About Me
I'm originally from the London area where I worked for 25 years as an IT project manager for the UK's largest supermarket company. In the mid 1990's I changed career and having gained a Diploma in Practice management became a Medical Center Practice Manager in Broxbourne and then Northolt in west London. I came to Belgium in 2000 and continued to commute to Norholt during the week.
In 2002 I decided to join my partner at her language school, Let's Speak Good English in Ophain BSI developing Business English classes. Over the past 18 years I have run courses for Business people ranging from Doctors, Engineers, Pharmacists, and Pilots. I have also taught English in a number of major companies, for example Siemens, GSK, UCB, Bobcat plus a number of small independent companies. I am also experienced in preparing teenagers for examinations so that they can study in the UK or USA plus helping them prepare their application's ant letters of motivation. My lessons are generally based around real life situations with lots of conversation, video and audio work. Above all they must be fun.
Education
Attended Northwest Kent Technical college whilst working for BICC. I completed my ONC in mechanical and electrical engineering and then changed career to become a computer operator for Tesco Stores LTD where I worked for 25 years in various management positions. My last role in the company was as an IT project manager responsible for the installation of IT systems into supermarkets and distribution centres across the UK. Whilst at Tesco's I attended numerous management courses and when I left the company I went back into education to gain my diploma in practice management.

I am a qualified English teacher from England. I obtained my bachelor's degree in linguistics at Lancaster University (UK) and will soon have my master's degree. I have been teaching English for over 3 years to students who wish to improve their English language skills or become bilingual. All my students are satisfied with my course and those who had entrance exams have passed successfully. There is nothing like having English lessons with a qualified English speaker ;-) I have done all my studies in English and in the United Kingdom, I consider English as being my first language among all the other ones I have learned. Being a "native" speaker for me is meaningless, the qualifications are the most important as well as the experience (you could have a "native" speaker who makes a lot of mistakes because this person is not qualified in teaching).

The price of the lessons is moderate compared to the effectiveness of my courses. I use a variety of methods and can easily adapt to the needs of the student. I offer courses at all levels (beginner, advanced to university level) as well as English courses for IELTS/TOEFL, A-LEVELS or correction of written works.

I have worked with children as well as teenagers and adults. My 3 years of experience as a teacher in England have helped me to develop the qualities necessary to motivate my students and teach them effectively.


I can deliver the lessons online anywhere in the world.

Do not hesitate to contact me to book a lesson, places are quickly taken. If your desired time slot wouldn't be available, I would do my best to adapt myself to your schedule and I would refer you to some of my colleagues. ;-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

See you soon!
