Expert TOEFL and IELTS Preparation For Students and Professionals
Standardized tests such as the TOEFL and IELTS put a lot of pressure on candidates, but I have good news! With strong foundational skills and smart test taking strategies, you can boost your score (and your confidence!)
The way I approach TOEFL/IELTS preparation lessons depends on:
-How much time you can commit to preparation before taking the exam
-Which section or sections give you the most difficulty
-Your current level and your desired score range
-Your motivation for taking the test
After a short assessment, we'll practice (some relaxed, some timed) using both short and long versions of past exam questions. I'll teach you to recognize and use the skill sets that apply to each section and learn how they intersect. This way, you'll gain a clearer understanding of how the exam works, lower your test anxiety, and feel more confident on your exam day.
I've been helping students and professionals make these exams more manageable since 2019. My lessons are highly personalized and include written feedback and reference material for you to review and study in and out of class.

About Me
Hi, I'm Margie! I've been a certified ESOL teacher and tutor since 2018. Before deciding to work independently online, I taught in both traditional school settings and the private sector.I teach English for individuals living/working in international environments where English is required, and exam preparation (TOEFL, IELTS). I have a friendly, relaxed style in my lessons, where learners can feel comfortable speaking and asking questions.
My professional interests include etymology, medical English and language acquisition theory. Outside of work I love learning new creative hobbies and listening to music.
Like a lot of English tutors, I love to travel. I've lived in several countries and am always planning my next destination for short and long term stays.
Education
My formal qualifications include a TEFL and a BA in Political Science. I hold certificates in IELTS and TOEFL preparation and am currently working on attaining OET preparation credentials.Experience / Qualifications
I've worked as an English teacher and tutor since 2018 and genuinely enjoy helping people reach their goals with the language.Since 2018 I've been teaching and tutoring English to students across the world. I've taught in the private sector, in schools, and now privately online. Many of my students work for international companies or have relocated (or plan to relocate) for work or study and have an immediate need to improve their English. Their goals often include things like better communication for business, making social connections, or simply making day-to-day life in a new country easier.
If this describes you, I can help! I've lived internationally for much of my adult life, and I completely understand all of the wonderful experiences, as well as the challenges, that come with communicating in an international setting.
In my lessons, I help clients to learn, retain, and USE new information. When we practice grammar structures, we do it in contexts that are useful. When we learn new vocabulary, we practice by talking about interesting and memorable topics. Overall, my lessons are low-stress and conversational yet always focused on results.
If your first language isn't English, it can be difficult to express your "true self" in the language, but it gets much easier with practice and persistence! If you are an advanced level student, we'll also work on idiomatic language and cultural references. This helps boost your conversational skills and makes understanding English speakers in general a whole lot easier.
Whatever your English language goals are, send me a message, and I'll be happy to assist. We'll have a friendly chat about how I can best help you, and I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Fawzi
French teacher - Passing the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Private preparation sessions | [IN LINE]
I am Fawzi, a French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2012.
I offer specific sessions to meet your needs and objectives to pass your DELF (Diploma in French Language Studies) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I accompany many interested parties of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2012; for me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a key objective in the life of ambitious people.
I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English and a little Turkish. I explain my lessons in French, Arabic or Spanish, depending on your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your shortcomings and monitor your progress.
--------------------------------------
Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF:
The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles.
--------------------------------------
Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level?
Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation.
I am available !

Learn IELTS-Toeic-Business- Conversational English- and English for Teens from an expert teacher
Having taught in Vietnam 🇻🇳 for 6 years in English centers, international schools, visa interview preparation, and IELTS prep classes has shown me the importance of learning how each student learn is different. And this experience has made me a very dynamic tutor with very satisfied students!
Whether you need to pass a visa interview to an English-speaking country, become IELTS or TOEIC certified, or learn English for business or pleasure- I have developed a method to personally improve my students’ ability to be confident in English!
I have proven to effectively increase students’ abilities in
-Reading
-Writing
-Listening
-Speaking
-Pronunciation
-Conversation (business and casual)
As someone who studies languages (German, Spanish, Latin, Vietnamese) I know how frustrating it is! But it is possible once you are aware of your strengths and weaknesses and guide you.
As an American, I have a very clear accent. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in International Relations with a minor in teaching from Pennsylvania State University as well as a TESOL (international teaching certificate) from Oxford. I have a Vietnamese residency.
After meeting my student I like to make a personalized course designed to help reach the goals that you wish you reach. I spend a lot of time utilizing different materials (mock tests, pronunciation correction plans, as well as quizzes to track progress). I want my students to study hard but have fun while doing so! 😃
It gives me satisfaction to see my students learn English. I hope you can be one of my students so you can reach your goals!

Biology, physics, chemistry, math = easy for everyone
Science subjects have always posed problems for some students and are sometimes seen as “difficult”
But in reality, the way of teaching and explaining plays a decisive role in learning.
You have to go step by step, using examples and analogies to untangle certain complexities and be able to get to the bottom of the problem to finally have fun.
It is the goal and the duty that I will try to establish

English classes (Beginner to Advanced) - Conversation, Perfecting the language, Professional English
I am a native English and Italian speaker, and I have worked as a tutor and language teacher over the past ten years, while also studying History and Cultural Heritage. My experience includes teaching English language courses at different levels, preparing for language exams, conversation practice, as well as text translation and correction. My past customers range from teenage and adult students, to young and older professionals.
As an instructor and teacher, I offer:
• Lessons at all levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced.
• A multi-faceted approach, which covers conversation practice, text comprehension, grammar, writing, as well as academic and professional vocabulary.
• Preparation for language tests: FCE and CAE Cambridge tests, IELTS.
• Tutoring high school students.
• Training in Professional/Business English.
• Conversation practice (tailored to the needs of the student).
• Text translation and proofreading.
Approach - I always encourage the student to develop a personal connection to the language by exploring personal interests in English. In my lessons, I favour a flexible approach, which uses conversation, texts, videos and specific content to elicit grammar rules and vocabulary. When necessary, the lesson will be more traditionally focused on grammar rules and correct use of the language. This positive and mixed approach, along with regular practice, will definitely improve your English and keep it active in the long term.
