Kishori Balliammanda

Hello! I'm Dr. Kishori, an English educator with a Ph.D. from the UK, a Master's degree in English, TEFL certification, and extensive experience teaching learners from diverse cultural and professional backgrounds.
My lessons are student-centered, activity-oriented, and tailored to your goals. Whether you want to improve your speaking confidence, strengthen your grammar and vocabulary, prepare for IELTS, TOEFL, or OET, or develop Academic, Medical, or Professional English, I'll create practical lessons that help you use English confidently in real-life situations.
Students describe me as friendly, understanding, empathetic, and supportive. I value respect, integrity, and an inclusive, secular learning environment where you can ask questions, make mistakes, and learn with confidence.
Outside teaching, I enjoy travelling, photography, gardening, and spending time with animals—especially dogs. I love meeting people from different cultures and bringing meaningful conversations into the classroom.
Our lessons will be conducted in English to maximize your progress, but if it reassures you, I'm also fluent in Hindi, Kannada, and Urdu, and I understand the challenges multilingual learners may face.
I look forward to helping you achieve your English goals with engaging, personalized lessons. See you in class!
