  • Description

    Description

    My name is Dany and I am an English teacher from Indonesia. I received my master's degree in TESOL from The University of Warwick, UK in 2023. Now I live in Kendari, South East Sulawesi running my own English school.

    This is an English school located in Kendari, South East Sulawesi, Indonesia. We offer English classes for children, teenagers and adults. Our services range from general English, English for business, and English tests preparation (IELTS and TOEFL). Our school is located in the heart of the city, with a great access to nearby beaches and diving spots. Kendari is also the hub to visit other tourist destinations such as Buton and Wakatobi.

    We want to give an unforgettable experience to our students who learn English by giving them access to native speakers or people who speak good English from different nationalities for teaching and learning process. On the other hand, we want to promote our culture to foreigners (and learn theirs too) so that we will have a better understanding for both with the hope to make a better world community.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Workawayers will have the chance to learn how to interact with our teachers and our students. Our program ranges from young learners to adults. We provide general English classes and English proficiency tests such as TOEFL and IELTS. We also provide scholarship preparation program for those who wish to study abroad.

    Workawayers will learn how to manage the students in terms of communicating with foreigners which is a challenge because English is still considered foreign language in Indonesia. Indonesians speak Indonesian plus their local language. We can provide trainings in teaching if Workawayers don't come from teaching background.

    We want Workawayers who speak good English to teach and interact with our students.

In addition, the Workawayers might be asked to provide trainings for the teachers to upgrade their teaching skills.
