⚠️ (I'm not currently starting new 1-1 students. Questions? Message me!)
Hi, I'm Katie! I am a Professional Teacher online/offline. I have a degree in Elementary + Special Education and I'm TEFL certified. I used to teach Middle School, and I've been teaching English as a Foreign Language for more than 7 years.
I coach professionals who want to feel free, relaxed, and confident communicating in English so they can speak up at work and in meetings with confidence, start new opportunities without doubting themselves, enjoy traveling and making new friends without stress, and reach their life goals using English!
When I'm not teaching: 🗻🧘🏼📖🥾🌿Minha atuação como professor
English should be enjoyable, not stressful, and I'll help you feel more comfortable being yourself in English. After teaching for more than 10 years, I know which strategies and resources are effective, and I will coach, motivate, and help you grow as a person while reaching your English goals.
Our meetings together are a place where you can feel comfortable being yourself, making mistakes, and asking questions. It is my goal for you to learn new things, feel confident and natural speaking, and have the opportunity to use English as much as possible!Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
My lessons are great for people who already know some English, but want to unblock their speaking and take their confidence to the next level. Each lesson will be personalized and based on your interests and goals.
But if you really want to see your progress, I recommend that you make some time for English between lessons! Before our lesson, I'll send you an article/video for us to discuss together. Even though we will focus primarily on speaking, we will work on new expressions, vocabulary, grammar, and exercises in pronunciation so you feel more confident and prepared to speak as naturally and accurately as possible.Meu material de ensino

Teaching IELTS Exam Prep - Bridge TEFL - 2022In this Teaching IELTS course, trainees gain a comprehensive understanding of the IELTS exam, including the scoring criteria and question types. The course suggests ways for teaching both general and IELTS specific test-taking strategies. In the final sections, I was required to find practical suggestions for teaching students how to succeed on all of the four components of the test. To complete the course, there was a final project, discussions, readings, and quizzes to complete.

I highly reccomand Katie. I was (and I'm currently) able to detect every single improvement I had since the beginning, thanks to the experties she has when she choose both our lesson's topics (so interesting) and the exersises . I asked for some specific goals to be reached and I'm really happy to notice how they have been achieved step by step. So happy and satisfied about this experience!

Katie is a kind and very competent teacher. I asked her to help me with a very complex task and she helped me with competence and kindness. Even after working hours, as great professionals do. Thank you Katie, you are really super!

Lessons with my teacher are very inspiring and fit my needs. I thinks that she knows exactly what helps me to improve my English and what I enjoy about learning English. She gives me so much space to speak and provides me with a lot of stimuli to think about. On top of that, her teaching style is fun.
