About

I teach ESOL to adult learners and really enjoy seeing students grow in their English skills. I have worked with learners at many levels and especially like helping them use English in everyday life. I am passionate about making lessons fun and useful, and I enjoy learning about my students’ cultures. In my free time, I like music, exploring new places, and spending time with friends and family.

What do you enjoy about teaching/your job?

 I really enjoy helping students gain confidence in their English skills and use the language in everyday life. I like designing activities that are engaging, practical, and enjoyable. One of the best parts of my job is learning about different cultures from my students and seeing them achieve their personal goals.

What do you love about your area?

I love working in ESOL because it gives me the opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives. It’s rewarding to see students gain the skills they need to communicate, study, and work in New Zealand. I also enjoy the cultural exchange that happens in the classroom and the chance to learn from my students while helping them achieve their goals.
