Improve Your English Grammar with Clear, Personalized Lessons in Writing and Speaking (with a Canadian Accent)

From 25 £ /h

Hello!

I’m an ESOL tutor with a Master of Education in TESL and almost 10 years of teaching experience.

My focus is on personalized learning—I will help you to understand any grammar concepts that you currently struggle with, and I will teach you the language skills that you want to learn. We will start by talking about where your writing and speaking skills are now, then create a plan together for filling in the gaps in your knowledge. I promise to explain things to you simply and clearly!

I have a Canadian accent, which many people find neutral and easy to understand, making it ideal for students who want to improve their pronunciation and fluency. I’m also a friendly conversationalist, so I'll keep things relaxed and fun while you improve your English.

Whether you’re focusing on grammar, writing, or just getting more comfortable with speaking, I’m here to help you improve and to enjoy the process.

I’m excited to meet you and to work together on achieving your personal language goals!

Do you need help with your conversational English? Or write documents and emails in English?
I learned several foreign languages, I passed it! I can help you anticipate your mistakes and give you “tips” to improve your learning. I am French, which is my native language, and I also speak Spanish fluently.

We will determine together the best approach and format according to your profile, level and preferences (conversational, written, assignments, etc.).

Quel que soit votre âge, quel que soit votre level, nous définirons ensemble vos axes d'amélioration et la meilleure façon d'learn ensemble (oral, écrit, préparations de cours, etc.).
Étant moi-même française, je peux vous aider à anticipar vos erreurs et à identifier les meilleurs moyens mnémotechniques pour améliorer your level.
Je parle l'anglais et l'espagnol couramment.

The first stage is to define your level and your objectives. Together, we will determine the format and frequency that is necessary to improve your conversational and written level.
Because I speak Spanish, I can help you prevent your mistakes with “tricks” that I use when learning languages!

A good grasp and understanding of key concepts in English language and literature is crucial to communicating ideas well and attaining the best grades in any subject field. Good communication skills set students up for future successes in life and in work.

I teach students English and English grammar from rudimentary to degree level, and help students learn how to analyse English texts. I can teach all abilities, from primary school age up to degree level.

I have a degree in English Literature from Newcastle University (2.1, BA (Hons)). I have used my skills in English to go on to study Law and now work in the legal sector, at an international law firm. My English skills are something that have proved invaluable in anything I've undertaken, such as job applications and completing university essays.

I use my own resources along with any material that students need to cover to thoroughly prepare them for exams and for their future.

Languages are a powerful instrument to use in our mundane environment. Speaking a language is different from being at ease with it. Here you will be able to learn the basics of English, French, and Chinese; however, do not underestimate the banality of the basics. You will not only learn the language by books and texts, but you will also be learning from the country itself, enriched with culture, as well as the people, the way they think, speak, and much more.

Please do not underestimate your language skills. Join this class to reinforce your capacities and watch your abilities flourish.

Grammar can be a difficult concept to master, especially since there are various rules to remember. This class will cover word types such as nouns and pronouns as well punctuation. Mastery in grammar is applicable to all other subjects whether it is writing an essay in English or labelling a graph in Science. I ensure that my lessons are interactive and engaging as active learning is significant for achieving understanding and applying knowledge.
