About Me

Hi, I'm Teacher Mbalenhle! 🌟

English doesn't have to be boring. In my classes, kids learn through games, stories, songs, and lots of laughing, and they barely notice they're learning!

I'm TEFL-certified (120 hours of training in teaching English), and I love helping kids go from shy and quiet to confident and chatty. I'm patient, encouraging, and always cheering your child on, and every little win gets a celebration. 🎉

In my classes, your child will

- 🗣️ Speak English with confidence, with no pressure and no fear of mistakes

- 📚 Build vocabulary, reading, and pronunciation skills

- 🎲 Learn through fun activities made for their age and level

- 😄 Look forward to every lesson

Before teaching, I worked in customer service, so I know how to listen, stay friendly, and explain things clearly. 😊

Ready to make English your child's new favourite subject? Book a trial lesson and let's play, learn, and grow together! 🚀

Experience / Qualifications

Home Tutor | 3 years
Private tutoring for my own child, ages 5 to 9

For the past four years, I've been my son's at-home teacher, supporting him from age 5 to 9. I've helped him build his reading, vocabulary, and speaking skills, and watched him grow more confident along the way.

Teaching one child every day taught me a lot:

- 🎲 Kids learn best when it's fun, so I turn lessons into games, stories, and challenges

- 🌱 Every child learns at their own pace, and patience and encouragement go a long way

- 🎉 Small wins matter, so I celebrate every step forward

- 📅 Consistency works, and short, regular practice builds real progress

I bring that same warmth and care to every child I teach.

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.

Hello everyone,
My name is Phillip. I am an experienced, native bilingual (USA/Switzerland) English teacher. Today, I am pleased to guide you in your learning from my office located in the wild and inspiring setting of western Ireland.

With many years of experience as a private tutor, I work with students from all backgrounds. However, over time, I have developed an approach that is particularly appreciated by seniors and retirees. Why? Because I am convinced that learning a language at this stage of life should first and foremost be a shared pleasure, a window onto the world, and a wonderful way to keep the mind sharp and curious.
My approach: Trust and kindness above all

Many of us have somewhat rigid memories of school learning. With me, forget the stress of mistakes or tedious grammar. My primary goal is to restore your confidence. We progress at your pace, with a gentle, patient, and personalized teaching approach. Whether you're starting from scratch or simply want to refresh your old school memories, I adapt completely to your needs.

What we can explore together:
- Travel English: So that your next trip abroad is synonymous with serenity (getting around, ordering in restaurants, communicating with locals without apprehension).

-Maintaining family ties: Ideal if you have bilingual grandchildren or grandchildren living abroad and you want to share more with them.

-Conversation & Culture: Discuss current events, literature, history or life in Ireland, while enjoying my clear and easy-to-understand native accent.

-Brain gymnastics: Using English as a fun and stimulating tool to maintain memory and cognitive plasticity.

Why choose me?
As a dual American and Swiss national living in Ireland, I bring a unique cultural richness to your life. I have a mastery of all the nuances of the English language, but I also have a perfect understanding of French culture and structure.

Practical and technological aspects:

We'll work together via Zoom or Google Meet, very simple and reliable tools. If you're worried about the technology, don't be: I'll guide you step by step during our first session so you feel completely comfortable on screen. It's much simpler than it seems!

Join me for a friendly and engaging experience, blending Swiss rigor, American optimism, and the legendary warmth of Ireland. Let's transform your English practice into a truly enriching human adventure.
Nice to meet you,

Phillip

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in French, my academic training covered French grammar, linguistics, oral and written communication, translation, Francophone literature, and culture. I also participated in the French Language Immersion Programme at the Nigeria French Language Village, Badagry, strengthening my practical communication skills and cultural understanding. Additionally, I received scholarship sponsorship for French proficiency examinations in recognition of my commitment to language learning and professional development. These academic and immersive experiences provide a strong foundation for teaching French and supporting learners in achieving their language goals.

Are you preparing for exams like the TCF, travelling to a French-speaking country, dating a French boyfriend or girlfriend, passionate about French, or looking to boost your CV?

Whatever your reason for learning French, I’m giving you 14 days to start speaking and communicating in French with confidence!

The IELTS examination is a significant stepping stone for not only children, but adoloscents and adults - whether for the purpose of immigration, or for studying abroad. It is an exam that I gave just last year, for the exact purpose to my further studies.

As I am familiar with the current structure of the IELTS exams, the classes would be structured around each learner individually. Meaning, the first class would be utilised in testing the level of comfort the student has with the language. Following this, each class would be tailored to a specific portion of the examination. For example, one would be suited to the reading portion, while the other to the speaking portion.

Each class would consist of classwork (past papers and excercises) and homework (evaluated by me).
