Thanks for popping by!
it’s nice to meet you.
Hi! I’m Amanda (/əˈmændə/). I was born in Sydney, grew up in a small beachside town called Woolgoolga, and spent several years exploring life in the Northern Territory before settling down in Brisbane for six years. Since June 2019, I’ve been living in North India with my husband and our three dogs.
I’m passionate about languages, both as a teacher and a learner. I’m currently learning Hindi as my second language, and this dual perspective has deepened my understanding of the language-learning journey. It’s not just about picking up new skills — it’s about embracing culture, understanding nuances, and building connections beyond words. I bring this approach into my teaching, encouraging curiosity, patience, and ease in every lesson.
I’m a certified accent trainer and hold a Level 5 TEFL qualification. I’ve built a growing community of over 170,000 learners worldwide across social media and my mailing list — including Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, and beyond.
Learning a language can completely change the way you experience living or travelling abroad. It helps you settle in, connect with people, and feel like you’re part of something. I’m here to support you as you build confidence and fluency in Australian English, and to help you understand how Aussies really speak in everyday situations.
Beyond teaching, I also work as a freelance Australian English voiceover artist, sharing the sound and rhythm of Aussie English through different projects. It’s one more way I get to show how our laid-back, warm, and informal style of speaking connects people.
When I’m not teaching or recording, I’m probably reading historical fiction, out on a long walk, or daydreaming about the beach (I’m a beach baby at heart and I really struggle being away from the ocean). I also have a golden wattle tattoo — a little reminder of home that’s always with me.
