We'll first review your target score, any practice or previous exams you've taken and when your application deadlines are to make a study plan. We'll review the sections of the exam that you want to work on together, as some students preparing for the TOEFL iBT only want tutoring on a specific section.

We isolate each task to discuss the best strategy for each, then practice it. When you're comfortable, then we'll move on to the next task. I can provide homework if you'd like and I can also provide additional materials if there's something that needs fixing, like a particular grammar topic.
Extra information
Have something to take notes if you're preparing for the TOEFL. We will also use Google Docs.

Our classes will be based on your goals and current level. I teach from the pre-intermediate level to advanced and prefer working with teens and adults. It's ok if you have short term goals, like interview preparation, resume writing or preparing for a trip. It's also ok if your goals are long term where we can make a structured plan to improve every area: speaking, writing, listening and reading.

How do you learn best? We can use a book, songs, TED Talks and a variety of other material.

This class is designed for people who want to understand American Football. It's a common thought that "it's just people running into each other", but it's like chess (just more physical) and you will understand why. We will assess your beginning knowledge and where you want your final understanding to be. By the end of our classes, you will be able to understand the basic rules, the flow of a game, terminology and how it ends.

I also have a board game that we can play (I'll send you the files) that uses actual strategy. Once you get some basics, we can use this tool to put things into practice.

When you join my classes, I want you to feel one thing immediately: you are safe here.


Preparing for an exam like IELTS, TOEFL, or Cambridge can feel overwhelming. There is pressure, deadlines, expectations, and sometimes fear of not being “good enough.” I understand that. I have seen how anxiety and self doubt can block even the most capable students.


In our lessons, mistakes are not embarrassing. They are part of the process. There is no judgment here, only support, patience, and clear guidance. You are allowed to practice. You are allowed to struggle. And most importantly, you are allowed to improve at your own pace.


I truly believe that confidence grows when students feel understood and respected. That is why I take the time to listen to you, to understand your worries, and to help you turn them into strengths. Step by step, you will see progress. Step by step, you will feel more secure.


And yes, even though we are preparing for an important exam, I believe learning should still feel positive. A lesson without a smile is not a good lesson. You deserve to feel encouraged and motivated while working toward something that matters so much to you.


This is more than just an exam. It is your future, your opportunity, your next chapter. And I would be truly happy to support you in that journey.


Book a trial lesson with me and let us talk about your goal, your deadline, and your target score. We will create a clear plan together.


The real question is not whether you are capable. You are.

The question is, are you ready to start?


If you are, I cannot wait to meet you.
