Bio
I am a qualified English language teacher with a creative and functional approach to teaching. I can professionally teach and coach any learner for effective use of all the English Language skills.
I am self-driven and passionate when it comes to helping learners especially in mastering basic skills like reading and understanding and creative use of the English Language. I also believe in the English Language as a bridge to understanding the whole school curriculum. Once a learner is home and dry with their English language, they would find it easy to understand anything at school.
