacher, a special needs facilitator and a high school History and English teacher. The varying levels of my experience allow me to use the right methodology and approach to help you grow confidence while using English.
I have been teaching English online for over 5 years to people of all ages.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I like to use a variety of teaching styles to find out what works best for each learner, these include:
Visual - images, flashcards and graphs to spark conversation and improve vocabulary.
Audio - audio clips and short videos that enhance classroom topics.
Written - once writing, I encourage learners to write and practice as much as possible.
Movement - sometimes jumping, clapping and acting helps us learn quicker.
Games - I enjoy turning learning activities into games so that we can learn without even noticing it!
