Tailor-made English Language Lessons: Online & Face to Face
49.27 $ /h
I'm an experienced English language teacher with over 10 years professional experience.
I have extensive experience tutoring academic English, as well as teaching general, business and English for specific purposes. I have also helped tutor students taking formal exams such as IELTS, TOEFL and CAE.

I'm an enthusiastic, proactive and conscientious teacher.
Every class is tailored to the needs of the student, and my classes are planned with your goals in mind.

I am also available for online classes. Via an online suite, you can practice your English from anywhere. I am also available for blended learning courses (a combination of online and face to face classes).

I have 27 years' experience and I specialise in tutoring English for adults who are taking Cambridge or TOLES examinations, or who are using English for university preparation or studies.


Courses are flexible but challenging; everything we do is agreed between the student and the teacher so that the student's goals can be met.

Do you want to have fun while learning English? Join me for dynamic, applied English classes that will help you speak, read, and write with more confidence and accuracy. With my lessons, you can expect individually-tailored materials, friendly conversation, and supportive feedback.

I bring a wealth of English teaching experience to my classes, having worked with learners aged 5 to 70 in contexts ranging from tutoring elementary-aged language learners to leading dynamic conversation classes for working professionals. I'll make sure you have fun and learn a ton, whether you need a basic English refresher, intensive test preparation, or practice improving your grammar and pronunciation.

Do you feel that people have problems understanding you? Or perhaps you feel less confident at work due to your accent. As it is not phonetic, English is a tricky language to pronounce!

I am a Native British CELTA qualified English teacher with over 8 years of experience. In the last 5 years, I have helped dozens of students to improve their pronunciation and even develop a British accent.
During these classes, I can help you to do the same!
This takes place through studying sounds, phonics, mouth placement, listening and lots and lots of practice. All classes are tailored to your own pronunciation and accent needs. Learning pronunciation is really fun and can even help you to sound better in your native tongue!

I have had great success with students in helping them to speak much clearer and more authentically. After a good amount of training, some students are even able to pass as native speakers!
Although I am a British English speaker, I do have knowledge of American English accents and can help you to develop a more 'international sound' which may be more suitable for your needs.

I currently have hours available for classes online due to COVID-19 restrictions. Working online via Zoom is great! We can use lots more media tools, focus directly on mouth formation and I have had lots of success with it.

Do you need to improve your English language skills for study or work purposes. Or do you just want to develop more fluency and be more confident in using English appropriately for a range of social and professional situations?

Whatever your English language learning goals, I can work together with you to devise a program that will make you feel more confident about your English language performance. I have many years of teaching experience, as well as experience in assessment and preparation for IELTS, and Cambridge qualifications from level A2 to C2.

I offer individually tailored lessons in English, drawing on my extensive experience researching, teaching and assessing the subject at the University of Cambridge — from which I am about to obtain a PhD, hold an MPhil, and where I have for the past almost four years provided instruction and dissertation supervision to undergraduate students, as well as assessed applicant entrance examinations. As such, I have taught both more general modules within literary, linguistic and cultural history, theory and analysis (among them 'Practical Criticism & Critical Practice I' and 'II') and more specialist papers and dissertations, particularly within the period 1830–Present (such as 'English Literature & Its Contexts 1830–1945' and 'English Literature & Its Contexts 1870–Present), and assessed for a range of examinations (including the 'CELAT' and 'CMLAT').

I have particular experience imparting and improving students' critical, analytical, reading and writing skills, all of which can be transferred across subjects and be of aid with extended pieces of coursework, assignments and examinations alike. I assist regularly both at and outside of Cambridge with a wide variety of academic, critical and creative pieces of work (including the occasional PhD dissertation; numerous academic manuscripts, editorial and publishing briefs; MA dissertations and papers; BA dissertations, papers, portfolios and assignments; A-Level EPQs; IB EEs; NEAs; and more — including within disciplines that do not immediately seem especially related to my own, with essential academic skills being, after all, highly transferable!).
