About Vi
I’m an ESL tutor with a strong background in English and communication. I’ve been a student-journalist for over 10 years, mainly focused in News, Broadcast, and Sports, and I’m a recipient of a Special Citation in English for Academic Excellence.
As a public speaker, I’ve competed in Impromptu Speech and regularly host school and community events. This experience helps me teach students how to speak clearly, think on their feet, and gain confidence using English in real conversations.
I work with kids and teens ages 4–18, from beginners to advanced learners. My classes are structured but fun — we use games, stories, and real-life topics to build speaking, reading, and writing skills.
My goal is simple: help students stop translating in their heads and start expressing themselves in English naturally.
