I know that teaching English can transform lives.

Not just by raising grades or checking boxes, but by helping students discover confidence, clarity, and purpose — and by helping teachers reclaim their time, energy, and passion.

I’ve spent the last 17 years in the classroom, teaching over 2,500 students. I’ve lived the late nights, the marking piles, the “why isn’t this working?” moments. I’ve been through the struggles myself, and I’ve come out stronger — not because it was easy, but because I learned how to teach smarter, not harder.

What keeps me passionate after all these years is the same thing that drew me to teaching in the first place: knowing that, as teachers, we hold a student’s future in our hands.

A good teacher can change the trajectory of a young person’s life. I know, because other teachers changed mine.

That’s why I’m here — to transform students’ success and to support other teachers in the work that matters most.
