About Rachel
Many learners struggle to bridge the gap between basic vocabulary and complex exam requirements like IELTS or TOEFL. You are likely frustrated by standard textbooks that ignore your specific cognitive needs or pace.
These sessions leverage my 15 years of experience to prioritize reading comprehension and targeted editing.

Proofreading techniques and exam strategies form the core of our time together to ensure you make tangible progress.

I find that simplifying the process often yields the best results for my students. I look forward to seeing how your linguistic journey unfolds.
