Hi! I'm Sarah, an English teacher and Language Anxiety Coach. I specialise in helping learners overcome their fear of speaking and using English.
My 16 years’ experience includes Cambridge exams, IELTS, interview preparation and people learning for fun. I have four teaching qualifications including Cambridge University’s Diploma, a masters' level qualification. My training and experience means you get top quality lessons that push you towards your goals. All my own worksheets are dyslexia-friendly and easy-to-read.
I’d love to meet you in a trial lesson. When you book, you'll get a free gift! Please note that I may alter course prices to reflect changes in exchange rates.Ik als leerkracht
The most important thing for me as a teacher is ensuring that you achieve what you want to. I believe that you know better than I what you need in order to succeed. My job is to support, encourage and guide you towards your destination.
I'm a big fan of study skills and will encourage you to develop these so that you can become more independent as a language learner. As part of this, I help you to set an achievable goal and create a study plan that will move you towards it step by step.
My overall belief about language learning is that it should be a rewarding process. Yes, you may need to work hard to achieve your goals, but that doesn't mean that the journey can't be enjoyable.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
Enhancing your happiness, confidence and success is the most important part of my work. Throughout your lessons, you will be supported in reaching whatever goal you choose. I will also help you develop a positive mindset towards your English and yourself through developing a real communication mindset.
I teach with a student-centred way and aim to help you make your own discoveries rather than feed you information. This means that you will be working harder in the lessons, which results in deeper learning for you. My lessons are practical and may include essay writing, speaking test practice, watching and discussing YouTube clips or reading articles as well as building up your study skills.Mijn lesmateriaal

Sarah is a very serious teacher. She answers questions patiently and corrects pronunciation. She always gives me feedback after a class so that I know more about my shortcomings

I’ve been studying English with Sarah for seven months and I have soon realized that both my knowledge and confidence were growing and growing, and they still are! I am currently preparing CPE and I am a language teacher myself, so I can appreciate the teaching method as well as her commitment. Her attention to your inner motivation is the icing on the cake!

I wish I had met Sarah sooner, she's so organized, calm and accurate in the remarks. See something good about my fluency in English is a kind of tricky for me, but she could show me with facts that I have more than I thought. Sarah, thanks for helping me see what I need, but also for seeing what I already have.
