Become a Confident English Speaker – Natural Conversations at Your Own Pace

About This Class

English is a global language that opens doors worldwide. However, knowing the language and having the confidence to speak it are two different things. That is where I come in! My absolute forte is helping students overcome their hesitation and build genuine confidence in speaking English.

In my class, there is no pressure. I create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where we can talk freely. I do not expect you to speak perfectly or do most of the talking in our first few lessons. We will start slowly. As you get more comfortable, we will gradually shift the dynamic until you are doing most of the talking and leading the conversation!

What We Can Talk About

To make learning fun and practical, our lessons will be centered around topics that interest you. We can discuss:

1. Daily Life & Conversational English: Master the phrases used in everyday situations.
2. Professional & Workplace Communication: Build vocabulary for your career, meetings, and workplace interactions.
3. Travel & Culture: Learn how to navigate airport interactions, hotel check-ins, and casual chats abroad.
4. Hobbies & Interests: Talk about sports, movies, books, or anything you love!

Why Choose My Lessons?
1. Tailored Pace: The lessons move at a speed that feels comfortable for you.
2. Active Listening: I focus on guiding you, correcting you gently, and giving you the space to express yourself.
3. Real-World Focus: No boring, repetitive grammar drills—just real, practical English you can use immediately.

About Me

Hi! My name is Geraldene, but you can absolutely call me Ge.

I believe that English is the ultimate bridge to the world—an international language that allows us to connect, share stories, and understand people from every corner of the globe. My goal is to help you cross that bridge with absolute confidence.

Outside of teaching, I am a huge fan of reading, listening to music, and diving into great stories, whether through movies, dramas, or animations. I love bringing these interests into our classes to keep things fun and engaging!

My Experience & Qualifications
I bring a well-rounded and deeply empathetic approach to teaching, shaped by a diverse professional background:

1. Certified ESL Instructor: I hold both TESL and TEFL certificates.
2. 5+ Years of Online Teaching: I have been teaching English online part-time since 2021, working with students of various ages, cultures, and skill levels.
3. Diverse Real-World Experience: Beyond teaching, I have valuable experience working in Customer Service and as a Certified Caregiver.

Because of my experience in customer service, I know exactly how to guide professional, polite, and effective workplace communication. Meanwhile, my background in caregiving has taught me the values of extreme patience, deep listening, and kindness.

I understand that learning a new language can feel intimidating. Because of that, I make it my mission to create a calm, encouraging space where it is perfectly okay to make mistakes.

I can't wait to meet you in class and help you reach your goals! Let’s start speaking English with confidence!

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

You've watched enough K-dramas to know 사랑해. This course takes you from there to real conversations. We start from zero, including the alphabet. No textbook dialogues. Just the Korean people actually use day to day.

What you'll learn :
- Read Hangul (it takes about two lessons)
- Casual vs polite Korean, and when to use each
- Introduce yourself, order at a cafe, react to things, and text a Korean friend
- Current slang, and which words are already going out of style

There's no fixed number of lessons. In the first class, I'll check your level and goals, and build the plan around you. Once the basics are down, we keep going with more conversation, more real situations, and more slang.

About me: I'm a native Korean speaker who has lived in Japan for 11 years and went to an international school. I am also experienced in teaching Korean, so I know how to explain things clearly to beginners.
