Hi! I'm Alix from London, England. I teach British English with a focus on conversational confidence🗣️! I've travelled to over 30 countries and lived in China, Japan, Italy, and Thailand, so I love sharing cultural knowledge as well as language. I'm Cambridge CELTA-qualified 🎓 and have 8 years experience helping students with IELTS and general English. Let's make learning English fun, interesting, and easy together! ☕
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher I understand the real challenges of learning a language and adapting to a different culture, and I'm here to help you build confidence and enjoy learning 🍰
I'm a calm, patient teacher who takes the time to get to know you and your learning style 💡. I plan lessons that are relevant to your needs, goals, and interests, making sure you feel supported every step of the way. I also bring my own life experience into my teaching: from living in different countries🌎, running a business👩🏼💻, and being a mum.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are friendly, flexible, relaxed, and structured to help you achieve your goals 📈. I adapt to your schedule and learning style, making sure each class is both enjoyable and effective. I use Google Classroom and Drive to keep all your resources organised and easy to access. Lessons are built around real-world materials like videos and podcasts based on your interests, not just outdated textbooks 🎧! You will learn how to speak naturally and confidently like a native, from a native. Together, we'll make steady, confident progress. 🤝

Alix is really professional and kind! I enjoy lessons with her so much!
During our first class, she conducted a thorough assessment of my English skills by asking me a series of questions. She also took the time to understand my specific learning goals and preferences for her teaching approach. For instance, she asked whether I preferred immediate corrections when making mistakes or a general feedback session at the end of the class. She also inquired about my expectations regarding homework and other aspects of the learning process, ensuring that her lessons were tailored to my needs.
She is also good at utilizing English teaching materials and online resources to enhance the learning experience. Her lessons are engaging and well-structured, incorporating interactive elements such as digital flashcards and discussion topics!
