About

With a bachelor's degree in Mass Communication from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, I honed my communication skills as a radio and television assistant producer, where I learned the power of clear and real communication. This experience taught me how to help voices be heard, a skill that remains crucial in today’s global world. In 2021, after earning a TEFL certification, I transitioned into teaching English as a foreign language on an online ESL platform, applying my communication skills in a new and meaningful way.

Since then, I have refined my teaching and communication abilities, delivering over 5,200 hours of online instruction and helping more than 300 students achieve their personalized language goals. I currently hold a 4.9-star rating, with numerous positive reviews from students who describe me as empathetic, patient, compassionate, and dedicated. 

I specialize in helping professionals and kids improve their English for real-world goals, offering targeted sessions like Job Interview and Presentation Coaching, Business English for working Professionals, and English for kids/teenagers . Whether you're aiming for a promotion, test success, or career change, I tailor lessons to your needs. Moreover, I have successfully taught both children and adults, delivering engaging and transformative lessons that have led to high success rates.

In short, many of my students describe me as a passionate educator who excels at providing specific personalized, one-on-one English instruction in a positive, accommodating and judgment-free environment. Not only am I enthusiastic about teaching but I am also open to feedback and committed to continuous improvement in my methods and strategies.

My dedication to fostering strong communication has even motivated me to begin learning Spanish, enabling me to better support Spanish-speaking students around the world. My aim is to make lessons with learners from diverse background more comfortable, efficient, and rewarding.

 

Teaching Style

My general teaching style focuses on creating a calm, student-centered and positive class environment. I don't ever want my students to feel shy or demotivated whenever they think about their English lessons. 

First, my teaching approach stands out because my class is a calm, positive space; ideal for shy or unsure learners. Next, I give step-by-step guidance and I won't overwhelm you with a flood of rules. I am also available to teach 6 days a week and open to after class support; this gives you enormous options to find your perfect day and time to have your lessons or to reach out to me anytime the need arises.

Then, you are guaranteed to have focused sessions using videos, audios, presentations/slides, conversations that elicit unbiased responses, vocabulary that sticks and grammar exercises designed not to bore you. Finally, I am big on encouragement. I will always cheer you on in every progress you make. You can't have lessons with me without having a boost in your self-belief as well as skills.

In summary, you’ll definitely speak more clearly and articulately, understand more easily and hold better conversations whether they happen in classrooms, offices, airports, or across the dinner table!

Curriculum

First I asses a student's level. Next, I note down the goals they want to achieve and the duration needed for them to be realized. After, I create essential and innovative ESL instructional materials suited to the student's need. I am a multi-level experienced English tutor who teaches all learner's level and is able to engage students with creative and effective lesson materials and track their progress, by making use of online digital tools & blended learning techniques to assist them accomplish said goals.
