English Classes in London, UK

I am 58 and live near Cambridge with my husband and two grown up children. I have been learning Italian for three years now and enjoy the process learning one to one. I enjoy many hobbies including embroidery, drawing, gardening and cooking. I love to visit new places and meet all sorts of different people. Everyone has a story and I am very much looking forward to hearing yours. My friends describe me as kind, patient and fun so hopefully you will feel very relaxed in our first lesson. While I have been learning Italian, I realised how difficult it can be to progress with speaking a foreign language. It can be nerve wracking and so when I teach conversational English, I will make sure that the student feels relaxed and I will emphasise that there is no rush to get the right word or phrase out. While I have no formal teaching qualifications, I have college level education and speak with no accent. My lessons will be informal, fun and I have lots of patience. I will start by asking the student about themselves and work on building up a strategy of learning by using their interests and hobbies. They can also ask me about my life and day to day activities or, if they are more advanced, we can talk about current affairs, history, politics etc.

The main areas of teaching English as a foreign language that I have specialized in are General English, Business English, English for Academic Purposes, Critical Thinking and IELTS exam Preparation. Over the last several years, I have taught on numerous pre-sessional courses for students preparing to take a BA or MA degree in UK or Australian based universities. Over my teaching career, I have instructed students of various ages, nationalities and backgrounds and I have a lot of experience teaching learners on a one-to-one basis. In terms of credentials, I have gained a BA in Music, an MA in Education, and the English Language teaching qualifications of CELTA and DELTA.

Experienced teacher with expertise supporting nervous B1+ children, teens and adults I love reading, spending time in nature and being creative. My adorable Shih Tzu fluff-ball usually sleeps and keeps my feet warm during lessons. However, apologies in advance if you hear his loud snores or occasional barks at the postman! I adore trying new foods from around the world and have a sweet-tooth. Have you watched The Great British Bake Off? I highly recommend watching it to gain insight into British life and our sense of humour. However, you have been warned… it may make you feel peckish! I've been teaching exclusively online now since 2021 and love it! I'm a qualified Primary School Teacher and taught children in UK schools for five years. I’ve also lived and taught English in France, Canada and Malaysia. In Paris I taught children and adults at the British Council. I hope my calm, fun and friendly personality will help you feel confident to speak up and express your ideas and opinions. I am a patient teacher who both supports and challenges students. When learning with me, mistakes are actively encouraged... this may sound strange but with each mistake you make, you learn from it. I will guide you to notice these mistakes and even correct yourself because in my experience, that is how you learn best. If you choose to take lessons with me, we will first spend time discussing what you want to achieve and how I can help you reach your language goals. I look forward to meeting you and to working with you on your English language journey!

Native British English Teacher | Conversation, Exam Preparation & Pronunciation My lessons are flexible and tailored to each student’s goals, with a focus on three core areas: fluency, accuracy and confidence. For speaking-focused students, I use natural conversation practice based on real-life topics to help you speak more fluently and naturally. I correct errors in a supportive way during the lesson, so you can improve without losing confidence. The aim is to help you communicate clearly and comfortably in real situations. For exam students, I provide structured practice, targeted feedback and practical strategies for each part of the exam: listening, reading, speaking and writing. I have experience helping students prepare for IELTS and Cambridge English exams, and I focus on both performance technique and language improvement. I also place strong emphasis on pronunciation, vocabulary development and helping you express yourself clearly and accurately in real communication. Lessons are relaxed but focused.

Achieve confidence and fluency in a fun and friendly atmosphere. I am a friendly, creatively minded person. I have been an entertainer for over twenty years, beginning with music and moving into the performing arts and circus along the way. I have played drums for twenty five years and love the energy of rhythmic music. I have traveled extensively as a living statue and juggler and I love to meet people from around the world, to discover new cultures and swap stories of far flung places and fun adventures. I am a very patient teacher, who is kind and relaxed. However, I am enthusiastic about learning and enjoy a lively conversation and laughter. I encourage my students to feel comfortable to express themselves. I prefer to teach conversational, general or business English and I prefer working with intermediate to advanced level students. However, I am willing to work on more structured material (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, phonetics, idioms etc) if that is what a student would like to learn. My lessons are focused on confidence and fluency, but there will be plenty of error correction! I encourage students to feel comfortable to make the mistakes which are necessary for progress. My lessons are tailored to suit the students as individuals on their own path. I am a patient and easy going teacher who delights in seeing students improve their English. *IMPORTANT* If you change, postpone or cancel a lessons with less than 24 hours notice I will expect you to pay for it and book another.

Watch my video speaking in all my languages. I like calling myself a ''world citizen'' with a serious case of wanderlust. I've been blessed with the privilege of a very international upbringing; I've lived in 7 different countries growing up which gave me the possibility to broaden my horizons, experience new cultures, meet interesting people, and learn new languages in their native countries. I'm fun, open-minded and love having conversations about various topics. I always give my students the opportunity to choose the topic of conversation they're interested in (if they want to) and then I find relevant material and resources to prepare a class. I'm extremely patient and supportive and never tired of giving explanations when required. Please note that in accordance with the website's terms and conditions, you cannot reschedule or cancel a lesson in the last 24h before the class takes place. My lessons are designed especially for each individual student after the trial lesson when I evaluate the student's level and are mainly based on conversation and oral comprehension while of course covering other parts of the language such as correct pronunciation, grammar, and syntax when necessary. I always try to keep them fun and of course interactive to keep the motivation going! At each class, we want to learn something new and also practice/recap newly acquired knowledge.
