Leilani Aldrich

Canadian English Teacher & Career Counselor · Vancouver, BC

Leilani has taught English and coached career skills since 2010, working with students, professionals, and job seekers of every age and level in Vancouver, BC and Tel Aviv. She's guided learners through pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and real conversation, while also helping clients build resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, and interview skills that land jobs.

She holds a Master of Arts in Social Work (Crisis and Trauma Studies) from Tel Aviv University, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of British Columbia, a Career Development Practitioner Certificate from Simon Fraser University, and a TESOL/TESL certification. That background in psychology and counseling means her lessons go beyond grammar. She helps students work through the nerves and self-doubt that come with speaking a new language and starting over in a new country.

Whether you're preparing for the IELTS, sharpening your business English, or getting ready to relocate to North America, Leilani brings both teaching expertise and genuine empathy to every private lesson.
