Welcome. I’m Melissa — a CELTA Pass A certified English teacher with almost 10 years of experience at a leading London language school.
I bring together mindful awareness, compassionate coaching, and real-world experience from 15 years in global business management. But what truly sets my teaching apart is my heart-led, kindful approach.
​​
What is Kindful English?
Kindful English blends mindfulness, kindness, and gratitude into the way you learn—creating a space where you can feel safe, supported, and understood.
Learning a new language can make you feel vulnerable and many students suffer with language anxiety.
That’s why I focus not only on what you learn, but how you feel while learning.​
With each lesson, you’ll be supported to:
-
Feel calm and present, using gentle mindfulness practices
-
Build confidence by releasing self-judgment and speaking with self-compassion
-
Celebrate progress with gratitude, even in the smallest steps
-
Stay focused and inspired through personalised coaching and encouragement
This is English learning that nurtures both your personal growth and your well-being.
​
My Holistic Teaching Helps You:
Reduce language anxiety
Improve clarity and focus
Build confidence from the inside out
Stay motivated with lessons tailored to you
Plus, with 15+ years in global business, I offer Business English designed for presentations, meetings, interviews, and workplace success.​​​
