Hello, my name is Therese.
I was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa. If you don't know where that is I am sure you must have heard of or seen pictures of Table Mountain which is the biggest landmark in Cape Town.
A little about myself personally - I love going to markets and Asian festivals in my spare time. I have recently attended Japan Day as well as a Korean festival and a Taiwanese festival. I think what attracts me is learning about different cultures - the Asian ones fascinate me. I love hearing the Asian languages as well as the most delicious selection of food. There are even typical Asian activities to enjoy while you participate in them.
I am looking forward to more of that in my country.
I have a passion for teaching English, as well as French. I have 42 years' teaching experience, having worked at primary and high schools as well as at a college. I have a BA degree, majoring in English and French, as well as a teaching diploma and the TEFL level 5 diploma.
I enjoy working with people from different cultures and I am able to offer English to ALL levels of students. I can offer French to beginner and intermediate students. Students for French lessons need to know English as my explanations will be in English.
My teaching style is based on the students' needs and interests and my lessons will fit what they are hoping to learn.
My students will experience engaging, interesting and creative lessons and they will gain a sense of achievement. I enjoy watching them become more confident as they progress.
If you feel I can help you with your language learning, you can request a lesson.
