About Me
Following my many experiences as a student, during which I regularly gave support lessons, I acquired a taste for the learning process and I am delighted to be able to help students in difficulty.
Patient and able to adapt to everyone's needs, I make sure to give my students the ability to be independent in their school activities or their personal projects.

Studied software engineering at HEIG-VD
Studied law and political science at the University of Lausanne
Maturity option biology-chemistry at the Gymnase de Burier

English is a key language for your development. Let me help you on your journey towards a qualification or just general fluency.

I am a graduate of international relations from Scotland and currently work as an English Language Assisant at EPCA in Aigle. I have over one year's experience teaching English as a second foreign language and have helped sudents pass their Delf B2 and university english proficiency exams (TOEFL, IELTS and the new Duolingo). I have done this in structured formal teaching environments and in informal private lessons. I have taught in the international school sector and I have worked with students from the age of 4 to 64.

It's never too late to improve!

L'anglais est une langue essentiel pour votre développement personnel et professionnel. Laissez-moi vous aider sur votre périple envers un diplôme spécifique ou juste pour votre connaissance générale.

J'ai fait des études en relations internationales en Ecosse, et en ce moment je travaille comme assistante de langue à L'EPCA à Aigle. J'ai plus d'un an d'expérience à enseigner l'anglais comme une deuxième langue et j'ai aidé des étudiants à passer leur DELF B2 et des examens spécifiques pour l'entrée à l'université (TOEFL, IELTS, et le nouveau Duolingo). J'ai de l'expérience dans l'enseignement professionnel et dans un cadre informel de tutorat. J'ai aussi enseigné dans le secteur des écoles internationales et j'ai travaillé avec des étudiants entre l'âge de 4 et 64 ans.

Il n'est jamais trop tard pour vous de progresser!

Petra
Hello, I'm Petra — a native English speaker and qualified primary teacher with over 30 years of classroom experience in British and international schools. I specialise in literacy development and English as an Additional Language (EAL), helping children build strong reading, writing, and communication skills with confidence.
I hold a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education) from Kingston University and a BA (Hons) in Humanities from the University of Greenwich, and I am authorised to teach in private schools in the Canton of Vaud. Since 2007, I have worked at Haut-Lac Bilingual School in St-Légier as an EAL teacher and school Literacy Coordinator, supporting multilingual students and children with special educational needs (SEN) alongside my earlier years teaching the full English National Curriculum at primary schools in the UK.
What I love most about teaching is that shift in confidence in every lesson. My approach is patient, structured, and warm: I create a calm, encouraging environment where children feel safe to try, make mistakes, and grow. Lessons are always tailored to the individual child, whether that means phonics and early reading, exam preparation, or targeted support for a child who is finding English challenging.
I am fluent in French (C1) and understand first-hand what it feels like to learn and teach across languages and cultures — a perspective I bring to every lesson with non-native English speakers and their families.
I look forward to helping your child build the English skills and confidence they need to succeed, both in and beyond the classroom.
