Hello, I'm Billy-Mai a.k.a Shams, which is the Arabic word for ‘Sun’.
I’m a professional writer and communication specialist, experienced tutor, mentor, and self-development coach. I'm currently studying psychology while training in counselling and therapy. I love dogs, music, spending time in nature, and having deep conversations!
I’m the perfect teacher for you if you're looking for classes focused on native-level discussion, particularly surrounding mental health, trauma, holistic wellness, and spirituality.
I offer Creative Writing classes and workshops for children and adults who are inspired to write any creative project that involves producing and copywriting (eg. memoir, etc.)Показать перевод
Я как преподаватель
I began teaching English language, literature, and drama to children when I was 15. I won a national volunteer award for my dedication and enthusiasm as a young teaching assistant.
At 18, I moved to London for uni and worked as a private tutor for children. I also gained experience teaching ESL to groups of adults. I received a 1st Class Honours in BA Media and Communication with Creative Writing, and became TESOL certified shortly after.
Over time, I developed my therapeutic skills and began guiding clients through healing and growth. I became a self-development coach and grew the desire to become a therapist. Now, I'm studying Psychology and Psychotherapy while training in counselling.Мои уроки и стиль преподавания
I offer 3 types of classes:
1. Conversational English Practice:
Discussing any topic, I'll occasionally pause the conversation to help you understand how to use the correct grammar, words, and pronunciation, and introduce you to new vocabulary and phrases.
2. Creative Writing Workshops:
We work to improve your writing skills and develop your written voice and personality. Perfect for school essays or exam prep, poetry, prose and scripts, business emails and reports, etc.
3. Self-Development Sessions:
With emotional support and guidance to build your self-awareness, these sessions will help shift your mindset and perspective to improve your mental health and holistic wellbeing.Мой учебный материал
