I have completed my 120-hour TEFL Certification and I’m also an IELTS preparation specialist. I have prepared many students for IELTS and TOEFL exams, focusing on speaking, listening, and writing practice. I aim to give each student the tools to understand and produce the English language as a native speaker would. I make my students feel comfortable and understand the time and effort that each student puts into learning English; an interesting and useful language.

I give my professional best and I am attentive, patient and ready to challenge each student I teach. I seek out and use up-to-date exam preparation materials and I tailor job interview questions to the target industry and role. My students are encouraged to speak as much as possible from their first class and I offer grammar correction as well as exercises to expand phrasal-verb, idiom and collocation vocabulary banks.

I have been teaching English for 10 years. I have taught individuals, small groups and large classes. As well as teaching on various online platforms I have taught in a language school in Mexico City, conducted speaking exams in a university, and as a private tutor in student's homes or places of work. My students have been from all continents of the world ranging from 3 year olds to senior citizens.

As well as teaching English I have worked in various other roles. In the last 10 years since I have lived in Mexico, I have worked in translation, recruitment and e-commerce. In London I owned and daycare company for children aged 0-5.
