About Maya
I am a CELTA-qualified ESL teacher with a degree in English Language and Literature and over four years of teaching experience. I work with learners who want to improve their English for everyday life, work, travel, or simply to feel more confident when speaking.
My lessons are practical, supportive, and tailored to each student’s level and goals. I focus on helping students speak more naturally, improve their grammar and vocabulary, and become more comfortable using English in real conversations.
I believe learning English should feel encouraging rather than stressful. I create a relaxed learning environment where students can make mistakes, ask questions, practise freely, and gradually build confidence.
Whether you want to improve your speaking, strengthen your grammar, expand your vocabulary, or become more fluent in everyday English, I will adapt the lessons to help you make steady and meaningful progress.

My lessons are one hour long and carefully structured to make learning both engaging and effective. Each lesson usually focuses on one or two key language skills, such as speaking, listening, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, or reading, allowing students to practise each area thoroughly without feeling overwhelmed.
Lessons are student-centred and tailored to the learner’s level, goals, and interests. I use a variety of activities, including real-life conversations, role plays, listening exercises, guided speaking practice, reading tasks, vocabulary work, and practical grammar activities.
A typical lesson begins with a short warm-up and review, followed by the main language focus. Students then practise the target skill through structured activities before using it more independently in conversation or a practical task.
My main goal is to help students use English confidently in real situations, rather than simply memorising rules. I encourage students to speak as much as possible and create a supportive environment where they can make mistakes, ask questions, and develop their fluency naturally.

Maya taught me Arabic, and she is a patient, encouraging teacher who makes every lesson clear and welcoming. She breaks difficult topics into small steps, explains things in a way that sticks, and adapts to your level and goals. I always left her lessons feeling more confident than when I started. I recommend her to anyone who wants to learn Arabic with a teacher who truly cares about their progress.
An excellent tutor who makes learning English both enjoyable and effective. She is supportive, attentive, and always ensures I fully understand each lesson. Her teaching style is clear and motivating, helping me improve quickly. I truly appreciate her dedication and highly recommend her classes.
Maya is one of my classmates back in college. She’s also a colleague of mine in an English teaching center. She has helped me a lot with my progress for she has been the one in charge of my training.
Maya has a very nice way of explaining things and making them so much easier for everyone to understand that in college when I wouldn’t understand something a professor taught I would go to Maya. She would make it so much easier, and she would with whatever you need her help with.
She is a tutor I would recommend for you easily without hesitation.
If you are looking for progress, you have found it..!Maya is an exceptional teacher whose impact goes far beyond traditional lessons. I was introduced to her through friends in Dubai who achieved remarkable progress with her, and after my own experience, I fully understand why she is so highly recommended.
From the very first session, she creates a supportive yet challenging environment that naturally builds confidence. Her teaching is structured, precise, and genuinely effective — she doesn’t just teach, she develops real skills.
I highly recommend Maya to anyone serious about meaningful progress. She is professional, dedicated, and truly impactful.Mrs. Maya is one of the best teachers my children have had. My kids have really benefited from learning with her, and I have seen a clear difference in their confidence and English level. She is very organised, patient, and professional, and her teaching style is calm, supportive, and effective. She knows how to work with children in a way that makes them feel comfortable, motivated, and ready to learn. What I appreciate most is that she genuinely cares about her students and always tries to bring out the best in them. I highly recommend Mrs. Maya to any parent looking for a dedicated and wonderful English teacher for their children.
