Greetings! My name is Naima, and I am a passionate 34-year-old ESL teacher currently residing in Asia. Originally hailing from Washington D.C., I bring a rich blend of American culture and global experiences to my classroom. Teaching English has been my calling, driven by a deep-seated love for languages and a desire to empower students in their language journey. I find immense joy in helping my students develop their English skills, enabling them to communicate confidently and effectively. Outside of teaching, I have a fondness for the color pink, which mirrors my vibrant personality and penchant for creativity.

I specialize in helping students from all over the world feel confident in speaking English.
I love discovering new methods for helping students succeed as well as learning new things about my student's interests.
My primary goal is to help students reach English fluency and be the best that they can be! :DMijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My lessons are very hands on and very interactive and engaging.
For example, my students and I often watch YouTube or Netflix content together in order to discuss various English phrases they may not understand. This method makes for a very exciting and engaging class.
I also encourage my students to speak as much as possible.
Do not worry about your English ability; YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE PERFECT!
Any English ability is a great English ability!
Furthermore, my classes are very casual so you don't need to feel nervous or shy when entering my classroom. :D
If there is a specific lesson in which you would like for me to make (based on your learning needs) I am happy to do so!Mijn lesmateriaal

Teacher Nardia is guiding my 8-year-old son in learning to speak English. She can also speak Korean, which is very helpful for Korean learners as it makes them feel more comfortable. I appreciate her patience and energetic teaching style, which encourage my son to speak English freely, even when he makes mistakes. Thanks to her support, he is becoming more confident in his English skills.

Naima's class was very satisfactory.
I felt caring in the way she spoke English slowly so that a student like me could easily understand it.
And, even though my little daughter interrupted the class, Teacher Naima naturally greeted my daughter and treated her warmly. Then, I was able to take class comfortably without embarrassment. I really appreciate her.
She smiles a lot and is humorous.
I think I met a good teacher for studying English.
I am looking forward to another class.
