Hello! 👋 I’m a certified English teacher from South Africa with 12+ years of experience and 15,000+ lessons taught. Specializing in exam prep (IELTS, TOEFL, FCE) and fluency coaching, I help students speak confidently while refining grammar and vocabulary naturally—like a friendly chat! My secret? Curiosity. I love asking questions to keep you talking, whether we’re discussing food, nature, or global issues. When offline, you’ll find me hiking, surfing, or buried in a book. Ready to learn your way? Let’s start! 😊
