About Me

Tanya

Hi, I’m Tanya. I’m the person behind Find Your English Voice.

I’ve been teaching English in private European schools and online since 2011, helping adults from all over the world speak more clearly, confidently, and naturally. Most of the people I work with already know quite a lot of English; they just want to feel more relaxed using it. Whether it’s chatting in meetings, preparing for a presentation, or simply sounding more like yourself when you speak, I’m here to help.

Before I started teaching full-time, I worked as a professional singer and trained in advanced counselling skills, both of which shape how I teach today. I know what it’s like to feel nervous before speaking, especially in public and I know how powerful it is to finally feel at ease using your voice. That’s why I specialise in helping professionals who want to stop overthinking and feel more confident speaking English.

At Find Your English Voice, I offer

I have a clear British English accent and a warm, encouraging style.

I create an environment where it’s okay to make mistakes, try things out, and grow into your English voice one step at a time.

Improving your English takes work, but you won’t be doing it alone. If you’re tired of second-guessing yourself or feeling like your English isn’t quite the real you, I’d love to help.

I’m CELTA-qualified, trained in advanced RSA counselling skills, and have completed specialist training in Business English through Oxford TEFL. I’m also the author of English ESL Small Talk — a practical guide to sounding more natural in real conversations, based on years of helping professionals feel more confident in English.
