Hi learners! I love talking to people!! This is why I am a teacher and for me, having a good, friendly relationship with my learners is as important as explaining how we use prepositions or the future perfect tense. Making connections with students helps to build trust and confidence! I am also a coach and a therapist, so I believe in kindness, patience and your potential to improve your English.

Ik als leerkracht
I have been teaching for 25 years or more...gosh that makes me feel old!! I have a BA in cultural studies and am TEFL qualified. I have worked in Australia, Russia, London and Oxford and have been teaching online for over 2 years. I have taught students from every corner of the world, children and adults. I love the fact that improving English can give a person more freedom to travel, study, work and live in countries where English is spoken.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
Before we meet for the first time i will send you a placement test if you wish.
I teach 4 types of lessons:
Speak easy is a conversation based lesson where we can talk about all sorts of topics that interest you. I will find material to suit your level with the purpose of getting you to speak as much as possible. I usually send learners a link to a news item, video, audio, before a lesson and we go through the material working on pronunciation, vocabulary and comprehension. Sometimes, our conversations are spontaneous.
Blended English focuses on a grammar weakness you have.
Business and exam English focuses on Business language and culture and skills for exam success!

I really enjoyed my lesson today, and also, I appreciate Helen's patience so much while I was sharing with her the last news, happening in my family. All her corrections along our conversation were very helpful.
As always, by the way!😁

Your encouragement from our last session still stays with me. Even though I still get nervous (and a little frustrated!) when going into details, I feel so much safer opening up to you. The way you saw something worthwhile in my messy thoughts... I can’t tell you how much that means to me.🧡
