About Me
My name is Charlie. I'm a social anthropologist, humanitarian worker, and English teacher from the beautiful Celtic region of Cornwall, England.
I have lived in Chile, Guyana and France - so I speak English, Spanish and now French, as well as some Portuguese! I love travel, adventure and creative arts like photography and music.
In Guyana, I created a non-profit organisation (NGO) called Voices GY (www.voicesgy.org) where we taught English to more than 250 refugees at a time!
Whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced speaker, I'd love to work with you to help you achieve your English goals!
