I have been told I am a Patient and Supportive Teacher who specialises in Business English. I love teaching and helping students achieve their goals!
I have been working in Education for some time, with experience as an English Teacher, a Learning Support Assistant and as a Peer Tutor. I also have a background in Business, as I used to work in Consulting, Marketing and Sales. This is why I teach Business English, as I really enjoy helping people develop their professional goals by drawing upon my past experiences. Whether it is for a job interview, a presentation, or you simply want to learn more, then it would be my pleasure to help you and give you the confidence you deserve.Me as a Teacher
I will use tried and tested methods that will help you reach your targets. I like to really engage the students in the lesson and I do this by using different activities within different contexts that give students plenty of practice. Rather then doing really complex activities, we will look at real life examples and this will give you useful information that will help you with your English going forward.
Using a relaxed teaching method, we will make a plan for what we want to achieve in our lessons. I can also work with documents and work that you have submitted such as Resumes/CV's, Spreadsheets and Presentations.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons facilitate an environment where students can feel safe to make mistakes, learn from them, and become more confident because of it. For Business English, we will have personalised classes where we can identify your needs and tailor lessons that help you with your Business English Communication. With IELTS classes, we will identify your strengths and weaknesses and make a clear plan of action to help you improve. With all my lessons, we will have a very proactive class that is suited to your requirements. We will also engage in exercises and activities such as Role Play and Presentations. There will be many opportunities for feedback to help you grow.My teaching material
