About Thalia

I offer personalized English lessons designed to meet your specific goals—whether academic, professional, or personal. My teaching style is flexible, goal-oriented, and adapts to your evolving needs. From accent softening and idioms to reading comprehension and visual storytelling, I cover a wide range of practical skills that bring the language to life. Each session is structured yet responsive, blending precision with empathy. I work especially well with those looking to elevate their everyday conversations or refine their professional communication. Together, we’ll develop seamless fluency and expressive clarity that feels natural and confident. My lessons are rooted in real-world relevance, with a strong focus on building vocabulary, improving pronunciation, and understanding tone. I use creative prompts, short readings, and guided speaking exercises to keep things engaging and meaningful. Over time, you’ll feel the language becoming a part of you—fluid, expressive, and accurate.

With 8 years of dedicated experience, I specialize in helping beginner and intermediate English learners build strong foundations in spoken English. I hold a Master of Arts in English Literature, with a focus on the Early Modern Period, which deepened my understanding of the richness and rhythm of the language. My teaching emphasizes pronunciation clarity, intonation patterns, and the natural rhythm of English speech.

I use structured drills and targeted phonetic exercises to help students gain precision and confidence. Audio recordings are a key part of our sessions, allowing us to track progress and celebrate growth over time. My approach is warm, supportive, and highly personalized.

Students learn English sound by sound, syllable by syllable, until speech becomes smooth and expressive. I’ve had great success working with non-native speakers, actors perfecting their diction, and public speakers seeking to refine their voice. Whether you're preparing for a performance or simply want to speak clearly and confidently, I’m here to help.

Every lesson is designed with care, combining linguistic accuracy with encouraging guidance. We celebrate small wins and build steadily. You'll hear the difference, and so will others. Let’s master English—one clear sound at a time.
