Hey there! I'm Kate I have dual nationality - British and South African, and currently live in sunny South Africa. I love cooking and spending time with friends and family. I am passionate about teaching English from all levels A1 - C2 - I love watching my students gain confidence and start speaking from the first lesson.
I am CELTA (Cambridge) qualified, with 8 years of teaching experience. My background is pretty unique – 30 years in the corporate world means I've seen communication from every angle. I've worked in sales, marketing, project management, and so many other fields. That means when we talk about English for work, I'm not just teaching – I'm sharing real-world insights. I've helped many students improve their English, from medical, sales, marketing, software, IT, finance, legal, tax and project management professionals, and each journey is special. I also have speaking lessons for each level A1 - C2 on topics such food, travel, technology and many other topics, as well as step by step curriculums for every level to help you improve.
What makes my lessons different? They're fun, engaging, and totally tailored to you. We won't just sit there doing boring grammar exercises. We'll have real conversations, dive into interesting world topics, do role-plays, and I'll help you build genuine confidence. Got a specific industry or exam you're targeting? Perfect! We'll create a learning path that feels more like an exciting adventure than a traditional lesson.I use the Cambridge digital platform for CAE C1 Exam preparation, as well as amazing Oxford curriculums for each level. I also have hundreds of amazing lessons on travel, business, technology and everything else you can think of. After each of our lessons, you'll get personalized notes, homework, videos, and tests. It's like having a language coach in your pocket! From interview preparation to casual travel conversations, from technical business English to creative expression – we'll cover it all.
