About me
Strong English is not only about accuracy; it is about expressing ideas clearly when the pressure is high. My lessons focus on job interviews, speaking exams, and professional communication for learners who want to speak with confidence and purpose.
I am an English teacher with over 18 years of experience helping students communicate more authentically. My main areas are job interview preparation, IELTS and TOEFL speaking practice, and workplace communication. For interview preparation, I help students research positions, organize their answers, highlight strengths, and communicate past experience in a clear and convincing way.
For speaking exams, I focus on practical ways to improve fluency, structure responses, reduce stress, and express ideas more naturally. My lessons can also include accent reduction, listening comprehension, speaking practice, academic English, business English, colloquial English, and interview preparation.
My background includes TESOL training, a B.A. in Cross-Cultural Studies, and years of teaching in different professional and educational settings. Outside the classroom, I have spent many years traveling and living internationally, which has shaped my flexible, communicative teaching style. My goal is to help students use English with clarity, confidence, and real-world impact.
