I am a CELTA certified English language instructor. I help adult learners access and master the English language in a stress-free, stimulating learning environment. My goal is to help you communicate confidently and effectively in English.

I have worked with learners of a diverse set of ethnic and professional backgrounds to help them improve English speaking, reading, and writing skills. I appreciate the challenges of learning English as a non-native learner and give special care to each student's learning needs -- from absolute beginners to more advanced speakers. I make learning interesting and relatable, using a learner-centric approach.

Tutoring is extremely rewarding. I am always inspired by students' growth and personal commitment to improving over the course of our lessons.

I obtained a Certificate in English Language Training to Adults (CELTA) in 2014.

My lessons are tailored to learners needs and include:
- Public speaking
- Business and professional English
- Conversational English including idioms, phrasal verbs, American slang
- Vocabulary, synonyms, word choice, and proofreading
- Grammar, tenses, and punctuation
- Pronunciation
- Writing, sentence fluency
- Industry specific language: Sales, Marketing, Public Relations and Communications

My goal is to build your confidence in speaking, writing and understanding the English language in a transparent, stress-free and encouraging format. Reach out to me to see how we can work together!

Public Speaking

As a communications consultant, part of my job involves coaching my clients in the art of public speaking such as ahead of product launches, media activations, roundtables and other public events. I have extensive experience preparing and delivering presentations and public speaking, having pitched for new business and frequently presented to the likes of global consumer and b2b technology, automotive, pharmaceutical and infrastructure investment leaders. Additionally, having participated in PR conferences and seminars related to communications and audience engagement throughout my career, I learned the most effective tips and strategies to becoming an effective public speaker from industry leaders, which I passionately share with and use to coach my clients.

Fantastic tutor

She was great, very professional. She was very fun and creative. Understands my needs and identify my mistakes quickly. I felt very comfortable with her. I would highly recommend Mona.

Freddie, 3 lessons with Mona

knowledgeable and patient

Mona helped me in reviewing and editing an essay for my graduate school applications. She asked follow up questions relating to the program of study and my future plans to better understand how to help with my essay. After editing, she sends 2 copies. One with the track changes and another with changes already made. This really helped in easy reading. She sends the documents back quickly and her fee is very affordable. I definitely plan to use her again for future work.

Very nice tutor

We had a nice kick-off where she checked all the subjects I need to be covered and I felt very comfortable introducing myself, my job/career and my interests. If you are looking for a tutor to make you feel comfortable, whatever your language skills are I strongly recommend you Mona.

Knowledgable and Great Editor

Mona really took the time to look at my essay and give detailed feedback! I really enjoyed working with her as she constantly made sure I was satisfied with her work!
