Build Confidence in English | CELTA-Certified American English Teacher

Do you understand English fairly well but still find it difficult to speak confidently?

I’m a CELTA-certified American English teacher who works with adults at A2 level and above. My lessons are practical, supportive, and focused on helping you use English more naturally in real-life situations.

Maybe you understand what people are saying but struggle to respond quickly. Maybe you know the grammar but aren’t always sure how to use it in conversation. Or maybe you simply want to feel more comfortable and confident when speaking English.

We can work on the areas that matter most to you, including:

• Speaking more confidently and fluently
• Finding the right words when you need them
• Improving pronunciation and natural rhythm
• Learning useful everyday expressions and collocations
• Understanding how native speakers actually use English
• Strengthening grammar and vocabulary
• Improving your written English when you need it
• Communicating more naturally in everyday or professional situations

Lessons are tailored to your goals and the areas where you need the most practice. We might work with conversation, real-life situations, roleplays, pronunciation practice, vocabulary, grammar, or short texts and other materials. The goal is not simply to study English, but to become more comfortable using it.

I also have 18 years of professional experience as a writer and fiction editor, along with an MA and MFA in writing. This gives me a strong background in helping people express their ideas clearly and effectively in English.

Whether you’re learning English for everyday life, travel, work, or personal goals, we’ll build your skills step by step—with clear feedback, practical practice, and plenty of opportunities to use the English you’re learning.

If you already understand quite a bit of English but want to speak with greater confidence and naturalness, I’d be happy to help.
