English for children - with adapted and innovative methods.
I struggled with learning and concentration throughout my school career. That's why I specialized in teaching young children aged 4 to 18, helping them learn using adapted methods that I didn't have growing up. I don't just follow the traditional teaching methods used in schools. This passion for my work inspires me to find innovative ways to teach languages.

Speak Up! English for Global Communication; Basic Skills for Everyday Use
Hi there! I’m a certified English teacher with a strong passion for helping students build confidence and fluency. After completing my certification, I took several private teaching courses to improve my skills—and now I’m excited to use those tools to help you succeed in your English journey. Whether you're looking to gain confidence when speaking, learn to think in English, or simply improve your skills, I’ve got you covered. I work with students of all ages and backgrounds—from complete beginners to more advanced learners. For children, I offer progressive, age-appropriate vocabulary and grammar lessons, designed to be fun and effective. I currently teach students as young as five years old and understand how to keep young minds engaged. (Did you know the best time to learn a second language is before age 10?) But don’t worry—it’s never too late! I personally learned Spanish at 30, and I believe anyone can succeed with the right support. For adults, I use a variety of helpful tools and resources to make lessons both engaging and practical. Whether you're focused on conversation, grammar, or vocabulary, lessons are always tailored to fit your needs—and we can even use your own materials if you’d like. I’ve had the pleasure of teaching students from China, Korea, Spain, France, Turkey, Croatia, Saudi Arabia, and many other countries. No matter where you're from or what your goals are, I’m here to help. Let’s give it a try—you just might reach your goal in 3 months!
