Palesa Rakosa

Hello! My name is Palesa, and I’m from South Africa. I hold a bachelor’s degree in law and a 120-hour TEFL certificate. With three years of teaching experience, both online and offline, I’ve had the pleasure of helping students of all ages improve their English skills. When I'm not teaching, I love watching TV series, especially those that dive deep into character development and storytelling, like "All American". This hobby allows me to stay connected with modern language and culture, which I bring into my lessons to keep them relevant and engaging. I also enjoy reading and exploring new cultures, which helps me connect with students from diverse backgrounds. As a certified ESL teacher with 3 years teaching experience, I bring a professional, warm, and flexible approach to every class. I believe in being well-prepared and organised, tailoring each lesson to meet the unique goals and needs of my students. In my teaching, I have experience teaching students from beginner to advanced levels, therefore tailoring lessons to meet their unique needs and goals through the use of a combination of different methods to ensure the best learning experience. My expertise encompasses lesson planning, grammatical awareness, controlled practice with games, and the integration of functional language into my teaching methods. These skills were refined through my TEFL certification, which provided me with a comprehensive understanding of teaching English as a foreign language. In my online English lessons, I create a dynamic, interactive environment tailored to your goals. Whether you're a beginner or advanced learner, my lessons ensure measurable progress. My teaching style is student-centered, focusing on building your confidence through supportive and engaging sessions. I emphasize communication, using real-life topics to help you speak English comfortably in everyday situations. I customize each lesson to match your learning style and needs, incorporating fun activities like role-plays and games to keep learning enjoyable. I provide constructive feedback, helping you understand mistakes and grow with each session. With 3 years of experience and a focus on Communicative Language Teaching, I’m dedicated to helping you improve your English skills. Let’s work together to achieve your language goals.
