Lia Smith

I’m a law student with a genuine love for English and helping others learn. At school, I achieved an A in National 5 English, a B at Higher, and studied Advanced Higher. I know first-hand how challenging English can feel sometimes, but I also know how rewarding it is when things finally click.

My lessons are relaxed, friendly, and tailored to you. We’ll work on whatever areas you want to improve, whether that’s grammar, essay writing, exam prep, or just feeling more confident speaking. If you’re working towards school qualifications, I can share the tips and techniques that helped me. If you’re focusing on everyday English, we can build skills through conversation, role-play, and fun activities.

I adapt my approach to suit each student’s personality. Some people like a fast pace, others need more time, and that’s okay. I’m especially good at encouraging quieter or more nervous learners to speak up without feeling pressured. My aim is to make lessons a safe space where you can make mistakes, learn from them, and see your progress over time.

Every session is interactive, with a mix of discussion, practice tasks, and feedback. I want you to leave each lesson feeling like you’ve genuinely learned something and moved a step closer to your goal and feel proud of yourself for getting the help to reach those goals.

Whether you need help passing an exam or just want to improve your skills, I’ll be there to guide you, encourage you, and make the process as enjoyable as possible.
