I encourage students and build their confidence by tailoring classes and interactions to each individual according to their needs and preferences. I have a lot of varied experience which makes me a flexible and communicative teacher you can feel comfortable with.
I am an EFL/ESOL tutor and have taught English since 1997. I have taught general/business/exam/conversation/bespoke classes to 1-200 students aged 2-80 in schools and privately in England and Japan. I have taught mono-lingual groups of Japanese/Italian/Spanish/Korean students and multi-lingual groups. For the last 12 years I have been raising children and honing my educative and interpersonal skills.
Discounts for new student introductions.
