About Rachel
Hello! My name is Rachel Funnell, and I am a TEFL-certified English tutor with two years of teaching experience. I am currently in my third year of a BA in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics, which has strengthened my critical thinking, communication, and analytical skills. I am passionate about helping students, especially beginners, feel confident and supported as they learn English.
I have experience teaching children aged 3 to 8 at Roselle Pre Primary, covering subjects such as English, Math, Art, and Physical Education. This experience helped me develop patience, adaptability, and a structured approach to teaching that works for learners of all levels.
My lessons are designed to be engaging, fun, and tailored to your individual pace. I specialize in helping beginners build strong foundations in speaking, listening, vocabulary, and grammar, using clear explanations, interactive exercises, and positive reinforcement. I create a welcoming and supportive atmosphere so that students feel comfortable practicing and making progress.
What sets me apart is my ability to combine professionalism with a friendly, encouraging, and sometimes witty approach—making lessons enjoyable while still focused on results. My goal is to help you gain confidence in English, track your progress, and enjoy the learning journey every step of the way.
If you are ready to improve your English in a supportive, structured, and positive environment, book your first lesson with me today and start your journey with confidence!

My teaching methodology is student-centered, structured, and adaptable, designed to make learning English enjoyable, effective, and confidence-building. I focus on creating a supportive atmosphere where students feel comfortable practicing, asking questions, and making mistakes—because that’s how real progress happens. I combine clear explanations with interactive exercises, games, and conversation practice, keeping lessons engaging while reinforcing vocabulary, grammar, listening, and speaking skills.
I am proficient in English and teach exclusively in this language, ensuring immersion and maximum exposure. What makes me unique as a teacher is my ability to combine patience, wit, and a positive attitude with a structured approach, creating lessons that are not only productive but also fun and memorable.
In a typical lesson with me, students can expect a warm welcome, a clear learning plan tailored to their individual pace, interactive activities, guided practice, and plenty of encouragement. I also provide feedback and track progress so students can see tangible improvements over time.
My lessons are aimed primarily at beginners and early-intermediate learners, especially those who want to build a strong foundation in English, improve conversational skills, or prepare for exams such as IELTS. I work well with learners of all ages who are motivated to learn and appreciate a fun, supportive, and positive learning environment.
