Helping adults find their voice.

I’m Mehdi—an ESOL educator, instructional designer, coach, and founder of Keep Right English.

Knowing English and feeling confident enough to use it are not the same thing.

For more than a decade, I’ve worked with English learners from diverse backgrounds. Again and again, I’ve seen capable adults hold back—not because they had nothing to say, but because they feared saying it imperfectly.

My own life experiences taught me about resilience, empathy, and what it means to keep moving forward. They shaped my belief that people grow when they feel respected, supported, and capable.

Keep Right English brings that belief into language learning.

Confidence before perfection.

Communication before memorization.

Progress over perfection.

Real-life English for real-life success.

Grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation matter. They all serve a bigger purpose: communication.

Built on practice. Guided by empathy.

English creates opportunities. Confidence helps you take them.
