Teaching Philosophy
"My teaching philosophy is built on creating a safe and supportive space where students feel empowered to speak up, make mistakes, and grow. I know that many learners carry a fear of not sounding “good enough,” especially when their professional skills far outpace their language confidence. My goal is to help them shift their focus from perfection to communication — to see English not as a barrier, but as a tool they can use with clarity and confidence. I design real-life, meaningful tasks and communication scenarios that encourage students to speak with purpose. I also believe in the power of simplicity: I take pride in explaining complex ideas in a clear, relatable way. There’s nothing better than hearing a student say, “Now I finally get it.” That’s when I know real learning is happening."
