About Me

italki teacher since Mar 8, 2019

My name is Jen. I was born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa and enjoy reading, writing and watching movies and series. I currently live in a suburb called Bryanston, in the greater Johannesburg area, with my boyfriend and our English bulldog named Spike. I started teaching English in 2015. The opportunity came to me when I didn't really consider teaching as a Job, nor did I know there was such a huge market for English teachers. But I love English and the job description seemed perfect for me, so I applied and fell in love! Many of my students have commented on my interest and passion when teaching them. And the last three years as a teacher have been my happiest years.

Me as a Teacher

I am often described as kind, fun, patient and passionate by students, my goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident enough to speak as much English as possible. I still offer corrections and help with grammar and pronunciation, however I take note of improvements and positive points as well, so you can know what you are doing right! Even though I have specific lessons plans, I try to make the conversations feel natural and real, so that you can not only express yourself the way you might in a real life situation, but also enjoy the experience of learning English and learning about my culture, while I learn about yours.

My lessons & teaching style

Appropriate content will be prepared for your lesson, whether you choose a pronunciation, grammar, listening or conversation class. You can also choose a open conversation class where we talk about anything you want. If you choose from my list of topics, you will be given material to help you prepare. I have experience teaching business English and can create content according to your needs as a businessperson. Are you someone who needs to prepare for an IELTS or TOEIC exam? Well I have a special class just for you, we will focus on the speaking element of the test choose, and you can ask questions and seek guidance based on the reading, writing and listening areas as well.
