🌸 About Janelle 🌸 🌐 English / Science / Social Studies teacher at international primary schools 🌐 TEFL-certified teacher (specialized in teaching English as a second language) 🌐 Qualified Reader & Scriber special education support provider 🌐 Certified Children’s Literacy Program instructor 🌐 Certified Children’s English Literature instructor 🌐 Over 3 years of online teaching experience 🌸 What Parents and Adult Students Say About Me 🌸 🙌 From Lynn (Adult): I’ve taken nearly 40 lessons with the teacher! Her handouts are always beautifully made. I really enjoy speaking lessons with Janelle. Unlike other teachers, she gives instant feedback on my speaking and tells me exactly what the differences are, helping me get rid of “Chinglish” quickly. 🙌 From James (Child): Thank goodness for Teacher Janelle! When my child first entered the international school, he couldn’t keep up at all, and I was so stressed. But after one semester of Janelle’s twice-weekly support lessons, he can now pass his tests steadily and keep up with the other kids at school! 🙌 From Tina (Adult): I used to feel nervous before class, afraid of making mistakes. But Janelle is so nice—she always starts with a warm-up chat before we get into the day’s lesson. I love this approach because it lets me talk about what happened in my day and practice real-life English. The main lessons help me learn topic vocabulary too. Janelle always prepares thoroughly. I think finding a teacher who truly cares is so important. Her dedication motivates me, and time flies during class. I look forward to every lesson! 🙌 From Emily’s Parents (Child): We really like her teaching style. She immediately corrects mistakes, identifies what the child doesn’t understand, and patiently gives repeated examples to practice. Our child has improved so fast! She is very gentle and patient—there’s no pressure, and our child actually enjoys English class even more 🌸 Adult Courses I Offer 🌸 1️⃣ TOEFL Speaking Course For: Students preparing for study abroad / those needing academic speaking skills Goals: Master strategies and high-scoring templates for both independent & integrated tasks Outcome: Give fluent, complete high-scoring responses within the time limit 2️⃣ IELTS Speaking Course For: Learners aiming for Band 6.0–7.5 / those wanting more natural expression Goals: Strengthen Part 1–3 answering techniques & extended responses Outcome: Speak more fluently and naturally; confidently handle all IELTS questions 3️⃣ TOEIC Speaking Course For: Job seekers, office workers, or anyone wanting a higher TOEIC speaking score Goals: Workplace English responses, picture description, and real-time speaking skills Outcome: Rapid score improvement and confidence in workplace conversations 4️⃣ Beginner–B1 Adult Conversation Course For: Beginners or those afraid to speak Goals: Build daily English patterns & basic fluency Outcome: Introduce yourself naturally and handle daily situations without getting stuck 5️⃣ B1–C2 Advanced Adult Conversation Course For: Learners with basic speaking skills wanting more natural, native-like fluency Goals: Improve intuition, pronunciation, long-sentence expression, and thinking speed Outcome: Smooth, natural English with the ability to engage in extended conversations 6️⃣ Business English Conversation Course For: Multinational company employees, job applicants, professionals Goals: Train meeting skills, presentations, emails, and workplace communication Outcome: Professionally express ideas and enhance workplace competitiveness 🌸 Children’s Courses I Offer 🌸 1️⃣ Kids’ Phonics Course For: Preschool to elementary students needing correct phonics foundations Goals: Master letter sounds, blending, and pronunciation rules Outcome: Independently decode words, improve reading skills and vocabulary memory 2️⃣ Cambridge Exam Courses (KET/PET/Starters/Movers/Flyers) For: Kids preparing for Cambridge exams or needing stronger English skills Goals: Familiarize with exam format; build grammar, reading & listening skills Outcome: Stronger English foundation & higher exam passing rate 3️⃣ Beginner–B1 Children’s Conversation Course For: Kids who need to start speaking from zero Goals: Build daily expression patterns & basic fluency Outcome: Introduce themselves, answer simple questions, begin communicating in English 4️⃣ A1–C2 Advanced Children’s Conversation Course For: Kids who already know basic sentence structures Goals: Expand expression, describe things, form complete sentences Outcome: Fluent, natural conversation with clear and logical English 5️⃣ International School English Support For: Students in bilingual or international schools who need academic English help Goals: Strengthen subject English (reading, writing, science, social studies) Outcome: Understand textbooks better and improve writing & academic comprehension 🎭 My teaching philosophy: 🎭 It is very important to me that each of my students really enjoy learning and bettering their English and that they end each lesson looking forward to the next.
