Connecting Across Cultures: The Practical Use of English

Àpd 829 CNY /h

English is widely used as a common language in international business, education, and online communication. For students as young as 6, learning English opens doors to knowledge, as many educational resources, websites, and international programmes use English as a main language. It helps young learners access information, build confidence, and communicate with peers from different parts of the world.

For adults, including those up to 65 and beyond, English remains equally important. It supports career development, travel, and lifelong learning. In many workplaces, English is used for communication, meetings, and professional writing. Being able to understand and use English can improve job opportunities and make it easier to work in international environments.

Beyond work and study, English also enriches daily life. It allows people to enjoy films, books, news, and online content in their original form. Most importantly, it helps build connections—whether through friendships, cultural exchange, or global collaboration.

In a rapidly changing world, English is not just a subject to learn, but a practical tool that supports communication, understanding, and personal growth at every stage of life.

Présentation

I am an experienced English language educator with a solid track record in higher education, responsible for designing and leading programmes that respond to changing learner and institutional needs. I take a practical approach to curriculum development, classroom delivery, and learner support, with a clear focus on outcomes and standards.

Before moving into education, I worked in marketing management and corporate communications within established financial institutions. That experience shaped my discipline in planning, communication, and stakeholder management; skills I continue to apply when leading classes, coordinating programmes, and working with colleagues across functions.

My transition into education was a deliberate career decision. It has strengthened my resilience, judgment, and ability to work with people from different backgrounds and at different stages of life. I value consistency, professionalism, and steady improvement in daily work.

Education

University of Cambridge
Cambridge ESOL Teaching Awards – Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (2010)

University of Leicester
Master of Arts (M.A.) Mass Communications (2005)

Expérience / Qualifications

I bring over two decades of experience teaching Academic and Business English across a wide range of educational settings. My work includes designing curricula, developing teaching materials, and delivering courses tailored to different learner goals. I have worked with highly diverse groups, from secondary school students preparing for further study to professionals seeking career advancement and retirees learning for personal enrichment. This diversity has shaped my ability to adjust teaching strategies, content, and pace to suit varying abilities and expectations.

In addition, I am currently a columnist for a Chinese newspaper, where I write a regular column aimed at motivating and teaching everyday English to Hong Kong primary school students. This role allows me to translate language concepts into accessible and engaging content for younger learners.

My teaching approach combines practical communication skills with a strong academic foundation, ensuring that learners can apply English effectively in both study and workplace contexts. I place particular emphasis on clarity, structure, and purposeful language use.

Earlier in my career, I gained experience in marketing and corporate communications within the financial sector. This professional background continues to inform my teaching, especially in Business English, where real-world relevance, precision, and audience awareness are essential.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

I use fun and interactive methods
I currently provide personalized tutoring for primary and secondary school students in all subjects.

I offer sessions adapted to the needs and pace of each student

Methodology:
- Initial assessment: For each support I will do a diagnostic assessment to identify the student's strengths and weaknesses in the subject concerned (mathematics, French, science, etc.).
- Personalized approach: The courses are adapted to the student's level, with individualized monitoring. This includes practical exercises, targeted revisions and explanations adapted to each learning pace.
- Progressive objectives: we set short and long term objectives together to motivate the student.
- Learning techniques: I use interactive methods (online exercises, educational games) and revision sheets to help memorize and understand key concepts (flashcards, etc.)

Type of sessions:
- Course of the sessions:
- Review of previous concepts: 10-15 minutes to review the points covered during the last lesson.
- Lesson of the day: 30-45 minutes to present and explain a new concept.
- Practical exercises: 20-30 minutes to apply what has been learned, offering exercises adapted to the student's level.
- Questions and corrections: 10-15 minutes at the end to answer the student's questions and correct mistakes together.
