From 17 £ /h
I'm a TEFL Certified (ITQUK) freelance EFL/ESL tutor. I’m also a highly skilled Finance Professional with extensive experience in the International Development sector.
My First Language is English, and I’m fluent in Afrikaans. I have intermediate level skills in French, and I’m at beginner level in Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic (MSA).
Since 2020, I've taught more than 600 lesson hours to students at all levels. My students come from diverse backgrounds and age groups, and are located in various parts of the world, including Canada, Taiwan, France, Tunisia, Senegal and Belgium.
My lessons are student-centred, engaging, and flexible! Lessons are continuously adapted to suit the individual; every lesson is structured based on the identified needs of the student.
The focus of lessons will initially be based on a student needs assessment carried out at the start of your course, and subsequent lessons will be adapted based on your progress throughout the duration of a specific course.
Specific learning areas may include:
* Refining your pronunciation
* Grammar (parts of speech, tenses, modal verbs, phrasal verbs, conditionals, etc.)
* Practicing everyday language and conversational skills
* Exam preparation, focusing on specific grammar and/or vocabulary
* Reading comprehension and practice
* Writing correction or practice
* Improving listening skills
* Business vocabulary and speaking practice
* CV and Cover letter drafting
* Job interview preparation
* Improved confidence in using English
Lessons are conducted almost entirely in English. This has shown to be the most effective way for students to learn a foreign or second language!
To notice an improvement in your English skills, it is recommended that you book an initial course of at least 20 hours.

About Me

My First Language is English, and I’m fluent in Afrikaans. I have intermediate level skills in French, and I’m at beginner level in Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic (MSA).
Since 2020, I've taught more than 600 lesson hours to students at all levels. My students come from diverse backgrounds and age groups, and are located in various parts of the world, including Canada, Taiwan, Switzerland, France, Tunisia, Senegal, England and Belgium.
I've been living and working Internationally for the past 15+ years (including in South Africa, Mozambique, Indonesia, the UK, and Tunisia).
My lessons are student-focused, engaging and flexible! Lessons are continuously adapted according to your level, progress and personal preferences.
Lessons focus on the individual needs of the student, and will focus on different areas, for example: pronunciation refinement, general conversation practice, exam preparation, reading comprehension, writing correction, job interview preparation, etc.
Lessons normally last 45 - 60 minutes, and are done online via webcam (Zoom, Google Meet, or MS Teams). Requests for in person (face-to-face) lessons will be considered, and would normally take place at my home.
I offer lessons during the week, on weekends, and some evenings. Please contact me to arrange a time that suits you (my hours are quite flexible).
