Bio

I'm a 28-year old married English teacher living in the Friendly City. I'm passionate about languages, meeting interesting people and teaching others about my mother tongue and culture.

I'm friendly, patient, kind, and I speak slowly and clearly. I try to create examples that are personal to students so that they can identify, relate and understand concepts of grammar and conversation. I like to go the extra mile to help those in need. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and meeting new students, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to share my life and experiences with them.

Education

• 2008-2010: Bachelor of Arts in Media, Communication and Culture (Nelson Mandela University)
• 2011: TEFL Certificate (120-hour classroom course in France); 50-hour online Business English Certificate
