自己紹介
I've been helping people to 'be themselves' in English for over 10 years and am particularly experienced in teaching learners with ASD/ADHD/Audhd.
Here are some lesson styles that work well for for my neurodiverse learners.
- Clear routines and expectations
- Flexible formats for participation (text chat or speaking)
- Low-sensory environments (you can keep your camera off or bring something with you to occupy hands - knitting, fidgets)
- Processing time
- Use of visuals and written support
- Special Interest-based learning. (Tell me what interests you and I will find a way for you to learn English from it.)
- Help with managing the tendency towards perfectionism in English language learning
- Help with how to express any of your ND needs in English. Overwhelm, etc. And how to express this in the workplace.
- No small talk between us if you don't want it :) (Instead I will teach you some rules of small talk in the UK if you want).
- Detailed help of idioms which can be confusing for ND learners.
Outside Verbling, I work full time as a Business English Trainer, content producer, Masterclass deliverer, and student support helpdesk assistant, for a leading language course provider, Speexx. https://www.speexx.com/
Here are some masterclasses that I have created and delivered recently on multiculturalism that will give you an idea of me as a speaker:
How multiculturalism shapes our work:
https://www.speexx.com/resources/webinars/how-multilingualism-shapes-our-work
Multicultural Leadership:
https://www.speexx.com/it/risorse/webinars/masterclass-multicultural-leadership/
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
My rates include my preparation time, and homework correction time. I make detailed notes during each lesson while you speak, and at the end of the lesson we discuss your errors. We have a shared file for the duration of your lessons with me where I store all your language notes for you to keep.
ERROR REVIEW:
At the beginning of your next lesson we review the errors from the previous lesson. I create flashcards for you of any new vocabulary that comes up in the session. I will periodically test you on these.
HOMEWORK:
I set homework at the end of each lesson (unless you specifically ask me not to) and we discuss it together at the beginning of the next lesson.
MATERIALS:
I use a variety of speaking prompts, and listening material chosen specifically for each student to give you exposure to different accents, such as TED talks, youtube videos, TV series, and news websites. You progress using authentic material. I want to help you to enjoy English and if I find something online that makes me think of your needs then I will send it to you via Verbling chat.
WRITING:
I'm a professional writer (technical and creative) with over 10 years experience writing for different companies so I can help you improve your writing for job applications, CVs, emails, academic essays, written exam papers, and more. Any Cambridge or Trinity ISE students can use the lessons as exam prep, doing exam simulations together so you can get an idea of what the exam will be like.
HOW TO BE MYSELF IN ENGLISH:
I use thought-provoking material which helps you to express your personality through English and I help you find ways to show your opinion. I have interesting discussions with my students about a range of topics and I give you the tools to speak English with more expression and emphasis, and to tailor your English for different situations. You get the opportunity to put vocabulary and grammar into spoken practice. You will study real everyday English and I will encourage you to use more interesting and expressive vocabulary so that you can really be yourself in another language.
ABOUT ME:
I am a mother tongue English speaker from Wales in the UK with a British English accent. I have a CELTA (pass A) from International House in Sicily, and have worked for the well-known International House in Bristol in the UK. I put a lot of time and energy into making a lesson that is right for you. There's no better job than helping someone reach a goal.
Currently learning BSL and LIS (Lingua Italiana dei Segni - Italian Sign Language).
Before becoming a teacher I worked as a translator, an education consultant for Oxford University Press, a technical writer, an editor, and a short-story judge, so I have always worked with the English language in one way or another and have experience in using it in different industries for different purposes. I love language and the power it has to change people's lives, careers, and relationships.
EXAM PRE:
I do speaking exam simulations for Cambridge PET/CAE/CPE and Trinity ISE I, II, or III exam, and IELTS.
I can provide exam techniques for the the reading and writing sections. I give you reading homework and writing activities to prepare you.
MORE ON NEURODIVERGENCE / COMMUNICATION ANXIETY
If you have any issues with communication then I can help you learn English in a calm and relaxed way, with very simple and clear instructions, and an awareness of the difficulties that you may have. I grew up in a family with various types of neurodivergence. Maybe you need help with the recognition of non-verbal cues such as facial expressions, how we use pauses and interjections in general conversation, and the subtle difference in tones of voice in English. We can practice this in a safe, relaxed space with different role plays of real life situations. I have over 7 years’ experience of volunteering with the National Autistic Society and am trained as an online communicator for children and adults on the autistic spectrum. Previous experience and training as a project manager for an online counselling charity has meant that I have been given 1-1 students in the past who experienced too much anxiety to work in a conventional class environment. During my lessons if you need to stop before the end of the hour because of anxiety issues then I will refund you for any time that you did not use.
Please contact me via a message on Verbling to discuss your individual needs.
