About me - English
Hello there, I'm Courtney. A young South African woman living in the UK. I was in the same position as you once, I had to learn English. Although I heard it often and understood it, I went to school here in the UK unable to speak it. Now eighteen years later, I speak English fluently just like someone who was born in England. I have a British English Accent, Yorkshire to be specific.
I enjoy reading, writing, drawing and keeping a journal. I'm an enthusiastic person that thrives of other energy and conversation. I want to help people, and I want to help you improve your English speaking skills.
Qualifications & Experience
I have a level TEFL Certification which I completed in September of 2018. It's through the TEFL Academy and regulated by OFQUAL. I gained a distinction in meeting all the requirements.
I also spent two years as a teaching assistant in a primary school. I was often tasked with leading group and individual reading and writing activities. I would also offer one on one assistance to children that had learning difficulties.
I have been teaching online ESL classes for six months now, with classes of students from 1 to 30.
Teaching Approach
I believe learning should be fun, especially language learning. Humans retain information faster if we enjoy ourselves and why should learning be a drag. I aim to be lively and upbeat keeping things interesting and making learning English both enjoyable and relevant to you.
