About Me

Hi, I'm Lindy - a TESOL trained teacher with a degree in English and Linguistics. I love language, travel and talking to the world's citizens! I have taught business, general and IELTS English; kids and adults; beginners and advanced.

I'm a New Zealander who has been travelling the world for the last 17 years. I am currently living on the south-east coast of England desperate for some European sunshine......

I taught English for 3 years in Hanoi, Vietnam and in Paris, France. Here in the UK, I work in Marketing and do various copywriting and editing assignments: websites, promotional material, blogs, and professional documents. Teaching, writing and people are my passions.

I am a very relaxed person who is interested in the different lives of people around the world. I love sports; rugby, snowboarding and trail running; simple living/minimalism; cooking; gardening; extreme adventures; veganism; discovering new food, alternative ideas and philosophy.

I can help with grammar, expression, fluency and correcting those persistent errors. I love grammar - but also a really good chat - so I can help with both. Anyone can speak another language - you just need to have the right motivation and to be brave enough to try!! Let's go!
