About Me
I have multiple years of experience working with families and educating children. I have studied family dynamics, child psychology and the art of communication and emotional intelligence. I closely follow the Love and Logic platform which, in my experience, provides healthy habits for ultimate growth and connection between parents, their children and their caretaker. I am patient, assertive, flexible and value fostering independence with children. My passion is creating art (playing music, drawing, dancing, painting, poetry etc) and this is often involved with my care taking. My top priorities are being safe, healthy and happy! Working with young, new minds is a beautiful privilege that has changed me in amazing ways. I am looking for a family with a similar focus on nurturing emotional growth and encouraging education and the arts.
Education
Education is a life long pursuit of mine, I am a very self motivated learner. I have taught myself a variety of skills including nutrition, sewing (pattern and costume making), photography and a variety of musical instruments. I have recorded, designed and released my own albums and a book of photographs. I am well versed in the arts, natural horsemanship, British history and simple mechanics.

Effortless English Language Learning

is my favourite method of teaching people USEFUL English to help them become confident English speakers fast, without studying or effort.


Here is how you will learn if you choose to take this Course:
During each session:

STEP 1: I ask you "appropriate" questions to what's most important to you in your life.

STEP 2: You reply as good as you can.

STEP 3: I correct your English where necessary, your pronunciation if needed, and help you say what you actually are trying to say (FYI: I have 18 years of experience in teaching English ).

STEP 4: Together we create a script, a piece of text, for your next 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 5: After the session I professionally record your tailor-made 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 6: Your task is to listen to that ListeningExercise for 10 minutes every day with headphones.

STEP 7: A week later (or less), you take your next session with me where you show me how well you can say your 1-minute English ListeningExercise from memory and we repeat the process.


It doesn't matter if you have a beginner or mid-intermediate English level, if you follow these steps, then there is no need to focus on English grammar or sentence structure because that will come automatically to you.

That's what I want for you:
to acquire a natural English awareness that is focused and useful to your situation in your life, not mine, so that you can become the confident English speaker you intend to become and USE the English you've learnt on a daily basis.

I'll be there for you as your English language coach and lift you up each time you need it or request it.

So if you are looking for a 5-star teacher to improve your English fast, I AM that guy.
That may sound arrogant but I strongly believe in myself and my teaching methods.
And this is what sets me apart from rest.

And if you also believe I am all of that, and you are committed to learning English and know what you want in life and where you're going, I am sure you'll give it a try.

Life is simple.
