About James
I am an experienced educator based in Cambridge with over 20 years of work in international education, language support, and academic guidance. I have led ESL/EAL departments in both the UK and China, and I hold an MA in Applied Linguistics and the Trinity DipTESOL. My career has focused on helping multilingual learners succeed academically and feel confident in British educational settings.
I choose to tutor because I genuinely enjoy supporting learners one-to-one, where progress is visible, personal, and meaningful. Teaching English, British culture, and UCAS skills allows me to combine my expertise with my passion for helping students achieve their goals, whether that’s improving fluency, settling into life in the UK, or securing a place at university. I work with learners aged 15 and above who want structured, supportive lessons that build real confidence and independence.
About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
I take a personalised, learner-centred approach that adapts to each student’s goals, background, and preferred learning style. My lessons combine clear language input, structured practice, and meaningful communication tasks, helping learners build confidence in real-world English. When teaching British culture, I use authentic materials and discussion-based activities to deepen understanding of life, study, and communication in the UK. For UCAS support, I guide students through every stage of the process, from course choices to crafting strong personal statements.
Each lesson lasts 50 minutes, allowing for focused learning without overload. I work with students aged 15 and above, including GCSE and A-level pupils, international school students, university applicants, and adult learners.
I bring over 15 years of experience in international education, including leading ESL/EAL departments in the UK and China. I hold an MA in Applied Linguistics and the Trinity DipTESOL, and have extensive experience in academic support, curriculum design, and helping international learners succeed in British schools and universities.
