About Jelka
With over three years of teaching experience and a background as a qualified translator with a Master’s degree, I help learners of all ages and levels build confidence and clarity in English - whether they’re learning the language for the first time, catching up in school, or aiming to express themselves more fluently.
I hold an Bachelor's and Master's degree in Theatre and Performance Studies, both of which have equipped me with strong academic writing skills and a deep understanding of how language works in both creative and analytical contexts.
Having lived and studied in Germany, the UK, and now Canada, I bring a global perspective and a deep understanding of the challenges English learners face. My lessons are structured, supportive, and tailored to each student’s goals. I believe in creating a learning space where curiosity is encouraged, mistakes are welcomed, and progress is always possible.

Learning English can open doors—but it’s also a journey that takes time, patience, and the right support. I offer a calm, encouraging environment where learners can grow their skills and confidence at their own pace.
Teaching methodology:
Compassion: I support learners in overcoming language anxiety and self-doubt, helping them stay motivated and engaged.
Personalized feedback: I provide clear, constructive feedback to help students understand their strengths and areas for growth.
Flexible focus: Whether it’s grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, or school assignments, lessons are adapted to what matters most to the learner.
A typical lesson might include:
Check-in: Review of recent progress or questions
Focus area: Targeted work on a specific skill or topic
Practice: Interactive exercises, reading, writing, or conversation
Wrap-up: Feedback, reflection, and next steps
Who my lessons are for:
- Children and teens needing support with school English (reading, writing, comprehension)
- Adult learners improving everyday or workplace English
- Students preparing for English-language schooling or exams
- Anyone looking to feel more confident and capable in English
