CAE,
IELTS band 8 and other exams . I enjoy improving students confidence in speaking and their overall
English level, grammar , reading , listening etc.

I enjoy making connections with students and I feel that with English I can help them to get a better life (moving to UK or English speaking country , a promotion at work ). It is all about helping people
