About Andy
I am passionate about my subject and have a wide-ranging experience of teaching English, both as a foreign language to international students, as well as British exam qualifications such as GCSE, A-Level, IB. I am fully qualified in both areas, having gained my CELTA EFL course back in 2001 and PGCE in 2006. Along with a wealth of experience, I bring enthusiasm and a fun, engaging teaching style to my lessons. I have a great track record of improving students’ learning outcomes. I am available to teach at evenings (from 5pm onwards) or anytime at weekends. Away from teaching I enjoy wild swimming, football and spending time with my young family. Get in touch for a chat!

My students gain from a fun, personable style of teaching and my significant experience. I started my career, teaching English as a foreign language, working for several years with international students of all ages in England, Spain and South Korea, meaning I’m knowledgeable about EFL exams, such as FCE, TOEFL, IELTS and have an excellent knowledge of English grammar. Over the past 16 years I have taught English Language and Literature to students from 11-18 at Key Stage Three, GCSE, A-Level and IB, and know each of these qualifications thoroughly. I am based near St Andrews in Fife and can host online lessons. I have a proven track record of helping my students improve and am confident you will enjoy lessons. I can tailor to your individual needs; lessons are normally 60 minutes in length. I work with all ages and abilities and guarantee you won’t be disappointed!

I had the pleasure in studying under the teaching and guidance of Andrew Proudfoot for my final years of high school, I started off as a student with no motivation nor sufficient skills in English, however after 2 years with the enthusiasm and experience that Mr proudfoot brought to every lesson I grew more confident in myself not only as a English student but as a person as a whole, Andrew has a brilliant grasp on English teaching and of the IB curriculum that led me and many of my peers to achieve grades beyond what we had initially thought possible. Mr proudfoot is a teacher that leaves an impact on you, his methods of teaching are uniquely engaging where they force you to engage urself with literature due to his shared knowledge and skills.
Mr Proudfoot was my Sixth Form English Language and Literature Teacher. He always made English the most enjoyable lesson of the day through his good humour and dedication to the subject. He consistently provided in depth, personalised feedback with Mr P’s top tips. Importantly, he helps to break down quotations, themes, terminology and questions in a way that anyone can understand. I highly recommend Mr Proudfoot’s lessons due to the high class average scores that he produced while maintaining a fun learning environment. My own grades improved immensely with Mr Proudfoot’s support and inspirational teaching style. Thank you Mr P!
I had the pleasure of being taught by Mr Proudfoot for 2 years during my time studying ib language and literature. During that time, Mr Proudfoot made what was admittedly my least favourite subject into something I enjoyed, and looked forward to...even first thing in the morning. Mr Proudfoot provides a fun and equally insightful twist to his teaching and has taught english around the world, to both native and novice speakers. His genuine care for his students is always evident and his unique experiences are clearly illustrated in his adaptability for his student's needs, helping them in their individual weaknesses.
