Leyla El-Ashry - English Tutor

Introduction

My name is Leyla El-Ashry, and I am a TEFL-certified educator with over 12 years of experience in teaching English as a foreign language. In this position, I have worked with an internationally diverse range of students and institutions. My roles have consistently focused on delivering dynamic, innovative, and culturally sensitive teaching strategies that inspire and motivate students to achieve their language goals.

As an experienced English Language and Literature teacher, I have received exceptional reviews for my ability to design tailored lesson plans and support students in their preparation for standardized language exams such as TOEFL, IELTS, KET, PET, and CPE. I am deeply committed to fostering my students' progress and creating an engaging learning environment that helps them succeed academically and personally.

In addition to my teaching experience, I have worked as a research mentor for high school students aspiring to gain admission into Ivy League universities. This has involved guiding students through research projects, helping them develop critical thinking skills, and preparing them for the rigorous demands of higher education. My work in educational startups has afforded me unique insights into supporting ambitious learners on their academic journeys.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy with Honours and a Master of Divinity from Harvard University, which have enriched my approach to teaching and mentoring by instilling a deep appreciation for inquiry and intellectual growth.
