Services offered

My name is Samantha. I have been an ESL teacher for many years. I have taught students (A0-C2) from all around the world.

I have gained experience teaching working professionals in the software, data science, technology and business fields. I have also prepared my students for exams like the IELTS, for job interviews and living abroad. Hearing the visible improvement of my student's language abilities, that inspires and motivates me as a teacher.

In my classroom my aim is to create an environment where learning occurs through the sharing of knowledge and perspectives. Moreover, my teaching style is aimed at improving all four language skills. The classroom is not only for improving speaking fluency but also focused on improving confidence.
The teaching methods I incorporate in my teaching style are; Student-centered methods, Content-focused methods and Interactive/ Participative methods.

Aside from loving my job, I also enjoy being in nature and spending time with my family.
