Hello! I'm Colette, a qualified English teacher (PGCE, QTS, TEFL) with 4+ years teaching experience.
I specialise in structured lessons for children and teenagers using a structured curriculum - systematically building reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills with clear progress tracking.
I also work with adults improving professional English for meetings, presentations, interviews, and workplace communication.
As a French and Spanish speaker, I understand language learning challenges and bring patience and practical strategies.
I create tailored lessons that deliver results for children and professionals.Ik als leerkracht
I'm a fully qualified teacher with PGCE, QTS, and TEFL certification, teaching students aged 6-60 for 4+ years.
For children and teens, I use a structured curriculum with games, stories, and interactive activities. Parents appreciate clear learning objectives, progress tracking, and measurable improvement.
For adults, I focus on practical English for real situations - workplace communication, confidence building, and natural fluency.
I'm also a language learner (French and Spanish), so I understand your challenges. I know which areas cause problems and how to make them easier.
My style is patient and encouraging. Mistakes are part of learning - practise without fear! Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven

Thank you, Colette for the efficient and interesting lesson. It was very interesting to discuss and express the ideas about the women equality. I start feeling myself confident, don't to be shy when speaking and expressing the ideas. I appreciate for your tips how to improve English in complex, for the new vocabulary and interesting native expressions that you have shared during the lesson. I hope I'll improve my conversational English and will be able to express the ideas fluently soon. Thank you!

This was my second session with Colette, and I've like it so far. She is nice and friendly and explains to me every word or expression I don't understand. We have had casual talks, but she also prepares material. This time I wanted to check a specific topic, and she covered it better than I expected, thank you Colette :)
