Hello! I’m a 5-star ESL teacher on Preply and iTalki with over five years of experience teaching adults online across a variety of platforms.

After hundreds of one-to-one lessons, I saw the same problem every week: lesson planning just simply took too much time. Most ESL materials didn’t last me the 60 minutes that they promised, felt incomplete, asked awkward discussion questions, or looked childish.

Nothing truly worked for my serious adult learners – and I know they deserved better. 

So I built the kind of lessons that I needed myself: lessons that are structured, visually engaging, with good pacing, and that balance speaking and grammar. Not lesson plans for children – but ESL lesson plans for adults.

LessonReadyESL is the reusable lesson library that I wish had when I started.

My Approach To Teaching Adult ESL Students

TEFL Lesson Plans

Grammar in Context

Guided Speaking Practice

Real-World Vocabulary

Grammar is taught in context through clear explanations, interactive examples, and targeted practice. Each ESL lesson plan focuses on practical grammar that adult learners can immediately use in conversation.

Speaking activities and discussions prompts are directly connected to the grammar and vocabulary for each ESL lesson, helping adult students build confidence through structured speaking practice.

Each lesson introduces vocabulary and expressions built around meaningful themes so adult ESL learners can expand their vocabulary and use new language naturally in real-life conversations.
