Teacher Owen

Hello! I'm Owen, a 26-year-old certified English tutor living in South Africa. With a passion for all things English, I specialize in various forms of English for people who aim to improve their conversational English or aim to nail any English Exam. Whether you're looking to enhance your everyday communication skills, prepare for an exam, or improve your professional language abilities, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Outside of teaching, I enjoy exploring new cultures, staying active with outdoor activities, and diving into a good book. My lessons are tailored to meet your unique needs, ensuring that you not only learn but also enjoy the process. I hold a TEFL certificate and a BA in Accounting. My teaching experience spans both adults and young learners. I’ve taught in-person and online, including helping students of all age groups improve their spoken and written English as well as students pass their English exams. Additionally, I have experience teaching young kids in Sunday schools. My work is complemented by positive testimonials from satisfied students. In my lessons, students can expect a personalized approach tailored to their unique needs and goals. I focus on interactive and engaging sessions that cover practical language skills—speaking, listening, reading, and writing. I use a practical approach that includes starting with casual conversation to build comfort, focusing on everyday vocabulary and phrases, and practicing through role-playing real-life scenarios. I incorporate listening exercises, provide constructive feedback, and encourage interaction with native speakers. Using authentic materials like news articles and podcasts, I help students gain confidence and fluency in everyday conversations I use creative methods to make learning enjoyable. Overall, I aim to create a supportive environment where students can confidently improve and succeed.
