About me
Hi there! 👋 I’m Dania from the Philippines!
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communication and a TESOL certification, and I’ve also worked as a curriculum developer.
I’m currently living and teaching in Japan, and I love making lessons fun, interactive, and focused on your goals.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy coffee shop hopping ☕, traveling ✈️, and learning about different cultures.
I have almost 10 years of teaching experience with students of all ages, from babies to senior adults, and from countries like China, Japan, Korea, Spain, and Italy. I’ve taught Business English, English for Kids, Conversational English, Travel English, and more.
My lessons are interactive, encouraging, and tailored to your goals, combining conversation, games, and real-life examples so learning English is fun and practical.
Book your first lesson with me, and let’s start your journey to speaking English confidently and comfortably!

Learning with Dania has truly been a wonderful journey. We have had more than 15 lessons together, and it has always been a pleasure working with her. She has a very neutral English accent and expresses herself clearly and coherently. Dania is also very funny, patient, and incredibly supportive. The lessons were highly tailored to my specific needs, as my goal was to practice English rather than learn it from scratch. I already had an advanced level and wanted to become more familiar with the IELTS exam requirements. Dania consistently provided useful materials for our classes and helped me improve my speaking skills, as well as my confidence and motivation. She also assigned writing homework and always provided detailed feedback and valuable suggestions for improvement. Overall, she is an excellent teacher, and I highly recommend learning with her.

We’re very happy with our daughter’s progress after almost a month of learning with Dania. She is patient, encouraging, and creates a fun, engaging environment that helps our daughter feel comfortable speaking English. We’ve noticed that my daughter is more confident, more focused in class, and starting to speak more naturally. We truly appreciate her dedication and highly recommend her as a supportive and caring tutor.
