Hello!
I'm Laura, I'm 40 and I live in Yorkshire in the north of England where I work as a professional photographer and I also work on the functional skills team at a university. I'm currently learning Spanish so I know what it's like to be a student just like you! I'm a native English speaker with a neutral northern English accent.
I have a degree in Media & Psychology, a 120 hour TEFL certificate and I'm currently learning to code in Python & Swift as a hobby. I play the piano and love dogs!

I'm very easy to talk to with a casual teaching style. It's so important to feel at ease with your teache and to enjoy lessons. The more you enjoy them, the more you learn. As a Spanish student myself I understand that talking with a native speaker is so beneficial.
I understand that life happens, so don't worry if you need to cancel or rearrange a lesson, even at the last minute.
Remember that I teach and speak in British English rather than American English.
My lessons are aimed at *learners aged 18 and over*
I do *not* offer children's lessons.
I am hoping to offer IELTS prep in the near future.
I do *not* give consent for screen recording during lessons.My lessons & teaching style
Lessons are tailored to your needs and your level of English :)
Simple conversational sessions are my favourite. It's such a great way to learn and practice. I love teaching British idioms and slang in every day conversation but I can also help you with grammar, pronunciation and corrections. I will note down helpful corrections as we talk, I will review them with you at the end of the lesson and then send my notes to you in a screenshot.
We'll focus on whatever it is that will help you to progress and learn!My teaching material

Laura is an excellent teacher, I'm quite fortunate to have stumbled upon her profile. From the very first lesson there was a hundred percent match in vibe and attitude towards certain subjects. I can feel that I'm making a lot of progress with her. I would highly recommend Laura as an exceptional English teacher and an outstanding person.

I love our lessons, we speak about everything. She is comprehensive and patience. She makes me fell relax during our class, no matter how many mistakes could I make. I feel more confident with the language since we met.

Super teacher. I would like to leave a review to make it nice. But I don't want other students to read it, and then there will be no free time in the schedule to book for myself ). I recommend )
