English Classes (Private or Group): General or Cambridge/IELTS Preparation

From 33.3 $ /h

CELTA-qualified native English teacher with 4 years of experience teaching kids, teens, students, and adults from all backgrounds. I'm also a journalist and research masters graduate with a lot of writing and editorial experience. I've taught general English, exam preparation (Cambridge, IELTS) and academic English in the UK, Spain, and Amsterdam.

I'm young, smart and casual – I prefer informal classes with a lot of fun activities, videos, and popular culture. But I'm also a specialist in exam preparation, high-level writing, and academic skills. I can help most with writing at all levels!

I offer structured 1-on-1 classes tailored to the student's needs, more informal conversation classes, group classes (up to 6), or proofing and editing services – let me know if you need help with cover letters, applications, university coursework or writing of any kind!

Rates vary with type and class size (groups and conversation classes are cheaper than structured 1-on-1). The minimum price shown is for such basic conversation classes – more structure and preparation of materials will cost more.

Academic English Writing Support and Editing: Classes or One-off Services

35.76 $ /h

Struggling to write academic texts as part of your studies or research career? Need help improving your essay, presentation script or thesis? Or do you simply want to boost your writing skills?

I'm a teacher of English as a second language (with four years' experience), a professional editor/proofreader of academic writing (freelance, for Peerwith and Scribbr), and a graduate from a research masters degree with a humanities background. I know how to build and perfect strong academic texts in all fields, and also have a passion for supporting thinkers to communicate their ideas as best as possible.

During our tutorials and in my written feedback, I can improve your texts, but also your writing skills. Many other editing services will fix your writing, but won't explain how you can do this yourself. The goal here is to help you to not need someone like me any more! However, I am also happy to provide more straightforward editing, proofreading or formatting services. So it's possible to book one service or a series of support classes – for just you or for a small group, as you prefer.

Looking forward to helping you present your ideas!
