Über Mich

Hello! Wonderful to meet you. I'm a passionate and experienced English teacher with a simple objective : to help you achieve your English goals and feel confident speaking the language. I specialize in helping students prepare for important Cambridge exams, like the IELTS, and teach English that is needed for real-life conversations.

For the past 30 years, I've had the chance of teaching students all over the world. Whether it was in a vibrant classroom in another country or right here online, I've seen firsthand how much fun and how rewarding learning English can be. My experience isn't just a number—it's 10,000+ hours of online teaching and 26 years in schools, guiding thousands of students just like you to success.

My online classroom is a space where you can feel comfortable and supported. We'll work together to build your confidence, practice using English in real-world situations, and have fun along the way. I'm here to help you get from where you are now to where you want to be. I believe the best lessons are built on trust, encouragement, and a genuine passion for seeing you succeed.

You can be confident that you're in expert hands. I hold two Master's degrees in Teaching English and various teaching certificates. This extensive background means I have the knowledge and tools to create perfect lessons tailored just for you.

When we work together, you'll not only see your English skills improve, but you'll also find the confidence to use English fluently in any situation. My goal is to empower you to communicate freely and feel ready for whatever life throws your way.

Embark on this language-learning journey with me, and together, we will unlock your full potential in English
