About Dr RESHMI

Hello and welcome
I’m Dr. Reshmi, a native Malayalam speaker and PhD-qualified linguist, specialising in spoken Malayalam for English speakers and NRIs.
You don’t need confidence before you start.
Confidence is what we build together — slowly, clearly, and without pressure.
Many international learners come to me feeling unsure about: • pronunciation
• sentence order
• sounding “wrong” or awkward
• speaking Malayalam in front of family
My role is to make Malayalam feel safe, logical, and speakable — even if you are starting from zero.

EXPERIENCE & CREDENTIALS
• PhD in Applied Linguistics
• Cambridge CELTA & DELTA
• TEFL & TESOL certified
• 15+ years of global teaching experience
I explain Malayalam in clear English, so you always understand why something works — not just what to memorise.

WHO MY CLASSES ARE IDEAL FOR
• English speakers learning Malayalam
• NRIs reconnecting with the language
• Adults who understand Malayalam but hesitate to speak
• Beginners who feel shy or self-conscious
• Learners who want clarity, pronunciation & confidence
You are never rushed
You are never judged
Progress happens through guided speaking, not pressure

  • Tell us more about your subject. How did you develop an interest in this field?

    Language has always fascinated me—not just as a system of rules, but as a living bridge between people, cultures, and identities. My academic background is in Applied Linguistics, and over the years I’ve specialised in teaching spoken English and Malayalam to learners from very diverse backgrounds. What drew me in was seeing how language confidence can completely transform a person’s sense of self. Teaching Malayalam in particular became close to my heart because it allows learners to reconnect with their roots, family, and culture in a deeply personal way.
  • What or who is the motivation behind you choosing to teach & why?

    My biggest motivation has always been my students. Watching someone go from hesitation and self-doubt to speaking confidently—even imperfectly—never gets old. Many of my learners come to me with emotional reasons: connecting with grandparents, partners, or their cultural identity. Being part of that journey is incredibly fulfilling and reminds me why teaching is more than just a profession for me—it’s a responsibility I truly enjoy.
  • How does your work help society?

    Language empowers people. It builds confidence, improves relationships, and opens doors—professionally and personally. Through my work, I help learners communicate without fear, especially those who’ve felt “left behind” or judged because of their accent or fluency level. On a broader level, teaching languages promotes cultural understanding and empathy, which I believe is deeply valuable in today’s globalised world.
  • If you had to think of a role model for your work, who do you think of & why?

    I draw inspiration from educators who combine academic depth with human warmth. Rather than a single role model, I admire teachers who make learning feel safe, respectful, and empowering—where students are encouraged to think, speak, and grow without fear of making mistakes. That balance is what I constantly strive for in my own teaching.
  • Tell us about your hobbies outside teaching.

    Outside the classroom, I enjoy reading, reflective writing, and exploring how language appears in everyday life—films, conversations, and storytelling. I also enjoy quiet moments with music and spending time observing people and cultures, which often feeds back into my teaching in subtle ways.
  • Do you have an anecdote to tell us about your student or professional life?

    One moment that stays with me is when a student who barely spoke in the first few classes told me, “I didn’t realise I could enjoy speaking.” That shift—from fear to enjoyment—is something I’ve witnessed many times, and it never fails to move me. It’s a reminder that teaching isn’t about perfection; it’s about creating confidence and comfort with one’s own voice.
