Hello there, my name is Mary and I am a recent graduate of Leiden University with an MA in International Relations. Regarding my background, I am a native English speaker due to my upbringing in the United States and I received an excellent 6/7 grade in my English A HL course with an IB diploma in high school.

I am eager to teach English to any learner and I have previous experience teaching English as a volunteer. With my lessons, I will utilize a variety of tools to comprehensively improve the student’s grammar, spelling, and vocabulary. Furthermore, I am able to work with all age groups, including young children and adults. Whether it will be for exam preparation or improving your language abilities for business, I will tailor our lessons to fit your needs as well.

English has become the Lingua Franca of our times. It's a valuable skill to possess, beneficial for everyone. It comes handy in the ever-developing world that we live in and opens doors to many places, also in the mind. Additionally, bilingualism enhances the cognitive skills.

Whether you'd like to improve your speaking skills and break the language barrier or you wish to prepare better for an English exam, I come to an aid.

In 2023, I've obtained a Master degree in Linguistics at the University of Amsterdam. I've achieved the C1+ levels in English, on the CEFR scale. I have 2 years of experience living in London, where I acquired RP (received pronunciation) and 7 years of experience in the International Academia (Amsterdam). My linguistic background gives me the capacity to explain the sounds and various processes of the language, from a perspective many natives do not know. In teaching, I practice the holistic approach. It is my belief that language is for people of every age and education, but I'm aware that everyone deserves a personal approach. In the first session, we always do a needs analysis and become acquainted, to make sure we click as people and will enjoy working away at your personal language goals.

Over the years, my classes, have proven to raise the confidence levels of students. We practice knowledge in English, on 4 levels of proficiency: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing.

I will focus on your strengths and guide you to how to use those to your advantage in learning. We will elicit your potential. With a little help, I am sure you will achieve the goals you set for yourself.
