About Lucy
Hello, I’m Lucy Warutumo, a certified TEFL Essentials course graduate with a passion for helping learners speak English clearly, naturally, and without fear. My structured yet flexible approach is built on proven teaching methods, and I take pride in creating a respectful, encouraging, and mistake-friendly classroom environment. Every lesson is carefully planned, punctually delivered, and tailored to your personal goals because your progress is my priority. With me, you’re not just learning English; you’re gaining a reliable guide who shows up prepared, listens actively, and celebrates every small victory along the way.
Let’s begin when you’re ready.

My Teaching Method & Techniques
I use a communicative and student-centered approach, meaning you learn by actually using English – not just memorizing rules. My techniques include:
Task-based learning (solving real-world problems in English)
Scaffolding (building from simple to complex with my support)
Error correction through guided self-discovery (so you remember corrections naturally)
Multisensory activities (visuals, audio, movement, and role-play)
A Typical Lesson Plan (60 minutes)
Warm-up (5–7 min) – Quick speaking game or review of previous topic.
Presentation (10–12 min) – Introduce 5–7 new vocabulary items or one grammar point using pictures, short dialogues, or a mini-story.
Practice (15 min) – Controlled exercises like gap-fills, matching, or repetition drills.
Production (20 min) – Real-life task: ordering food, describing a photo, solving a problem in pairs.
Cool-down & feedback (5–8 min) – Quick quiz, error recap, and setting a tiny homework challenge.
What Sets Me Apart
I’m patient and encouraging – I know that making mistakes is how we learn.
I personalize every lesson to your interests (sports, business, travel, exams).
My TEFL Essentials training gives me a solid foundation, but my warm, adaptable personality makes you feel comfortable speaking from day one.
I use simple, clear language and repeat key ideas in different ways until they click.
Who the Lessons Are For
My lessons are ideal for:
Beginners to intermediate learners (A1–B2 CEFR level)
Teens and adults (14+) who want practical English for travel, work, school, or daily life
Students who feel shy or stuck and need a safe, low-pressure environment to start speaking
Anyone who has tried grammar-heavy courses and wants a more natural, conversation-focused approach
I look forward to helping you grow confident in English – one real conversation at a time.

Details
To help you plan ahead, my hourly teaching fee includes all custom-prepared materials: worksheets, digital flashcards, short readings, and speaking activities tailored to your level. You won’t pay extra for lesson resources.
If we decide to meet in a physical classroom (rather than online or at a public library), any venue booking fee would be added separately. For online lessons, there is no additional cost just a stable internet connection on your side.
I also offer small package discounts (e.g., 5 or 10 lessons paid in advance) to support regular learners. Feel free to ask about this when you inquire no pressure, just transparency.
You always know exactly what you’re paying for.
