Hello and welcome! I’m Amina, a certified English teacher with experience teaching children, teenagers, and adults, both online and in person. I hold a BA in English Linguistics, TEFL and TESOL certifications, and additional training in instructional design from the University of Illinois, which enables me to structure lessons that are clear, engaging, and tailored to each student’s needs. I have also taught in a school setting, working with children and teens aged 6 to 16, as well as privately online. My lessons are friendly, calm, and encouraging, while still being results-oriented. I believe students learn best when they feel safe, understood, and gently challenged. Whether your goal is to improve general English, gain confidence in conversation, or support school learning, I adapt each lesson to your level, pace, and personality. For younger learners, lessons are interactive and structured, helping them build strong foundations. For teens and adults, I focus on clarity, confidence, and practical communication. Learning English doesn’t have to feel stressful. With the right guidance, it can feel natural and motivating.
