Mavis Madaure Madaure

I am a TEFL/TESOL-qualified English teacher with experience teaching adult learners, professionals, and young people from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. My background includes supporting learners to improve general English, conversational fluency, workplace communication, interview preparation, and academic or professional writing. I am experienced in assessing learners’ needs and designing lessons that are aligned to their goals, levels, and learning pace.

My teaching approach is learner-centred, practical, and highly interactive. I use communicative language teaching methods that prioritize speaking, listening, and real-life application, while also strengthening grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and confidence. Lessons are structured but flexible, typically combining warm-up activities, guided input, practical exercises, role plays, and reflection. I use real-world materials such as articles, videos, and workplace scenarios to make learning relevant and engaging.

I create a supportive and inclusive learning environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and actively participating. I adapt my teaching style to suit different learning preferences and provide continuous feedback to track progress and motivate learners. My goal is to help students communicate clearly, confidently, and effectively in English for their personal, academic, and professional lives.
