Hi! I think this is a great opportunity for us to get to know each other and explore what you'd like to achieve in English.
We'll discuss your goals, any challenges you're facing, and the best way for us to work together. I'll also answer any questions you have and suggest ways to help you make progress.
I look forward to meeting you!

These lessons are designed to help you achieve the score or grade you need.
Together, we'll identify your strengths and weaknesses and focus on the areas that will make the biggest difference to your performance. You'll receive practice materials and detailed feedback, and we'll work through exam tasks together so that you understand exactly what examiners are looking for.
Whether you need help with speaking, writing, reading, listening, grammar or vocabulary, lessons will be tailored to your individual needs.
If you're preparing for an exam over a longer period, we can also create a personalised study plan to keep you motivated and on track.

Let's Talk - Fluency & Confidence

Do you feel stuck in your language learning?
Perhaps you lack confidence when speaking, feel overwhelmed by the number of resources available, struggle to stay motivated, or aren't sure how to take your English to the next level.
I particularly enjoy helping B2-C2 learners who feel stuck and want to bridge the gap between knowing English and using it confidently and naturally.
Language coaching is designed to help you learn more effectively and make faster, more sustainable progress.
Together, we will:
• define clear goals and create a personalised learning plan
• identify your strengths, weaknesses and any gaps in your learning strategies
• explore techniques and study methods to find what works best for you
• develop confidence, motivation and accountability
• overcome mental blocks and build a more positive approach to language learning
Throughout the process, I will support, guide and challenge you, providing personalised feedback, practical activities and strategies that you can continue using independently.
This course is ideal for motivated learners who want to take control of their learning, build confidence and make meaningful progress.
If you're ready to take your English to the next level, I'd love to help.

Language Coaching

I completed my first teaching qualification, which is a Cambridge English Teaching Qualification, on my return from Mexico. It gave me essential knowledge, hands-on teaching experience and classroom confidence

This  advanced teaching qualification combined theory and practice and I developed my skills and confidence. As part of the course, I designed a syllabus and taught a range of standard and  experimental lessons which were assessed.

I began by studying Spanish and Italian and then switched to Spanish and Latin American Studies. I also took modules in French and Japanese. I spent my third year living and working in Madrid, Spain, where I worked in a secondary school.

Although much of my work is done in the classroom, for the past two years, I have taught one-to-one classes via Skype. The main focus of my classes has been IELTS preparation.

I worked for three months in an English language school, providing high quality lessons to adults of all levels.

I worked in a university, supporting students with their English language skills.

I taught groups of secondary school students of all ages English, with a focus on communicative activities.
