✨8 weeks remaining in 2026! Give your language skills a BOOST! Hello! I’m Ms. Chelsea, your friendly English guide from Illinois, USA. I specialize in helping kids and teens blossom in English —whether you’re just starting or want to speak with confidence on your next adventure. I also work with businessmen and businesswomen. My lessons are inspired by curiosity and creativity, often leaving the curriculum to deep-dive into interesting topics. I believe learning should be joyful, engaging, and memorable. If you’re ready to grow your English skills in a supportive space, I’m here to help you shine! I frequently create customized lesson plans for my students. For example, I helped a pilot to ace his interview and get the job by role-playing the interview process and polishing his responses. Recently, I helped a student who now lives in the US to learn adjectives to describe how people look and their personality. We brought it to life by describing her family and the students and teachers in her school. I try to make lessons relatable to each student and give you exercises you can use in real life. Step away from the textbook! Let's swim together in the interesting sea of American English taught by a native speaker.

    I find my lessons with Annette extremely useful for practising the speaking component of the OET. We manage to complete two scenarios in half an hour, and I can see that I am gradually improving over time. I really enjoy working with her, and I appreciate that she often extends the lesson by a few minutes to allow us to finish reviewing the corrections or to ask me whether I need any further advice on how to improve my OET performance.

    Under Naphan’s guidance, I learned how to speak English in a relaxed way—no rush, no pressure, no particular goal. Just chatting, going wherever the conversation takes us, and talking about whatever comes to mind. And suddenly, I realized I could speak more than I ever thought I could. I’ve come to understand that my problem was never really my mouth. It was my mindset. The more relaxed I am, the more naturally the words flow. Sometimes, the less you try to achieve, the more you gain. Thank you Naphan.

    I started Business English lessons with Joanna in October through the “Let’s Talk Corporate” programme, and the course has been tailored to my job from the very first session. She took the time to understand my daily work as a database engineer in the utilities sector, then built a twelve unit course around real topics such as metering applications, Oracle PL/SQL, billing logic and system architecture. Every lesson comes with conversation cards featuring realistic role plays between colleagues, with key grammar structures highlighted in context, vocabulary lists translated into Italian and useful professional phrases. A checklist of phrases to use during each session keeps the practice focused and measurable. Joanna is receptive, encouraging and always open to feedback, adapting the lessons whenever I suggest improvements. I would highly recommend her to any professional looking for Business English that is truly relevant to their work.
