What I'm looking for

I’m looking to teach English and support learners with clear lesson planning and assessment, including IELTS speaking coaching, in a curriculum-driven environment where I can help students progress confidently.

I am an English and language educator who has taught conversational English, reading, writing, and listening across primary and secondary levels. I coached learners for IELTS exams, focusing mostly on the speaking part of the test, while preparing lesson plans, speaking tests, and grading students.

Beyond classroom teaching, I bring disciplined training and assessment habits developed from years in professional kitchens and leadership roles. I have worked with the Cambridge International Curriculum and taught Science and Maths, and I also supported exchange students preparing for studying abroad.
