About Me

Teaching is my vocation. I am a servant leader, humble but knowledgeable. If you hate experts, is it because of their arrogance? I will listen to your needs and suggest a direction. If you want to work with me, there are things that I'll suggest for your success, but a lot of choices too.
I am a Bible believing Christian and encourage mindfulness, self reflection in all my learners. I am committed to your success - perhaps even more so than you are (as I've found to my detriment in the past)! I have learned to set goals, and work towards them in incremental steps. I understand a lot about self-development and how to achieve your goals - both from reading and to some extent personal experience.
As well as training music teachers and teaching music in all it's various formats, I enjoy writing poetry and public speaking, as well as hand crafts and entrepreneurship. I have many projects on the go at any one time and will continue to grapple at balancing life, while I find enjoyment in the many areas of engagement. I love living in Jamaica, but I consider my self a citizen of the world, especially with today's technology.

Education

I have a Ph.D. in Music Education and I love teaching.
I was educated by Jamaica parents, and in UK, USA and through life's experiences in Africa, Canada, France, Egypt and the Caribbean.
I have a TEFL Diploma (teaching English as a foreign language and have taught remotely and in person for many years. I like to personalize lessons and I know and engage students via a range of teaching and learning styles.

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 :)

Learn French, English or Spanish in a natural and effective way

With over 17 years of experience in language teaching, I have developed an immersive and contextual method that allows you to learn a language like you learn your mother tongue: by understanding, using and living the language from the very first lesson.

My method is based on a simple principle: communication before memorization. Instead of accumulating vocabulary lists or isolated grammar rules, you learn the language through real-life situations, dialogues, stories, images, videos, and conversations tailored to your level.

What distinguishes my method:

* Gradual immersion from the very first lesson.
* Clear explanations tailored to your profile.
* Simultaneous development of comprehension and oral expression.
* Correction of pronunciation in real-world context.
* Natural acquisition of vocabulary and grammar.
* Customized support tailored to your objectives.
* Emphasis placed on confidence and fluency in speaking.

I teach teenagers, adults, professionals, and students who wish to:

* Improve their conversation.
* Prepare for an exam (DELF, TCF, TEF, IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC, DELE, etc.).
* To travel or settle abroad.
* Use the language in a professional context.
* Develop a more natural pronunciation.

Each lesson is designed as a hands-on experience where you actively use the language rather than passively study it. My goal is to help you speak with confidence, spontaneity, and accuracy as quickly as possible.
