About Me

**Welcoming new and returning students! (Please book your lessons in advance if possible - from September to December is a very busy period.**

👍 Do you need to improve your fluency and confidence for your job, travel or everyday life?
👍 Are you preparing for a Cambridge First, Advanced or Proficiency exam?
👍 Do you have a good level of English already but would like to keep on learning?

If so, I would love to help you! Please read on...

I am a native English teacher from the famous city of Oxford in the United Kingdom. I have over twenty years of experience in education, mostly as an English teacher in schools, language schools and companies, and as an English tutor online.

* Fluency - Improve your fluency for travel, work and everyday life. Gain confidence through speaking practise with corrections on a wide range of topics chosen according to your needs and interests.

* Exam preparation - I am especially familiar with the Cambridge exams (First, Advanced, Proficiency) and have also helped people with IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC and official Spanish exams.

* Personal qualities - I have plenty of patience and the flexibility to adapt to your learning style and interests. I will aim for each class to be entertaining and challenging, helping you to progress in an enjoyable way. I am interested in current affairs, environmental issues, family life and all aspects of language learning so I'm sure we will have plenty to talk about!

* Homework / self-study guidance - I will always suggest homework and guidance for independent study (taking into account student's objectives and interests).

I also offer 45 minute lessons at a reduced rate. Please feel free to book a lesson, or send me a message if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you!

Finally, please do not book lessons for under-13 year olds as we are not allowed to teach them on Verbling!

My trial lessons

The trial class has two main purposes:
- To get to know each other a little (you will be able to see if you feel comfortable with me and like me/my teaching style!)
- For me to get an idea of your objectives, strengths and weaknesses. I will send you a personalized learning plan afterwards detailing how I can help you improve your English.

You will also have the chance to ask questions and get some feedback on your English. See you soon!!
