About Gemma
- What kind of experience do you have?
I have over seven years teaching experience, both in the UK and overseas.
My experiences as an English teacher are varied. This includes: teaching classes to a group of 50 Chinese University students in Southern China, working as a business English teacher with clients from some of the top industries in Paris and running a successful freelance tutoring business in London.
Most recently I have been teaching young people (11-16) online. This could be general English, academic English or interview and entrance exam preparation for independent schools. I have supported a number of successful student applications to some of the top schools in the country, such as Canford, Oundle, Kings School, Marlborough College and Rugby school.

ENGLISH LESSONS
I teach 2 hour classes, as I feel this gives us more time to be productive.
I charge £35 online and £45 face-to-face (to cover my travel costs). I also offer attractive discounts for block booking of lessons.
I include a FREE 45 min trial lesson, which is an opportunity to meet and discuss your needs in more detail.
If you would like group lessons, please email me to discuss prices.

Gemma gave me academic writing lessons during the final year of my Linguistics Degree at Birkbeck. I handed in my essays a few weeks ago and I'm confident I'll do really well!
My English has improved a lot since I started my lessons with Gemma. She helped me to get a job as a waiter in a Spanish restaurant.
