About Me

I am a native English speaker from the UK, degree qualified, with over 5 years experience teaching English classes. I am qualified to teach English as a foreign language, and I also have two years field experience in South America, teaching English privately, and in schools and institutes.

I am looking to help students who want to learn English. I am currently learning, and improving my Spanish, so for people with this language as their native language, I will be able to provide a bit of extra support.

[My schedule is a little restricted at the moment due to Post Graduate part-time study, so ask me about specific requirements, as I will normally only be able to offer at most 1 or 2 classes a week and typically in the mornings.]

I can provide help with vocabulary, natural and correct expression, and detailed lesson plans catered to your needs: A more formal approach with various spoken and written exercises if this is your preference, or a more informal approach, such as conversation, role play and language games to aid learning if that is your preference. I look forward to hearing from you!

My trial lessons

In trial lessons I can give you an idea of the kind of things we will do in a regular class, or we can use it as an opportunity to get to know each other, depending on your preference.
