I am a Cambridge CELTA-qualified teacher, a native British English speaker originally from London, and I am passionate about helping students achieve their goals and succeed in their Cambridge exams. I offer both online and in-person Cambridge exam preparation courses designed to help students feel confident, prepared, and ready for their exams.

Since 2020, I have worked with Cambridge English preparing students for exams ranging from Starters (Pre-A1) all the way to Proficiency (C2). Alongside teaching, I have also worked as a Cambridge exam invigilator here in Lugano, helping to manage and supervise the examination process itself. This experience has given me a deep understanding not only of the language requirements, but also of how the exams are structured, assessed, and conducted in real exam conditions.

Over the years, I have developed my courses to cover every aspect of the exams in depth, while also giving students plenty of time for guided and monitored exam practice. My aim is not only to improve students’ English, but also to help them feel comfortable, familiar, and confident with the exam format itself.

The course is offered in two formats:

5-Lesson Introduction to the Exam Course

This course includes:

An overview of all parts of the exam
Exam tips and strategies
Advice on how to approach each task
Homework and writing feedback
Introduction to timing and exam techniques
all practice materials are provided in digital form included in the course

10-Lesson In-Depth Exam Preparation Course
A more complete and detailed preparation course for students who would like extra support, structure, and guidance throughout their exam journey.
This course includes:

In-depth coverage of every part of the exam
Exam tips, strategies, and techniques
Homework and guided preparation
Writing task correction (live) and feedback
Monitored exam practice
Introduction to timing and exam techniques
Support in building confidence and improving exam performance
