Greetings! Looking to take your English to the next level? Whether you want to improve your conversation skills, master academic English, or feel more confident at work, I offer private lessons tailored to your goals and learning style.

Apart from spending several years in New Zealand during my formative years, I spent seven years in the United States completing my higher education, fully immersed in American academic and everyday life. As a result, my English is not only fluent but truly native-level—clear, natural, and authentic. I understand both the mechanics of the language and the cultural nuances that make it come alive. If your Native languages are Mandarin or German, it would be extra efficient for me to adapt to your language learning particularities.

My teaching approach combines structure with immersion:

- Textbook learning to build solid grammar and vocabulary foundations.

- Immersion through media—films, podcasts, and articles—to help you absorb real English as it’s used by native speakers.

- Consistent in-person sessions to practice, correct mistakes in real time, and consolidate your progress through conversation and personalized feedback.

Though I’m new to teaching professionally, my strength lies in being a passionate communicator who knows what it really takes to become fluent—because I’ve done it myself. I have also worked extensively in English in various corporate settings, so if corporate language skills are what you need, you have come to the right place!

If you’re serious about mastering English in a natural, enjoyable way, let’s work together! Feel free to reach out to me to have a conversation (in-person or online, as you prefer) to discuss your goals and the methods that are best suited for your individual learning style!
