Bio

Teaching is not just my job, but also my passion. I focus on the individual needs of each student, tailoring my lessons to the way they learn best. I'm well prepared and punctual.

My experience in remedial teaching, and years of working as a strengths coach gives me the edge needed to look at people as individuals, each with unique strengths and weaknesses. I'm patient and fully invested in the teaching journey of my students, I can see obstacles before we get there and find a way to overcome them. I like to see people succeed and maximize their potential.

Reviews from others

“I enjoy the classes with Adele, she makes me feel at ease and not embarrassed about my mistakes. My first langue is Afrikaans and not English. I contacted Teach me 2 as I was unsure as to why my grammar was always a problem. Adele is a great tutor and is assisting me to learn the basics that I never learnd. Her communication is great and I am never unsure about classes and what is expected from me. ”
