ESL & conversation
Build usable language through context, modeled examples, and purposeful speaking practice.
TEACHING & TRAINING
Language learning with a purpose.
I connect structured instruction with meaningful communication, individual feedback, and an understanding of the learner.
Confidence grows through supported practice.
My teaching experience includes ESL and IELTS instruction, English communication curricula, and mentoring international learners. I approach each lesson as a sequence that makes the next step achievable.
IELTS preparation
Connect exam preparation with clear language practice and constructive learner feedback.
Business & interview English
A focus area in the WillSpeak brief: professional situations, workplace communication, and interview practice.
Young & adult learners
The WillSpeak brief includes differentiated pathways for age, communication goals, and support needs.
THE PROCESS
A practical, connected approach.
- 01Understand the learner
- 02Set a clear goal
- 03Model & scaffold
- 04Practice communication
- 05Feedback & reflection
Assessment & feedback
I use learner needs and performance in practice to guide the next step. Feedback should explain what to work on and how to practice it, rather than simply giving a score.
Cross-cultural learning
Working with international learners has made clear communication, careful listening, and adaptable explanation central to my teaching.
Training & program coordination
My roles extend beyond individual classes to instructional materials, academic operations, teacher support, and student mentoring.
ILLUSTRATIVE LESSON STRUCTURE
A small task. A clear progression.
This portfolio example illustrates a beginner classroom-vocabulary lesson. It is not an original classroom artifact or a claim of tested outcomes.
- Notice. Identify familiar classroom objects with visual support.
- Practice. Model “What is this?” and “It’s a…” in pairs.
- Communicate. Describe an object for a partner to identify.
- Reflect. Name one phrase you can use without help.
