InterestsFoodHistoryTravelWritingMarketing

I'm an English Teacher educated in History, Politics, Literature, Languages and Culture to Master's level from SOAS, University of London. My professional experience holds 10 years of experience in Business Development, Marketing and Sales. I'm more than interested in meeting new people and learning more about the people I connect with. I love to travel and seek out new experiences that bring about amazing life opportunities. Other than English, I have learnt French and Mandarin, Chinese and I am currently learning Spanish. I'm very approachable and love animals and I have a British Shorthair and a Golden Retriever. :)

Me as a Teacher

I'm a very adaptable teacher and enjoy adapting to the needs of my students. I have taught from primary school aged children to adults and I can help with listening, reading, speaking and writing as well as grammar and IELTs. I often help people improve their level of English by watching the way that they learn and applying those techniques. My specialisations are Academic and Business English but I am more than happy to teach conversational English.

My lessons & teaching style

A typical lesson structure completely depends on your level of needs. I like to have a variety of activities that include grammar, vocabulary and understanding. I like to balance the skills and find that students often have a stronger skill, for example, listening, reading, writing or speaking so I often encourage my students to use that skill to help them develop their other skills. I would say that I'm a relaxed teacher, I think that stress-free environment encourages students to absorb more information and learn better
