I am a plain language consultant with a focus on adult education, backed by 18 years experience. I have a degree in Linguistics and a Masters in Adult Education and Lifelong Learning. I'm also an Adult Literacy specialist and ESOL teacher. I have lived, studied, and worked in Northern Ireland (my homeland), the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. I'm aware of the mistakes that most second language speakers make when they speak English. I focus on simple, practical guidance for writing confidently and effectively. And I like making it fun because then you don’t notice you’re learning. I can assist you in all elements of your IELTS, academic or general, or other ESL exam preparation. We can practise the speaking elements of the exam and you can get feedback on your writing as well. I can also give feedback on your CV or cover letter. I'm skilled working with both native English speakers and people who speak English as a second language as well. I can also edit and proofread documents as well if you're an academic who needs essays corrected.
