My Teaching Method and Techniques:
I believe the best way to learn English is through low-stress, real-world immersion. Instead of boring you with strict textbook rules, I focus on natural flow, pronunciation, and building your confidence. I use the "Echo Method," meaning when you make a mistake, I simply repeat the sentence back to you with the correct phrasing so you can hear the natural way to say it without stopping our conversation.
A Typical Lesson Plan:
Our lessons feel like a relaxed, easygoing chat with a friend rather than a stressful school class. We will start with a casual 5-minute catch-up to get you warmed up. Then, we will dive into a topic you care about, like your favorite hobbies, global news, or an article you read. While we chat, I will type out helpful vocabulary, native idioms, and real-world slang in the chat box for you to practice.
What Sets Me Apart:
I bring a unique mix of academic knowledge and extreme patience to our lessons. I hold a degree in Political Science, which means I love a good discussion, deep dives into interesting concepts, and helping people articulate big ideas clearly. At the same time, my years of experience working with kids in enrichment programs, after-school care, and as a nanny have taught me how to create a highly supportive, zero-judgment environment.
Who the Lessons Are For:
My lessons are truly for all ages and learning levels! If you are an absolute beginner who feels a bit nervous, I will provide a patient space where you can take your time. If you are a student or advanced professional who wants a challenge, we can use my background to run mock job interviews, review pieces of writing, or debate current global events.
