I am from the west of England, although I spent 2 years in Asia, where I taught children English in a language centre as well as online. I also have many years experience of working with disabled and dyslexic students in a university - helping them to access the right support to learn effectively.
I love helping language students to develop their English. I pay attention to detail, and notice many students (including advanced speakers with a wide vocabulary) greatly reducing residual grammatical errors and improving their intonation. Written work is carefully considered with tracked suggestions, comments and - where appropriate - questions about meaning for students to consider.
Me as a Teacher
- Celta qualified.
- many years experience working in a university with students.
- experience of teaching English to small groups of children as well as one to one with children and adults.
- sound understanding of different learning styles.
- sessions based on student need.
- friendly, supportive and adaptable.
My lessons & teaching style
Lessons are relaxed and student focussed so we are always working in a way that suits your individual needs and style of learning.
- Conversation practice with feedback and correction being provided : students can choose a conversation topic, or I can bring one to the session (or we can just talk very informally). Optional homework can be given eg watching a short video or listening to a podcast to discuss at class.
- Correction of written work: spelling, grammar, fluency, and if required, coherency suggestions.
- IELTS: preparation for speaking and writing.
- A structured but fun children's programme to develop all the necessary English skills (please enquire if interested).

Alice is a responsible, thoughtful, patient and interesting teacher. She always has high-quality study resources available, and she is adept at identifying areas where my English need to be improved and providing appropriate assistance. I enjoy learning from her.
