Quick English Speaking, Reading & Confidence Building

Hi, I specialized in English teaching for more than 10 years & have been training many internationals in my 7 full years of being in educational institutes & NGOs. I had the priviledge to teach English in Bangkok, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Portugal and Poland

I have run more than 70 education workshops/training. I have both TESOL & TEFL teaching certificate.

My lessons starts with a casual conversation to get a feeling of my students level. It will then be a series of topic of conversations that I will go through. My aim is to make my students as casual and normal as I can so it's a natural conversation no matter what level my students at. This is to build their comfortability to make mistakes and be OK with it, so they can learn faster.

Grammar and vocabulary will come during and after I sense a confidence in my students.
My techniques are adopted from years of working in international education organisations with underprivileged and illiterate groups to fast track their ability to master and converse in English.

So let me know if you would like to learn with me, you can even give it a try with half the price for the first class :)

Mina
English teacher with plenty of experience and patience
If you want to learn English language, I am here to help you. It is not difficult as it may look, but you have to be persistent if you want to reach your goal. Let me show you that English classes can be fun and studying can be interesting. I'm an English teacher for more than six years and I have plenty of experience. At the beginning of the course, studying material is particularly selected for each student depending on their level of knowledge. After the type of course is determined, focus is on the weak spots and improving whatever skill a student is lacking in. Speaking is always emphasized. In class students can suggest other materials, books etc and ask for lessons they want to study. Asking questions is always a good thing and cooperation between teacher and a student is crucial. If you agree, contact me and start your English course today! I'm looking forward to helping you learn English!
