About Me

NOTE TO STUDENTS: Please book classes at least a week in advance to avoid disappointment.
Hi there! My name is Kati. I am a native English speaker and I live in sunny South Africa. I have two Economics degrees, and I am a professional English teacher.
Here are some fun facts about me - I love being outdoors, with my friends and family. I am very passionate about food, and I love going to the beach with my friends.
Me as a Teacher
I am a confident person; my experience has been in tutoring several school subjects for the last 5 years. I also have a TEFL qualification. My strengths are being disciplined, prepared, being friendly with students having an excellent environment for learning.
I specialize in teaching IELTS Academic and IELTS General, I have been working for Delfin English school doing various intensive IELTS prep classes.
As a teacher, I am very easy going and aim to work with students depending on their various needs. I can give students homework if necessary. My main focus when teaching is to have my students speak where possible, as I feel this is key to learning any language more proficiently.
My lessons & teaching style
For the first lesson, I'd like to get a feel for your level of English and better understand your reasons and goals in learning English
During my lessons, we can expand your vocabulary by talking about a variety of interesting and exciting topics. I will also make sure to correct all of your mistakes, as we learn together by exchanging fun and interesting ideas. I have also helped a number of students complete their homework. I have taught people of all ages, and from all around the world. I absolutely love what I do!

I had many classes with Kati and I enjoyed all of them! She was great at helping me to get prepared for my IELTS Speaking, and I scored 7.0. She also edited my writings for university application. I’m very grateful 😊

The best lesson with the best teacher I have ever had ;-)
Kati is super lovely, funny, positive, supporting tutor. I enjoyed our lesson so much! I'll definitely book another lesson with this awesome tutor - that's without a doubt. Whoever wants to have a great lesson with Kati whose accent is just SPECTACULAR, don't wait even a minute! <3 It was pleasure to have a lesson with you. Loved it!

Look no further, Kati is the BEST teacher ever! I’ve had a few teachers on italki and she is incredible. My English has improved so much over the last few months with her. I am fully prepared for my up coming IELTS exam. I HIGHLY recommend having classes with Kati, she is patient and has the best accent! She explains things slowly, and clearly. All her lessons are so fun, and the time flies by so quickly. She really makes learning fun. 😬 Thank you for everything, Kati!
