Do you hesitate before speaking English? Worry about making mistakes in meetings or conversations?
I'm a British English teacher with a strong business background, and I specialise in helping professionals and nervous learners speak with confidence and fluency. Whether you're preparing for presentations, wanting to feel comfortable in casual conversations, or simply need to be able to express yourself more clearly, I create a relaxed, judgment-free environment where you can practice easily.
My teaching philosophy is simple: confidence comes from conversation. The more you speak, the more natural it becomes—and I'm here to guide and support you every step of the way.Ik als leerkracht
I believe the best language learning happens when you feel relaxed and supported.
My teaching style:
Patient and encouraging - I understand that speaking a new language can make you nervous so I create a judgment-free zone where mistakes are just part of learning
Conversational and practical - Real-life situations you'll actually encounter, not textbook exercises
Tailored to YOU - Every lesson adapts to your goals, interests, and pace
Business expertise - Years of business experience help me guide you through professional English
I'm particularly good at helping shy or nervous students. Many come to me feeling uncertain, and within a few lessons, they're speaking with much more confidence! Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My approach is flexible and conversation-based, focusing on topics relevant to your life and work.
Lesson structure:
We discuss subjects that interest you—work scenarios, hobbies, current events, or specific situations you need English for
I naturally correct pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary without interrupting flow
We can use lesson time to polish your presentations, emails, or other professional/personal documents
YOU do most of the speaking—this is your practice time
Specializations:
Conversational English for everyday situations
Business English (meetings, presentations, emails, negotiations)
Confidence building for nervous speakers

My daughter loves Ruth! It's a great pleasure to practice English with this teacher! She helps to choose the topic of the lesson taking into consideration the interests of her pupil. Her speach is very clear, she always explains unknown words. I do recommend Ruth for those who want to practice English!

Elle a su s'adapter à mon niveau d'anglais et à mes besoins, je me sens à l'aise de lui poser des questions et de pratiquer la conversation dans une ambiance rassurante et professionnelle.
Merci beaucoup ! ☀️
