I have taught English in the classroom and as a private tutor for over two years. Most of my experience is in teaching children (4 - 16 years old) from non-English speaking countries. I am extremely patient and reassuring to underconfident students and can help students to feel at home with the English Language. I always prepare interesting and educational lessons to suit the student's needs.

I am an experienced personal tutor used to working with adults and children of all levels. I have worked with children with special needs and learning difficulties, children and adults seeking to improve their general English skills, and those wishing to learn English as a second language. I am patient and diligent in my approach to teaching and will provide carefully prepared lessons and tasks according to each student's individual needs.

I am a certified ESL Tutor with over nine years of experience. I meet my students in one to one private classes at my own professional business office, located in the heart of Los Angeles, near bus-lines and shopping centers. I have helped many students pass the Speaking and Overall portions of the IELTS and IBT TOEFL.

I am patient and experienced with tutoring children and youth.
I can tutor IB specific courses
I grew up in Canada and am now at NUS business school

Hi, my name is Kirsten.

I have extensive experience teaching students of varying levels from prep through to 70 year olds. I have a BA in English Literature and Sociology from Victoria University, and a teaching qualification from Cambridge University (CELTA). I am fluent in Portuguese and speak conversational Spanish and Japanese.

I have been teaching English for 9 years. I taught in Brazil and Japan for five years and am now living and working in Melbourne. I teach at a university here in Melbourne - teaching IELTS and academic English. I have extensive experience with teaching writing, reading, speaking and listening. I also teach IELTS classes at the university so I'm familiar with all of the requirements for passing this exam.
