My Summary
About Me
Dear Parents,
Thank you for coming to my page.
I am an MA TESOL student at the University of Essex with a passion for teaching English and helping children learn with confidence.
I’m responsible, caring, and committed to creating fun, supportive lessons tailored to each learner’s needs. I can also support primary-level Math.
My Experience
I have over five years of experience teaching English to children and teenagers across a range of ages and proficiency levels. I’ve worked in both classroom environments and one-on-one settings, delivering personalized lessons that cater to each learner’s individual needs. My teaching has included general English, primary-level Maths, and support for students with special educational needs such as ADHD. I always strive to create a positive, supportive learning atmosphere where students feel safe, motivated, and encouraged to take risks. I carefully adapt my methods and materials to match each child’s learning style and pace, using interactive, hands-on activities to boost their engagement, build foundational skills, and strengthen their confidence in using the language.
My Qualifications
MA TESOL - University of Essex
Bachelor of English
Certificate of Pedagogical Training
A TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) qualification

Thao is the most patient person I know, Thao is enthusiastic, and sweet with my baby - she cries when Thao leaves because of the special bond they’ve created. We felt very comfortable leaving our baby with her, and hope to keep her in our lives for a long time as my baby loves her! She was excellent. Very warm and set our hearts at ease the minute she walked in the door.
