I have over 4 years of experience in teaching and tutoring English as a second language. I am currently a PhD researcher at King’s College London and run this tutoring business on the side, as I enjoy motivating students to learn new skills and overcome challenges.

I have studied English language and literature for all of my academic life and being multi-lingual (Fluent in Dutch and Sinhala), I understand how difficult it is to learn a language as a complete beginner. I am an empathetic and understanding teacher, but I also know how to push your limits and show you what you are capable of.

I will assign some, flexible homework for out of class, but most of the content will be addressed in the lesson. I am available to teach all levels of English or aid in English literature, but please message me for more information!

Are you having difficulties analysing texts, poems and prose in your IGCSE English, IB English Literature or IB LangLit course? Are you ready to commit an hour every week over the summer to get that 6 or 7 and get into the university of your dreams? Then this is the course for you!

From helping you master the general techniques of literary analysis and teaching you how to compare literary works to answer exam questions on character development, theme and techniques, my course will provide you with all the tools and knowledge you need to dazzle even the most demanding IB examiner. The combination of my passion for writing prose and poetry and my deep understanding of IB marking criteria thanks to great teachers and thoughtful research means that I am uniquely placed to not only explain what your answers were lacking, but also show you how thinking like a writer can help you dramatically improve your answers.

Following a thorough discussion of your individual needs in our first class, I will create for you an engaging but exam-focused programme drawing on my 3-year experience as a tutor and using interactive teaching platforms. Through my course, you will get access to a vast library of resources (at no extra cost) - from official IB textbooks and past papers to teacher guidance - to help you perfect both your analytical and essay-writing skills. And if English is your second language, I will show you what to focus on in your learning so that you could write better than Shakespeare!

Are you ready to turn the page on disappointing grades in the past? Then contact me today!

I am a qualified English teacher originally from Wales in the UK. I hold a CELTA as well as a Bachelor and Masters degree. I originally trained as an opera singer and I enjoy listening and playing music, watching films, baking, running and yoga. I like to bring elements of mine and my student's hobbies into the lesson because the improvements tend to be greater when everyone is enjoying themselves. I'm a reliable and kind person, and I like to help people. I have a wealth of teaching experience that ranges from roles such as Learning Support Worker to Singing Teacher and Singing Workshop Leader to English Teacher and also Head of English. I have worked with a wide age range of students and feel comfortable assisting those with extra needs. I have also been a language student myself when I was learning German and Italian. I have great empathy with the challenges of learning a language and how personal they can be. I aim to make lessons fun and tailored to the students interests and needs and I am very excited to have the opportunity to help people improve their English skills.

This class will help you understand when and how to use it correctly in real-life conversations. You will learn how to:

✅ Talk about past experiences without a specific time (e.g., "I have visited Paris.")
✅ Describe life achievements and ongoing situations (e.g., "I have worked here for five years.")
✅ Understand the difference between Present Perfect and Past Simple
✅ Use common time expressions like already, yet, just, ever, never, for, and since

Through interactive exercises and speaking practice, you'll gain confidence using the Present Perfect in professional and everyday situations. Ideal for intermediate learners who want to improve their fluency!

Early Literacy is fundamental for preparing students for primary school and beyond -- creating developmentally appropriate, structured, and fun lesson plans to support literacy can have an outsize impact in instilling a joy of learning and a sense of confidence in early readers. With a background in English Literature and teaching, I specialize in early learners and students for whom reading may feel intimidating. I will provide worksheets, activities, games, and work with parents to learn about what activities and topics are the most engaging for their student.
