Hi there!

I'm Hayley Ward-Able, and I live in sunny South Africa!

When I am not teaching, I like to take advantage of the warm climate we enjoy in my country. You will find me mostly outdoors, doing some gardening, bird watching or walking and swimming at the beach. When the weather is milder, I like to snuggle up and read a good book, play cards with family or listen to music.

Teaching English, though, is my happy place. I absolutely love the language, and want to share this knowledge with my students! There is nothing more satisfying to me, than looking back and seeing how much my students have progressed and reached their goals. I see teaching as an opportunity for me to have a positive impact on people's lives now and in the future.

I have learnt a new language myself, so I understand the difficulties and challenges students face. This is why I try to put my students at ease to lessen their anxiety. I don't have a set agenda of how I will teach, but rather patiently adapt my teaching to each individual's needs. 

My strengths are correcting pronunciation, intonation and grammar. I also enjoy helping students who would like to improve their reading fluency, writing accuracy and dialogue skills.

Let the fun begin! I can't wait to meet you!
