Do you want to develop your conversation skills? Let me help! I'm Rose, a "kiwi" from New Zealand and a qualified and experienced English language teacher. I have plenty of tips to help you improve your English.
First, let me tell you a little bit about me…
I am a friendly, supportive and organized teacher. I have years of experience learning languages and living, working and travelling overseas. I lived in Japan for 2 years, and then in Myanmar for 2 months, and I've also been to a couple of other countries for a week or two as well. Each experience has taught me a lot about other countries, cultures and languages and helped me to develop my skillset as a teacher. I also have sound knowledge in Second Language Education. Through my tertiary studies I've done lots of research on the best ways to teach and learn languages. My classes make use of both my formal training and my personal experiences. This way, I can teach teach highly effective lessons.
