Hi! I’m Ria from South Africa—a friendly English teacher helping students speak confidently! With 14+ years of teaching (and 4 online!), I specialize in boosting fluency through real conversations. My neutral accent and love for cultures (I’ve lived in London and traveled to 8+ countries!) make lessons relaxed and practical. Whether you’re prepping for travel, work, or daily chats, I’ll tailor lessons to your goals. Let’s make mistakes, laugh, and grow together—book a trial, and let’s chat!

Ik als leerkracht
Hi! I’m Ria, a qualified teacher with over 14 years of classroom teaching experience and have spent the last 4 years teaching English online. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Drama, an Honours Bachelor’s in Education, and a Level 3 TEFL certificate. My neutral South African accent is clear and easy to understand—perfect for English learners around the world!
I love helping students build confidence, improve fluency. Whether you’re preparing for an interview, improving your conversational skills, or working on grammar and vocabulary, I’ll do my best to tailor our lessons to suit your goals.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I'm a passionate teacher who believes that the best way to learn a language is by using it—a lot! My lessons focus on real conversation and active listening because I’ve seen firsthand how speaking and listening together help students build confidence and fluency faster.
I love to help students feel comfortable to express themselves, even if they make mistakes—that’s how we learn! Every student is different, so I always encourage each student to share their goals and expectations with me. That way, I can try to tailor our lessons to fit your needs and help you reach your language goals in a way that feels natural and enjoyable.
I am looking forward to meeting you!!!

Ria is a wonderful listener with endless patience. She would understand you perfectly even though you might not feel like expressing yourself clearly. What’s more, every subject are welcomed to talk with her, ranging from daily life to politics. Anyway, I’m glad to meet such a motivating and knowledgeable teacher like her.
