A super friendly British Degree, Masters, and PhD qualified tutor with a real passion for teaching! Hi! I'm Valerie, a British TEFL-certified, Degree, Masters, and PhD educated tutor from England with over 20 years teaching experience. I specialise in IELTS speaking and writing, conversation practice, and kids learning, helping students all over the world reach their goals. When I'm not teaching, I love travel, food, fiction writing and nature. I am a friendly, approachable, and empathic IELTS, kids teacher and conversationalist. I am an excellent listener, speaker, reader, and writer. I assess my students' needs on an individual basis. I am flexible in my teaching skills, and can work with students on all different levels, and with various needs including IELTS exam preparation, pronunciation, conversation, writing, and reading. I have a nurturing/facilitator/psychological approach to IELTS teaching. I create a free and relaxed atmosphere that encourages my students to solve problems. As a teacher it is important: to be myself, openly express my thoughts and feelings; to show students full confidence in themselves and in their capabilities and abilities; to show empathy, that is, an understanding of the feelings and experiences of each of my students. This technique is used on a one-to-one basis because, I, as a teacher-facilitator need to interact with my students individually. My lessons are fun, informative, and educational.

Valerie is very calm and nice. I like the way she speaks with me, when i don't understand the words or the grammar. Thank you for your support.
