About Me

I'm an artist, traveller and teacher from the UK who loves writing, painting and photography. I don't have a permanent address and live a nomadic lifestyle, so be prepared to speak to me with a different "classroom" background in most classes! I love languages and teaching English is a great passion of mine.

I first qualified as an English language teacher in 2010 and had my first job teaching international students in Sydney, Australia. I moved to London after this and worked in many language centres there, before getting a job as a tutor of business and academic English at a business university in central London. I worked there for 3 years, then moved to Taiwan to teach English to children! In April 2016, I discovered online teaching and have been a web-based teacher ever since.

My lessons are natural and organic - I like to listen to you, discover your preferred learning style and identify the areas you need to improve. When you book a class, please specify what you'd like to focus on for that lesson:

Conversation classes: We speak about topics that interest you and I correct your mistakes, plus give new vocabulary and phrases.
Grammar focus: In these classes we use online materials and Murphy's "Grammar in Use" book to study English in detail.
Exam Preparation: We use materials I've created to practise exam questions and simulate speaking tests.
