Reviving your education…

For me, teaching English has never just been about grammar rules or literary analysis—it’s about opening doors. Over the past decade, I’ve had the joy of teaching students of all ages, from children discovering the magic of stories for the first time to adults sharpening their language skills for work, study, or travel. Each group brings a different kind of energy: the curiosity of younger learners, the ambition of exam-focused teenagers, and the resilience of adults pushing themselves to grow.

My career has taken me from teaching the CEFR framework (beginners - advanced) in ESL classrooms—where helping learners find confidence in their voices is its own reward—to British international schools, where I’ve guided students through the rich worlds of Shakespeare, Brontë, and beyond. No matter the setting, the goal has always been the same: to help people see that language isn’t just a subject, it’s a way of understanding the world and each other.

What I love most is the transformation. Watching a shy ESL student begin to speak with fluency, or seeing a teenager suddenly “get” a poem in a way that relates to their own life, reminds me why I chose this path. English offers both the practical gift of communication and the human gift of empathy—and being a teacher means I get to share both every day.
