About me
I began teaching English as a foreign language in 2020, just before England went into lock down. During that time, I taught students online, including learners from my hometown of Southampton. Many recommended me to friends after returning to their home countries, and I’m proud that I still have several of those students as regulars today.
It took me time to find the right career, but teaching English is where I’ve found my passion. I enjoy helping people learn English, build confidence, and achieve their goals.
As a single mum of two, maintaining balance has always been a priority for me. Now that my children are older, I have the opportunity to expand my services. I now offer more English classes in Southampton, along with flexible online English lessons tailored for beginners, intermediate learners, children, and adults.
I’m also developing group English conversation classes locally, giving learners the chance to practice speaking in a supportive environment. Whether you’re looking for private English tutoring or small group lessons, I’d love to help you on your journey.
