I'm Fiona and I live in the South West of England, near to the city of Bath. My main interests are cooking, hiking, reading and motorcycling. I'm interested in different cultures and enjoy participating in language exchanges. I ran my own equestrian business for many years and I still officiate as a judge at competitions. I was brought up in Scotland, but I've lived in England for many years now.

Me as a Teacher
I gained my Cambridge CELTA qualification in 2013 and have been teaching English for 10 years, exclusively online in the last 3 years. I can help you with General English grammar and pronunciation, Conversational English, Business English and exam preparation (IELTS,FCE,CAE,TOEFL etc) depending on your needs and goals. I am patient, calm and understanding. I like to encourage my students to explore English culture - literature, poetry, films as well as discussions on a wide range of subjects.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are well prepared and focused to your needs. I concentrate on helping you to gain confidence and fluency through exercises, reading and discussion topics, using a variety of methods. I will correct your grammar and pronunciation, but in a friendly and relaxed way. I am confident that you will see an improvement in your abilities from the start. I like to encourage my students to do homework to complement the lessons and all assignments are marked and returned. Book a trial lesson today and see for yourself!
