I’m a London-based native English teacher specializing in practical, real-world communication—from casual chats to high-stakes business English. With 15+ years training international professionals in the UK care sector, I help learners master the language of workplace success: meetings, leadership, and everyday professional fluency. When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me exploring new music, global cuisines, or planning my next trip—let’s make your English journey just as engaging!
Me as a Teacher
As a certified TEFL, TESOL, and Business English tutor, and I specialise in:
General English for everyday fluency
Advanced English for confident, natural expression
Business English for meetings, presentations, and workplace communication
Professional writing and speaking for emails, reports, and interviews
My lessons & teaching style
Real-world experience: I’ve spent over 15 years managing and training international teams in the UK, so I understand the kind of English that’s actually used in meetings, emails, and workplace conversations.
Tailored lessons: Whether you're a beginner or an advanced speaker, I’ll adapt each session to your goals—whether that’s improving fluency, preparing for a job interview, or refining your business communication.
Relaxed and effective: My lessons are designed to be pressure-free and enjoyable. I believe people learn best when they feel confident and supported.

Paul and I talked about our daily life and it was interesting. After that we studied BBC news. I always enjoy his sharpness.
