Tutor Information

About

I am Native English speaking Teacher from South Africa who currently resides in the United States. I use fun and artistic teaching methods such as singing, playing games, drawing and painting in my lessons. I am a qualified Set Designer and Early Childhood development teacher who prides themselves in incorporating artistic skills into English learning. I believe that art and education should always go hand-in-hand to allow for a fun and expressive learning experience.
