Hey there! I am Esther, from Taiwan! I lived and studied in the US and UK for 8 years, and through this experience, I've walked from being a non-native level speaker to a native-level speaker! (many are surprised!) I know what it takes to transform your English and how to get there for you as a non-native speaker fellow! Can't wait to walk with you on this journey! ☺️ 🌞 experiences in teaching kids and adults 🌞 CELTA certified 🌞 taught in Taiwan, Hungary, and Thailand (online in the UK and US) 🌞 cross-cultural experiences 🌞 learning tips and experience sharing Want to learn how to speak English with confidence and clarity? Want to stop feeling stuck? I'll be teaching you with customized lessons that target your weaknesses, help you set and reach goals, and walk with you on this journey of self-development! 🌞 customized lessons 🌞 communicative approach (discussion-based, learn through activities) 🌞 American pronunciation coaching (sound clearer and feel more confident) 🌞 etymology (boost your vocabulary!) 🌞 idioms (fun phrases to make you sound interesting!) I use the communicative teaching method where most of the activities involve speaking! Each lesson is like a meal🍽 : we'll start with an appetizer to warm you up (get you ready for the activities), a main course is where the 🥩 and juice (the important skills you'll learn and practice) is, and then the last but not least, a 🍨 to help you wrap up the lesson (review errors and what we've learned) A usual lesson would look like this: 🌱 start with topical discussion 🌱 reading/listening activities 🌱 practice activities 🌱 feedback on today's lesson (mistakes, suggestion etc.)
