Teacher who understands the unique difficulties of learning languages as an adult!!! I am an English teacher with fifteen years experience. I offer lessons made for individual needs and will focus on the areas a particular student needs help with. I offer English for specific purposes in three main areas: medicine, science and economics. I have a MSc for University College London, as well as a Bachelor of Arts degree in Geography, a Bachelor of Science degree in Life Sciences and a Bachelor of Commerce degree in Economics. I have lectured economics at university level as well as supervised Masters level students in the area of environmental conservation and biology. Parlo Italiano! The first lesson will be a purely speaking class where I will assess your level, identify areas of weakness and do a needs analysis where we can determine what your future lessons will look like. I have students that have gone from A2 to B2 speaking in three months so I do believe with the right work and effort big improvements are possible. I am also happy to set homework. I focus on my teaching style matching the student. If a student wishes to focus on speaking we can do that, if they wish to focus on grammar we can also do that. I am flexible and enjoy teaching!

Carolynne is an excellent teacher! If you’re an introvert and lack confidence, she is the perfect choice for you. She puts you at ease and listens carefully, her corrections are very gentle, and she doesn’t make you feel nervous.

Insegnante estremamente capace e competente. Anche solo dopo pochissimi minuti di lezione è in grado di comprendere quali sono le specifiche difficoltà nella lingua che ha lo studente ed affrontarle durante la lezione in maniera sistematica e strutturata. Ha una metodologia didattica chiara ed efficace che ti consente di memorizzare le correzioni e migliorare la lingua di lezione in lezione. Sono estremamente soddisfatto

Absolutely life-changing, the best tutor I’ve ever had. Her teaching method is crystal clear and incredibly well-structured. She has this rare gift of knowing exactly where you’re stuck before you even realize it yourself, and she explains things in a way that just clicks. What truly sets her apart, though, is who she is as a person. She brings so much warmth and patience to every single session that you never feel embarrassed to make mistakes. And in language learning, that sense of safety is everything. I found myself speaking more freely and confidently with every lesson, and that’s entirely because of the environment she creates. She is also remarkably flexible and professional, always prepared, always adapting the lesson to my specific needs and goals, never making me feel like just another student on her schedule. You feel genuinely cared for. She is, without a doubt, a 10 out of 10.
