Advert description
I am TEFL/TESOL qualified and will begin my CELTA course in September 2026, continuing to develop my teaching skills and methodology.
I currently volunteer teaching English to asylum seekers and refugees, supporting learners from a range of backgrounds and English levels to develop their communication skills and confidence.
I also have experience teaching English in Madrid, Spain, where I taught both a child and her parents as an au pair.
In addition, I have supported English learners through language-exchange platforms including Tandem and ConversationExchange.
Because I have learned Spanish myself, I understand the challenges that come with learning another language — from building vocabulary and understanding grammar to the much harder part of actually speaking without worrying about making mistakes.
Whether you're looking to improve your everyday English, become more fluent in conversation, build confidence, or simply have someone to practise speaking with, I'll adapt our lessons to your level and goals.
My lessons are built around natural conversation, but there is always a clear purpose behind what we do.
Each lesson is tailored to your level, interests and goals, with a focus on helping you:
🗣️ Speak more fluently and confidently
📚 Build useful vocabulary and expressions
✏️ Improve grammar and accuracy
🇬🇧 Understand natural, everyday English
🔊 Improve your pronunciation
💬 Feel more comfortable speaking spontaneously
I won't interrupt you every few seconds to correct every mistake. Instead, I'll listen carefully and make notes while you speak, then give you personalised corrections and feedback so you can communicate naturally while still improving your accuracy.
After each lesson, I'll send you a useful lesson summary with new vocabulary, expressions and corrections from our conversation. If you'd like extra practice, I can also provide optional homework with feedback.
You can also tell me what you'd like to work on between lessons, and I'm happy to adapt future classes around your goals.
Let's make English something you actually enjoy using.
If you're ready to stop worrying about making mistakes and start feeling more confident when you speak English, book a trial lesson with me and let's get started!
