Hello, I am Langa (La - nga) from sunny South Africa.

I started tutoring ESL back in 2019 to children in a previously disadvantaged school. The year 2020 rolled around, and the planet changed, and I had to adjust.

I've since then been helping students of all ages, levels and backgrounds with their English goals, online.

My love of languages, worldly cuisine and cultures drew me to ESL. I enjoy interacting with people from all corners of the globe and hearing their lovely accents.

As a teacher; interests and hobbies of yours as a student are my favorite topics to integrate when personalizing lesson plans. If the content isn't interesting, why would you be interested?

Reading, vocabulary and grammar are my core strengths. Online articles, YouTube videos and short stories are my core tools for your success.

We can achieve your goals for personal, travel or business purposes together! So tell me, when would you like to begin?

I am a recently qualified TEFL teacher, prior to my qualification, I have taught English and Mathematics lessons to primary school learners as well as teaching Constitutional Law to high school learners to enhance their English skills. In my teaching roles I created lesson plans & revamped the curriculum to make it more engaging and interactive.

I come with an extensive background in law and part of my previous roles included drafting and putting together training materials for workshops, so I am also able to give lessons for professionals in business.

As a teacher, I am a passionate about empowering students to achieve success. My teaching philosophy is centered on creating engaging and interactive learning experiences that foster critical thinking, creativity, and academic achievement. I use a variety of teaching methods and technology to enhance your learning experience.

Hello, my name is Bell. I am a TEFL certified ESL tutor and a bachelor's degree educated registered nurse with 17 years of experience in the US. I was born and raised in Hungary but spent most of my life, 26 years, in the USA. I recently moved to sunny Portugal with my husband and youngest son, so just like you, I am learning a new language too! I love to travel, discover, learn and help others.

I believe that learning a new language should be interactive and fun, but also that it takes LOTS of practice and exposure. Stepping outside your comfort zone, especially when it comes to speaking, is scary but I will guide you in a way that will increase your confidence. Whether you are just starting to learn English, or you'd like to improve your existing skills for work, school or pleasure, I am here to help you achieve your goals. If you are a medical professional aspiring to work in English speaking countries, I can teach you vocational language skills and industry specific terminology that you'll find essential to your success.

Growing up in a bilingual family with English and Afrikaans, I naturally gravitated towards English and later discovered my passion for teaching it as a second language. My students often describe me as enthusiastic, goal-driven, and responsible. I embrace challenges and transform them into opportunities. I strongly believe in the reciprocal nature of teaching and learning.
In 2020, I obtained my TEFL Level 5 Certificate from i-to-i TEFL, solidifying my commitment to online teaching. To further enhance my skills, I completed additional relevant courses at Alison College, equipping me with effective tools to deliver productive lessons.
With over three years of online teaching experience, I have successfully worked with diverse students across different levels, age groups, cultures, and platforms. I have overcome various challenges that arise in an online teaching environment, ensuring a smooth and enriching learning journey for my students.

Hello! I'm Miguel, a bilingual individual with British origins. Throughout my life, I have resided in various places, including the UK, the USA, and France. As a result, I am fluent in English with either a British or American accent, and I also possess proficiency in French.

When it comes to enhancing your English skills, there are no shortcuts. It is crucial to have a competent tutor and engage in daily practice.

Practice is essential; it entails listening, reading, writing, taking tests, and, most importantly, speaking on a daily basis. Speaking holds the utmost significance.

Mastering pronunciation presents the most challenging aspect of learning English. Drawing on my knowledge of French and phonetics, I can guide you in quickly and effectively incorporating it into your English usage. I consider it to be over 50% of the English language, intricate yet conquerable with the assistance of a skilled tutor.

Do not waste any more time. Reach out to me, and let me support you on your language journey!

I believe that learning never stops and for you to learn better you need to have a good tutor to guide you and also have the willingness to learn. I am a very patient tutor and a willing student will benefit the most out of working with me. I have been able to teach in an informal school setting for a very short period of time . In this setting my take away from it was that to be a good teacher you must be a good listener to understand the needs of the learner. If you are looking for a tutor who is student centred then I am the best tutor for you.

I earned my BA and MA in English Literature from Allameh Tabataba'i University. It is considered the best university in the education of foreign languages in Iran.

In addition, I also obtained an MSc in Finance from Islamic Azad University, Science and Research Branch. I did it as l was very interested in expanding my understanding of financial markets. This enabled me to comprehend the technical language used in the relevant industry in depth and write economic articles for a well-known online media outlet called Al-Monitor, based in the US.

Last but not least, I acquired my CELTA certificate in April 2020 and IELTS Train the Trainer certificate (IDP) in July 2021 to update myself with the latest approaches in teaching English to speakers of other languages and Cambridge exams.

I am a Youth Researcher with the University of Toronto. I work alongside youth, advocating for those without a voice. A project I have worked on recently was an Emergency Contraceptive Health project with Health Canada, giving my opinion on how the information provided by healthcare professionals could be more widely received by youth. This included updating their information on affordable options, helping products become more inclusive in terms of gender identity, how to get the message across to youth about how important emergency contraceptives are. I am also a mother! Teaching English to a very brand new human being has been quite exciting and has definitely given me some insight into different approaches to learning. I recently moved to Barcelona, Spain and I must admit, it is quite beautiful especially in the small town areas. I plan on returning to school for a different form of research, either Astronomy, Archaeology/Anthropology or Linguistics. I consider myself a student of life, we are all constantly learning!

Hi, my name is Ayşegül. I graduated from Hacettepe University in the department of English Language Teaching. I'm an English teacher in a private institution now. I can teach both English and Turkish.

First and foremost, I want to start with one of my favourite quotation from Richard Henry Dana(!) (I'm not sure whether this quotation belongs to him or not, but I liked it. :) “He who dares to teach must never cease to learn.” First of all, we as teachers must improve ourselves about everything such as cultural knowledge, technology, best seller books new novels etc. We should keep up with the times and try to understand our students.
Then we should know students’ interests, needs, backgrounds and their level of English / Turkish. If we know the aforementioned things, it would be easier for us to decide what kind of materials we can use to attract their attention. Also, one of the key points is that we should motivate the students to learn. As teachers we should teach our students why they learn language/grammar/vocabulary etc. rather than just memorization. Regarding teaching methods we can use student-centered methods. We should use examples from real life so they can broaden students’ knowledge. Also using examples from real life, help students to internalize the examples. I strongly believe that we should make our students acquire the language from all aspects including reading, listening, writing, and speaking.
All in all, as a teacher we have lots of things to do. One of our most important responsibilities’ is to help students to understand that they have enough power and capacity to learn a language if they are determined enough....
