Beginner Level
This course moves learners firmly into the B1-B2 CEFR level and continues to incorporate more academic activities into each lesson. This course introduces students to more academically rigorous content by synthesizing the vocabulary and grammar they learn in each unit into a capstone lesson. These capstone lessons not only act as a unit review but also as a means to navigate more challenging reading, speaking, and listening activities they would encounter in an English-medium school. Students will also build their confidence using more extended and complex sentences. With a mix of interactive activities, group discussions, listening exercises, and reading comprehension tasks, we make learning enjoyable. Multimedia tools and resources are also integrated to enrich your experience.

Teacher expertise and credentials
About Me
Hello! I’m an experienced and passionate English teacher with a proven track record of teaching in UK schools, Asian classrooms, and ESL programs worldwide. Coming from a mixed-race, multicultural background, I deeply understand the importance of embracing diversity and creating inclusive learning environments. This perspective shapes my teaching style, making my lessons both culturally rich and accessible to students from all walks of life.
Beyond teaching, I am also a writer of poetry and short stories, with self-published works that reflect my love for storytelling and language. Additionally, I’m an amateur space hobbyist, constantly exploring the wonders of the cosmos. I share my passion for education, literature, and space through YouTube and social media, where I engage with a broader audience.
Teaching Philosophy
I believe every student is unique, and my teaching style reflects this. I create student-centered lessons where learners feel empowered to explore, ask questions, and engage actively. Whether teaching in a UK classroom or guiding ESL students in Asia, I adapt my approach to ensure inclusivity and success for all.
My Teaching Style
Interactive and Engaging Lessons
I use games, storytelling, and technology to make learning fun and memorable. From interactive apps like Kahoot and Quizlet to hands-on activities, I ensure my students enjoy their learning journey while achieving measurable progress.
Focus on Communication
For me, language is about connection. Whether preparing students for Cambridge exams (Starters, Movers, Flyers, PET, KET) or day-to-day conversations, I balance grammar instruction with practical communication skills.
Culturally Responsive Teaching
Growing up in a multicultural environment, I bring cultural relevance into the classroom, celebrating diversity and helping students see language as a tool for exploring the world.
Blended Learning
I combine traditional teaching methods with modern tools to create dynamic lessons. Whether through phonics for young learners or advanced grammar for older students, I ensure every lesson is engaging and impactful.
Differentiation for All Abilities
I tailor lessons to suit mixed-ability classes, providing scaffolding for struggling learners and challenging tasks for advanced students.
Experience and Expertise
In UK Schools
I have extensive experience teaching KS1 to KS4 learners, focusing on literacy, creative writing, and comprehension. I also support EAL (English as an Additional Language) students, helping them integrate and succeed academically.
In Asian Classrooms
My time teaching in Asia has taught me how to bridge the gap between rote learning and critical thinking. I encourage students to express themselves creatively while respecting their learning culture.
As an ESL Teacher
Teaching English as a Second Language is my passion. I specialize in preparing students for Cambridge English exams and designing lessons that make learning practical, fun, and confidence-boosting.
What Makes My Classroom Special
A welcoming and inclusive atmosphere where students feel safe to take risks and learn from mistakes.
Regular feedback and encouragement to build confidence and track progress.
Lessons packed with visual aids, games, storytelling, and relatable examples to make language come alive.
Why I Love Teaching
Helping students discover the power of language is incredibly rewarding. My multicultural background inspires me to connect with students from different cultures and help them find their voice. Whether it’s a shy beginner gaining confidence in speaking or an advanced student mastering a complex concept, I take pride in being part of their journey. I love sparking curiosity, encouraging critical thinking, and creating lessons that inspire students to learn and grow.
