Bio:

Hi, I'm Elsje! I'm a South African, who grew up abroad. I’m flexible and open-minded promoting an inclusive and active learning environment. I’ve had the privilege to pursue studies abroad which exposed me to various cultures, languages, learning environments, and learning styles. With this, I wish to share my experiences and gained wisdom with my students. My passion for serving and teaching others as I have become entrenched in community service enjoying helping others and seeing them grow.

My teaching methodology:
General English (All the aspects of the language) ~ All levels ~ Conversational English (Speaking and vocabulary) - All levels English for traveling: speaking, vocabulary, and role play (i.e. going to the airport, checking into a hotel, ordering at a cafe ...etc.) ~ All levels ~ Exam prep - All levels Business English (Business vocabulary, businesses activities, and role-playing activities.) - Intermediate and above
My teaching background:

I have primarily taught individuals of school-going age while specializing in reading, hereby focusing on vocabulary and sentence structure. Additionally, I have spent ample time helping students find their study method, prepare for exams and write motivational letters for future studies. I have enjoyed teaching students how to proofread, condense, and simplify report writing in various fields of study.

My background outside of teaching:

I have had the privilege to attend multiple IB (International Baccalaureate) schools, hereby able to assist any students pursuing the IB curriculum. I have lived in various countries and have ample traveling experience so allow me to help you prepare for a trip abroad or to learn more about the world we live in. I have pursued tertiary education in the field of Public Health (Bsc) and currently pursuing studies in visual communication and design. I am willing to learn and embark on a learning journey with you. Let me know what I can do to help you achieve your goals.
