I am a teacher and facilitator of English, maths, science and business management. I support learners in problem-solving and skills acquisition by learning the rules and building the content.
I derive satisfaction from sharing in the learning process. Thus, patience and understanding are part of my approach; motivating learners to better understand the subject. I plan and build technical skills needed by the learner. Eg, maths students are helped to recall the operational rules. Also, reading content with understanding, assists university students to succeed at assignments and exams.

I look forward to every lesson with Imelda. She makes lessons interesting, challenging and fun. She compliments me when I improve and helps me when I struggle with grammar, pronunciation or understanding. I have gained a lot of confidence speaking in public. Her lessons have stuck with me and I keep remembering tips and tricks throughout my day that I now apply when speaking.

I love that Imelda is tailoring the lessons to what is needed and not to just learning English for the sake of it. She has taken time to understand a little more about our business and has provided many resources that are helpful for all of us. She makes Yohane and Thandie laugh and they so enjoy the lessons with her. They are beginning to improve and I am looking forward to seeing what improvement will happen in the next few months. Imelda is an absolute gem!

Imelda is very thorough, very good with bringing understanding to your level. Punctual, professional and friendly. One can see and hear that she knows what she's talking about, and that she actually loves what she's doing. She definitely switched on that light bulb for me. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
