My name is Tasneem, and I'm originally from Cape Town, South Africa. I now live in London, United Kingdom.
I have been teaching English online since 2021 and have enjoyed meeting students from many different countries and cultures. Before becoming an English tutor, I spent over 16 years working in administration, finance, customer service, and business support. Those experiences taught me the importance of clear communication, patience, and building positive relationships—skills that I now bring to every lesson.
I hold a 120-hour Advanced TEFL Certificate and enjoy helping students become more confident English speakers. My lessons are relaxed, friendly, and focused on natural conversation. I understand that speaking a new language can feel intimidating, so I create a comfortable environment where you can speak freely, make mistakes, and learn at your own pace.
I especially enjoy conversational English because every lesson is different. We can talk about travel, food, culture, current events, hobbies, work, daily life, or any topic that interests you. My goal is to help you sound more natural, expand your vocabulary, improve your pronunciation, and gain confidence in everyday conversations.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, travelling, discovering new cafés, spending time with family and friends, and learning about different cultures. Living in both South Africa and the UK has given me the opportunity to meet people from many backgrounds, and I genuinely enjoy hearing my students' stories and experiences.
I believe the best lessons are:
Relaxed and enjoyable
Student-centred
Practical and relevant to your daily life
Focused on real conversation
Encouraging and confidence-building
Create a welcoming and supportive learning environment.
Help you speak English more naturally and confidently.
Improve your fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, and listening skills.
Tailor each lesson to your interests, goals, and English level.
Have meaningful conversations while learning about each other's cultures.
Give helpful feedback so you can continue improving after every lesson.
Whether you're learning English for travel, work, studies, or simply because you enjoy meeting new people, I'd love to help you on your language journey.
I look forward to meeting you and having our first conversation!
