About me
Hi Everyone,
My name is Kelly! I am 24 years old and I live in sunny South Africa, I used to reside in the UK for about 10 years but my parents decided to come back to South Africa for family. I have travelled to a few places around the world, like France, Gibraltar, places within the UK and South Africa.

I have worked with children from the ages 7 to 13 years of age. I teach the English language as well as Afrikaans. I make PowerPoints to use for my students to learn from, I do fun activities in order for them to understand what needs to be done in the activity. I have a passion for teaching and tourism. I love to learn new skills and meet new people. I can work in busy environments and cooperate with people when it comes to teamwork. I am very friendly and outgoing, always enthusiastic to learn and undertake new challenges. I also have leadership, and creativity skills as well as communication and adaptation skills.

I have a bubbly personality and I'm always smiling. I love to spend time with family, explore new places and have fun. I like trying new things, wheather it is food or trying a new hobby. I love animals, sport (F1 and Rugby), trying new foods, reading books, anything Disney, listening to music, social media, going on spontaneous roadtrips and overall holidays/travelling if i am able to.

Can't wait to teach/work with you as I love doing what I do, I hope to hear from you soon!

I'm really pleased with how the platform operates. It was effortless to discover teachers who perfectly matched my requirements. The lessons I received were exceptionally satisfying, and I feel like I've made significant progress in my English within a short period. The ability to create and personalize my lesson schedule to suit my work commitments was a huge advantage.

I enjoy learning English with Jacob and Brian. Their teaching style is relaxed, and I find it easier to understand English now. The website is user-friendly, and I appreciate receiving reminders for each of my lessons, the free cancellation policy is very useful!

The platform is simply amazing. The teachers are also incredibly warm and friendly. I took advantage of the discounted introductory lessons and had the opportunity to meet different teachers. The lessons are more like a friendship than a teacher-student relationship.

Emma teaches my daughter English in a very fun way. She is always cheerful and makes the lessons more enjoyable. I consider it a great opportunity to have met Emma through this application and to have her teach us English!

I started learning English from scratch. I worked with Teacher Umut for the first 3 months. When I reached a level where I could communicate without Turkish support, I continued working with my teacher Jade. I am very satisfied with the system. I recommend it to anyone who wants to take lessons regularly and aims to overcome English as a barrier in their life.
