About Me
I am an experienced tutor in English, English Literature, Creative Writing and Spanish. I have worked with students of all ages, from primary school through to adults, and I have experience helping students with dyslexia and ADHD. My aim is to tailor each class to each student - we all learn better when we learn in the way that best suits us rather than in the way a school needs to teach us!As well as working as a teacher, I am a published and award-winning writer, having had my debut novel published by UCLan in 2021 (The Haunting of Lindy Pennyworth) and various short stories performed and published by such organisations as the Charles Dickens Museum, the Maria Edgeworth Society, Theatre Cloud and Otranto House.
Additionally, I run storytelling and writing sessions with the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, London, and the Museum of Oxford.

Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children.
