Passionate about learning and teaching, I enjoy encouraging and supporting others to gain confidence and develop their skills. With a strong background in public speaking and debate, as well as active participation in numerous regional competitions, I bring unique expertise to training and personal development. My passions include art, music, theatre, and the indigenous Māori culture of New Zealand, which I love sharing with my students. I value social harmony and know how to manage conflict appropriately. My goals are always to encourage people and be a strong support system to help them gain confidence in their expression, thinking, and decision-making. Seeing my students progress in English and gain more conviction in their decision-making skills brings me great joy. I always encourage students to be curious rather than critical, to keep an open mind, and to understand that knowledge is power! My main qualities are: authoritative, respectful and understanding, rigorous and punctual, sensitive and pleasant. I am dedicated to continuous improvement and to positively encouraging students' confidence in their ability to express themselves in English. I offer lessons at your home, in a cafe, library or a public place.
