Young Learners
Younger Learners from ages 6 to 12 are my speciality. As I can connect to and witness who they are as individuals, it makes the learning process so much easier as students feel guided, safe and held.I endeavour to meet the student where they are at to raise them up to where they would like to be.
Textbooks and Materials.
I use a variety of resources from the internet, as well as my own chosen selection of text books from "Write Source" Writing to "Wonders" General English including Reading and Writing as well as a Literature Anthology.

I also use Trello and each student can design there own "board" and we can set up what the student would like to cover. This ranges from engaging news articles, videos, to Ted Talks where we discuss current events or interest appropriate content.

PenPals
Students will have the chance to write to other students in other parts of their own country, or world, in English. This brings out the real world phenomenon that creative learning brings.
Middle School Students
I encourage a relationship with my older students so that our learning process is authentic, learner interest based and a communicative, mutual interaction.

Science and Biology Students
Subjects of interest to your child can also be explored from Nature and Biology studies, to Space and even Robotics!
Business English
Older students can choose between general conversation, reading, writing and speaking. Business English is offered across the spectrum of skills as it incorporates all levels and can be tailored to your specific career path.
