About Orla
I have over 14 years of experience tutoring English and hold an MA in English for Specific Purposes (ESP). I love teaching English through popular culture, especially video games, memes, and online communities. These fun and interactive methods make learning informal language, slang, and cultural references enjoyable. My lessons focus on building strong listening skills and deepening cultural understanding. I help students engage with contemporary media in a way that feels natural and exciting. Using examples from games and memes, I create a relaxed environment where students feel comfortable practicing new words and expressions. This approach makes language learning relevant to their daily lives. I enjoy guiding learners to explore the unique language used in online spaces. Together, we unlock the hidden meanings behind popular internet phrases and jokes. I believe that learning English should be both fun and meaningful. My goal is to help students become confident English speakers while connecting with the cultures they love. Whether you’re a gamer or a meme enthusiast, I’m here to support your journey. Let’s learn English while exploring your favorite online worlds!

My teaching approach centers on helping students communicate clearly and confidently in public speaking and formal presentations. I focus on practical strategies for using persuasive language and engaging an audience effectively. Lessons are designed to build strong foundations in professional communication, breaking down complex ideas into simple, manageable steps. I use clear examples and guided practice to make sure every student understands how to command attention and deliver their message with impact. I work especially well with Immigrant/Newcomer and Heritage Learner students, supporting their unique language needs. Through personalized coaching, I help them improve fluency and build confidence in real-life speaking situations. We practice skills like structuring speeches, controlling tone and pace, and using body language. My goal is to make presentation English feel natural and achievable. Together, we’ll master techniques that help you stand out. I provide consistent feedback and encouragement to keep progress steady and strong. By focusing on clear, professional communication, you’ll be ready to succeed in any setting. Let’s work together to build your voice and presence. You’ll gain the tools to communicate with confidence and clarity.
